Hospitality industry experts have highlighted a discrepancy between the two-percent official GDP contribution from that sector, compared to their 17% prediction, largely due to the non-visible activities from unregistered operators.
Simonis Storm Securities noted revenue generated from unregistered accommodation providers, informal tour operators, and countless small businesses serving travellers.
Economist, Almandro Jansen said when tourists spend on transport, food, fuel, and retail across extended value chains, these multiplier effects rarely appear in formal tourism accounts.
Jansen also highlighted that Namibia is rapidly becoming a global and regional filming destination, which is likely to improve tourism figures.
Jansen said overall, the hospitality sector is well positioned for a strong finish this year backed by school holidays, holiday travels, festival events happening during December.
