This company has around 40 million shares in the market. This is by far one of the least in the market that only a slight interest from investors is going to lead to a big rise in the share value.
It is reorganising its Southern Africa business and revenues should pick up on this investment.
If it returns to full profitability then will rise like the agricultural stocks. Now is the moment to get in.
What do you think?

Be hard to convince pipo about Olympia...seems more like a family business...was told sometime ago phone calls to reception go directly to MD.

@scubidu - Did u know that Warren Buffett runs his investment empire from a 2 story building in Omaha?

P.S. Even after making huge donations, WB's net worth is larger than Kenya's GDP? And unlike Kenyan politicians or 'tycoons' not stolen...

Olympia not Olimpia... I recall the CEO said they expect profit of 40mn or so.

Olympia has a weird year end (28 Feb) so the results should be out soon.

Its the best way with this share (forget I mean).
My impression after following for 5 yrs while waiting to put it on my "buy" list is that Wamae Jnr while having some good entreprenuerial ideas has absolutely zero strategic or business knowhow.

Is this the same Wamae who just bought off sacafina (or is it sofapaka he he ) interest in Eaagads.
In the last three weeks the stock is up by 175% and counting.

The company's strength seems to come from botswana...no idea what happens in that market...when he mentioned 40 mn profit maybe he counted on SA World Cup. Could this Wamae guy be the next WB? Indeed they do have a strange year end...maybe some sort of thing for investment firms...centum, olympia???

B.Timer, how are Waguthu Holdings and Manhattan Coffee Holdings related to Olympia or Wamae? Fairly sure, Wamae would have been shouting to all sundry if he had managed such a coup.
WB my *** more like WP (winnie the pooh).

Am with Waithaka on this one... if you love disappointment or if you like to test the dire limits of your patience, then it is a good stock! Talking of OCHL management,am just wondering, is there one company in the history of business that does well progressively without periodic change of management?
