Herero Mall is an informal business area in the Katutura suburb of Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. It is situated in Clemens Kapuuo Street and was established in 2003.[1] The area was initially used by the Paramount chief of the Herero as a meeting venue.[2] Over the years small businesses started trading there, ranging from shebeens to car wash businesses.
The Herero Mall has been under a lot of controversy, since it is both a security and a health hazard. There are no toilet facilities, and the area is zoned for institutional purposes, but not for business. Technically, all traders who run businesses there are currently[update] doing so illegally.[2]
