Rendeavour is a private limited liability company incorporated in Bermuda and is a leading investor in East and West African urban development projects. Rendeavour is one of the largest diversified pan-African land platforms focused on providing high quality infrastructure, planning and urban management to create the foundation for satellite cities that reverse the current trend of unplanned development and urban congestion in Africa.
In East Africa, Rendeavour has majority ownership of companies that have land assets of over 4,000 hectares located in Kenya and over 4,400 hectares in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In West Africa, Rendeavour is the lead investor in two urban development projects in Ghana measuring over 1,650 hectares in total, and two in Nigeria measuring over 1,700 hectares in total.
The core business model of Rendeavour is to acquire large tracts of undeveloped land, hold for capital appreciation, masterplan, provide bulk infrastructure and either develop or sell the land to developers, corporates and individuals. Rendeavour also generates revenue from the provision of utilities (electricity, water and sewerage) mostly to commercial and industrial clients and the sale of coffee.
Rendeavour holds its investments through a range of long-term leases, land held for investment purposes and other interests in land, in each case dependent on the nature of the project and local law and regulation.
