Discover Namibia

Unique to the entire Southern Africa, our centre is open 7 days a week all year around to provide you with a vibrant 1000m² of exhibition and manufacturing area, featuring almost 500 local, regional and international manufacturers and suppliers under one roof.

Discover the riches of our earth, or the creativity of human arts and crafts, while children and youngsters can roam freely. We have also made the shop interior wheelchair and visually impaired friendly. Naturally, we also provide facilities for pregnant and wheelchair-dependent visitors. All walks of life enjoy our friendly and relaxing atmosphere, providing a fully air-conditioned escape from the Namibian heat. Join us at our bistro bar for a nicely chilled cool drink, a snack, a range of different teas or our acclaimed filter coffee.

Experience our exclusively manual in-house weaving mill (from processing the virgin wool to spinning, washing and weaving) live on six days a week, featuring 25 expert artists working with genuine, natural and non-dyed Namibian Karakul sheep wool. Dig into our Scratch Patch of Tumbled Stones, or let us show you our exquisite ranges of gold and silver jewellery, minerals from Tsumeb and other kinds, an authoritative selection of Namibian and international gemstones cut in our in-house lapidary to German precision, unique hand-made necklaces, artefacts, antiquities and ethnic treasures, exciting stone and wood carvings, admirable silk and screen prints, gifts, keepsakes and souvenirs, clothing, printed matter and other reading material, hand-woven carpets from our in-house weaving mill, marble and granite products from Karibib, an exceptional variety of leather and skin articles, and much much more . . .

Henckert Tourist Centre is in operation in Namibia since 1969. Ever since, the business has provided the local and international market with various high-quality products from Namibia and international sources. For the Henckert family, representing Namibia has always been a challenge - as much as it calls for dedication and enduring creativity, it repeatedly relies on trust and courage. This shows in the committing of three generations in maintaining the high standard we are known and respected for.

We currently focus and unite close to 500 local and international suppliers, manufacturers, entrepreneurs and craftsmen under one roof.
