Our story

Built for the way Namibia actually connects.

Mbutosowa is a Namibian-owned company headquartered in Windhoek, Namibia. As recorded with BIPA, our registered activities span education, transport and logistics, catering, baking, information technology, digital and electronic services, web development, security, cleaning, and printing and design.

That range came from paying attention. Wherever we looked, the technology being sold to Namibian institutions was built somewhere else, for a different set of problems — it assumed reliable connectivity, and it rarely spoke to what people here actually needed day to day. The idea for an all-in-one, offline-first platform grew directly out of that gap: if the tools available weren't built with Namibia's realities in mind, we would build ones that were.

That thinking became NamibSIS — designed offline-first from day one, not as an afterthought for when the network drops.

Our mission is to plant and nurture a lasting technological community in Namibia.

Every sector we work in is a root toward that same goal.
Founder

Started by someone who saw the gap first-hand.

Manfred Jeremia

Founder, Mbutosowa Trading Enterprises CC

Manfred founded Mbutosowa to close a gap he kept running into: Namibian schools and institutions being asked to adopt technology that wasn't built with their conditions in mind. That observation became the company's mission, and later, NamibSIS.

Why offline-first

Most systems built for schools assume steady connectivity. In much of Namibia, that assumption doesn't hold — so NamibSIS was designed the other way around: keep working when the network doesn't.

Records stay accessible on-site, even during connectivity gaps
Data syncs automatically once a connection is back
Priced for small and medium institutions, not just large ones
Built and supported locally, from Namibia
Let's work together

Bring your school, or your institution, into one system.

Whether you're a school administrator exploring NamibSIS or an organisation looking for a Namibian partner across our other service lines, we'd like to hear from you.
