Established in 1998, Marine Ropes International (Pty) Ltd commenced operations as a manufacturer of high-quality synthetic ropes and twines in Walvis Bay, Namibia, under the Government's Export Processing Zones (EPZ) initiative. The EPZ Act of 1995 aimed to foster export-led industrialization and attract foreign investment to Namibia. Marine Ropes emerged as one of the few successful EPZ companies, becoming a vital contributor to Namibia’s manufacturing and export sectors. Our commitment to quality and innovation has helped us stay at the forefront of the industry, allowing us to adapt to changing market demands and technological advancements.
After a change in ownership, Marine Ropes transitioned to a 100% Namibian-owned entity and was rebranded as Marine Ropes cc. Since this pivotal moment, the company has evolved into a premier supplier of synthetic ropes, mooring lines, braids, and various related equipment, serving the fishing, mining, and maritime industries across Namibia and Southern Africa. Our strategic location near the bustling port of Walvis Bay allows Marine Ropes to facilitate international trade routes through the southern tip of Africa, enhancing our capacity to meet the diverse needs of our clientele.
From humble beginnings as a local rope manufacturer, Marine Ropes has transformed into a trusted importer and exporter of premium-quality ropes and industry-related hardware. Over the years, we have built a solid reputation for quality, reliability, and exceptional customer satisfaction. Our journey is marked by numerous milestones, including expansion into new markets, development of innovative products, and establishment of strategic partnerships that have solidified our position in the industry.
Our prime location in Walvis Bay grants access to one of Southern Africa’s most important ports, enabling us to efficiently support both local and international shipping routes. This ensures that vessels receive premium mooring ropes, rigging equipment, and other essentials without delay. Furthermore, our proximity to key industries allows us to respond swiftly to market demands and maintain a steady supply chain, crucial for operations that rely on timely deliveries.
In response to increasing demand, we proudly opened a new branch in Windhoek, Namibia, operating as Lifting Gear Namibia cc. This new location enhances accessibility for our inland clients, especially those in the mining, logistics, and industrial sectors. The Windhoek branch allows us to serve a broader customer base, providing essential equipment to support their operational needs.
With this closer proximity, we offer faster delivery times and improved service quality. Our Windhoek store stocks a wide array of synthetic ropes, rigging equipment, lifting gear, and industrial hardware. Additionally, we have implemented advanced inventory management systems to ensure that our customers have access to the products they need when they need them.
