About KZL
Kalahariben Zambia Ltd (KZL) is a consulting and digital systems company. We draw on real
operator experience in mining, construction, logistics and tourism to help owners
stabilise and grow.
We sit between traditional consulting and in-house leadership: close enough to understand
the daily pressure, lean enough to be affordable, and technical enough to implement AI
solutions that actually work on the ground.
KZL is built on hard lessons from running multi-entity, multi-country operations. The
focus is practical: clean numbers, clear roles, simple dashboards, and AI tools your team
can actually use without being “technical”.
Where we operate
Zambia: Full service offering, with on-site and remote work available.
Strong focus on mining services, construction, logistics and tourism.
Botswana: Support for tourism, safari and lodge operations, as well as
cross-border structuring between Zambia, Botswana and South Africa.
South Africa & region: Remote-first engagements focused on property,
consulting and asset-holding structures linked to the region.
Travel for on-site work is available by arrangement. Most AI and reporting systems can be
deployed remotely with simple, secure access to your existing tools.
