Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off to kick-off in Oshakati
Platform for informal traders to use their skills
Launched in May, the Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off for 2023 has its first preliminary round in Oshakati on Saturday (17 June) where more than 150 kapana chefs are expected to showcase their preparation skills.
The competition, which is in its ninth year, consists of three preliminary rounds in the north, coast, and central regions of Namibia. Three finalists from each region will be selected to take part in the final. Thereafter, the overall winner will walk away with a cash prize of N$10 000 as well as a fully furnished mobile food truck worth N$100 000.
Nedbank Namibia manager for communication and PR, Selma Kaulinge, said the competition holds significance especially in the northern region where it originated nine years ago. “Through this competition, we have provided a platform for informal traders to use their skills and stand a chance at winning themselves the grand prize which will enable them to start their own venture and contribute to their communities,” she said.
The competition will continue with the coastal round in Walvis Bay on Saturday, 8 July, the central round in Windhoek on Saturday, 5 August, and with the final slated for Saturday, 26 August at the Ongwediva Trade Fair.
While entries have closed for the northern round, kapana braaiers can still enter for the coastal round until 30 June and for the central round until 28 July.
