Ukukhula okuphezulu kokuhlinzeka ngempahla phakathi neminyaka emihlanu edlule kuye kwabeka ingcindezi ekusebenzeni kwamahhotela e-Sub-Saharan Africa, nokho umbono esikhathini esimaphakathi muhle, anepayipi elisimeme kanye nezidingo eziqinile eziyisisekelo. Leli elinye lamaqiniso athakazelisayo ethulwa ngu-Xander Nijnens, iSekela likaMongameli oPhethe, i-Hotels & Hospitality Group, i-JLL Sub-Saharan Africa, esithangamini esihanjelwe ngabatshalizimali abahamba phambili bamahhotela basekhaya nabamazwe ngamazwe e-Afrika. U-Nijnens uthi abatshalizimali emkhakheni wamahhotela e-Sub-Saharan Africa banethemba ngombono walo mkhakha, nokho futhi bayavuma ukuthi ukuthola amathuba avuna ngokufanelekile kunzima kakhulu namuhla. Abatshalizimali baya ngokuya bebheka izingxenye ze-niche, izimakethe zesibili ezintsha kanye nokutholwa kwe-value-add ukuze bafinyelele imigomo yabo yokubuyisela.
Umbiko uqinisekisa okulindelwe ukuthi ukuhweba ngamahhotela kuhlale kunengcindezi phakathi nebhalansi ka-2018 nango-2019, njengoba amagumbi amasha eqhubeka nokungena emakethe. U-Nijnens uthe naphezu kwendawo yokuhweba ethulisiwe ezimakethe eziningi, kunobufakazi bokuthi imikhiqizo ebekwe kahle, esabalalisiwe, enophawu, nethuthukisiwe ingahlala idlula imakethe. "Izingxenye ezintsha ezinjengamafulethi anamasevisi kanye namahhotela asezingeni eliphezulu anenzuzo eqinile," esho. "Kubatshalizimali ababheka imakethe, izinhlobonhlobo eziningi zamathemba emakethe nokusebenza kwempahla kuletha kokubili amathuba nezinselelo."
I-JLL ibikezela ukutshalwa kwezimali kwaminyaka yonke ekuthuthukisweni kwamahhotela okungamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-1.7 ngo-2019, ngokuthengiswa kwe-investimenti ngo-2018 kwezigidi ezingu-350 zamaRandi futhi kuzokhuphukela ku-US$400 wezigidi ngo-2019. U-Nijnens uyanezela “Silindele ukuba imali nokuhweba kwempahla yamahhotela kuqhubeke futhi lokhu kuzothuthukisa amanani entengo. ukubeka izinto obala ezimakethe kanye nokunciphisa ubungozi bobunikazi. Amasu okwengeza inani azoba yindlela ephumelela kakhulu ekuthengweni kwezimpahla njengoba kushoda izimpahla ezisezingeni eliphezulu ezitholakalayo ukuze kuhwetshwe ngazo.” Izinzuzo zentuthuko ziphezulu kakhulu uma kugxilwe ekuphazamiseni umkhakha noma lapho kubhekwana nezidingo ezivelayo kanye nokuhlukanisa amaphrojekthi. Ukuguqulwa kwebhrendi kuveza amathuba aqinile emali engenayo futhi kusekelwa amabhrendi wamazwe ngamazwe esimweni sezulu samanje.
Lo mbiko ubheka nokubolekwa kwemali ngentuthuko yamahhotela e-Sub-Saharan Africa, uhlonza ukuthi amabhange aqhubekile nobuhlakani ekubolekeni nasekusebenziseni imali ngendlela efanele. "Nokho baya ngokuya benolwazi, ngokugxila kakhulu esigabeni sempahla," kusho u-Nijnens, "futhi bakhombisa inhloso enhle yokubhekana nomkhakha. Njengoba ababolekisi beba nolwazi olukhulayo, kuzoholela ekutheni amaphrojekthi angenzeka kakhulu athole uxhaso”. Omunye umkhuba inombolo yababolekisi abasha abangena kulo mkhakha ngobudlelwano babo obukhona nabadlali bezindlu abahlukahlukene, okujulisa inqwaba yababolekisi. Ngethuba lemakethe elicacile, u-Nijnens uthi iminyaka embalwa ezayo izothakazelisa ukubuka ukuze ubone ukuthi ababolekisi abahlukile nababolekisi be-mezzanine bazongena yini kulo mkhakha.
Izimakethe zezifunda ziya ngokuya zihlukahluka futhi azihambisani, futhi amathuba nobungozi esifundeni sonke ziyahlukahluka kakhulu. Ngo-2018, ukusebenza kwamahhotela kuye kwaxutshwa esifundeni sonke, ikakhulukazi ngenxa yomthelela wokunikezwa okusha okungena ezimakethe, kanye nengcindezi yesidingo sangaphandle. INtshonalanga Afrika ibone ukuthuthuka okukhulu ekusebenzeni njengoba amanani entengo yempahla ekhuphukayo kanye neminotho eminingi ethuthukayo. I-East Africa ibe nokukhula okuhle kwezidingo, nokho ukuhlala bekungaphansi kwengcindezi ngenxa yokwanda kokuhlinzekwa kwezidingo. Ukusebenza kwamazwe aseNingizimu ne-Afrika kumile ngenxa yokuntengantenga komnotho eNingizimu Afrika, kanye nomthelela wesomiso eKapa. Ukusebenza kwe-Indian Ocean kuyaqhubeka nokuba namandla kakhulu ngombono omuhle kakhulu.
Ngokombono wezomnotho omkhulu, izifunda zase-Sub-Saharan ziyaqhubeka nokwenza inqubekelaphambili futhi ziya ngokuya zibonakala kuma-radar abatshalizimali. Lokhu, naphezu komzwelo womhlaba wonke othintwe ukukhula kancane, amanani entengo kawoyela aphezulu kanye nokwesaba okuzungeze ukuhoxiswa kweshidi lebhalansi le-US Federal Reserve. U-Tom Mundy, iNhloko Yezocwaningo, i-JLL Sub-Saharan Africa, waveza ukuthi “impahla yekhwalithi enhle, ezindaweni ezizwakalayo ezinemithombo yemali ethembekile, ihlala iheha abatshalizimali. Ukwenza ngcono obala ezwenikazi, ngenkathi kuhamba kancane, kuzosekela udaba lokutshalwa kwezimali kwezindawo ezithengiswayo e-Afrika. "
Umbono wokutshalwa kwezimali kwamahhotela e-Sub-Saharan Africa esikhathini esimaphakathi nesikhathi eside muhle. Amadolobha asathuthuka anokukhula kokuhlinzekwa kwezidingongqangi ayehlala ebeka ingcindezi ekusebenzeni futhi lokhu kuyazwakala manje. U-Nijnens uphetha ngokuthi "le ngcindezi iholela ekuthuthukisweni kwamasu okutshala izimali esifundeni, futhi labo abafunda kahle izimakethe, bakha umkhiqizo ofanele, futhi basungule indlela yabo yomkhakha bazowuthola umvuzo."
