Elba Afrika was proud to be a sponsor of the 46th Open International Golf Tournament of Lubumbashi, held from 2 to 4 October 2025 at the iconic Golf Club Lubumbashi. This much anticipated event brought together professional and amateur players, business leaders and community partners from across the DRC, Zambia and beyond for three days of spirited competition, connection and celebration.

From early tee offs to the grand closing ceremony, the tournament offered something for everyone, including prize money for top professionals, a lively intercity challenge, daily “best approach” awards, a long drive contest and vibrant networking opportunities both on and off the green.

While some showcased serious golf talent, others may have shone more brightly in the clubhouse conversations,, but the spirit of the event was unmistakable: collaborative, welcoming and full of positive energy.

Elba Afrika was honored to stand alongside our fellow sponsors in supporting this important regional event. As always, we remain committed to building meaningful connections across business and community.

See you at the Club!

This milestone comes as we expand our footprint with a new base in Ontario and a planned relocation to Toronto. Membership of the Chamber strengthens our Canadian presence and highlights our commitment to supporting Canadian investors with projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia.

For Canadian organisations, these are some of the world’s most resource rich yet complex regions. Elba Afrika bridges that gap by providing practical, on the ground support: navigating local regulations, managing compliance, sourcing trusted suppliers, and connecting clients to reliable networks. Our role is to simplify entry into these markets, reduce risk, and help projects move forward quickly, compliantly and effectively.

By joining this influential network, we look forward to contributing our expertise, building trusted partnerships, and helping shape opportunities that deliver real impact across both continents.
