Foundation Industries

Our development plan focuses on building an ecosystem that facilitates long-term sustainable growth and support for the residents of Sherbro Island. It will help to ensure that Sherbro’s natural environment and biodiversity is protected.

There are three priority categories of investment in
“Foundation” industries:

Tourism & related infrastructure

Sherbro Island City will become a world class premier, affordable luxury destination.

Fisheries

Already one of the primary sources of income for many islanders, we want to ensure that the fish stocks are protected for generations to come.

Speciality Agriculture

We want to help Sherbro contribute to Sierra Leone’s agricultural and food security needs.

Other strategic industries

We are also looking at education and training, media and entertainment, health, and selected technology services sectors.

These are industries that can drive longer economic growth across the island and country.
