For Zambians in the diaspora looking to invest back home, Dot Com Zambia’s Initial Public Offering (IPO) offers a rare chance to own part of a fast-growing local tech company without needing to return physically or manage a business on the ground.
Through this listing, diasporans can build long-term wealth, earn dividends, and participate in Zambia’s economic growth from anywhere in the world.
Dot Com Zambia PLC—one of the country’s leaders in digital tolling, logistics technology, and payment infrastructure—has officially opened its IPO, marking a major milestone for Zambia’s innovation ecosystem.
This is a Zambian-born company raising capital from Zambians, on a Zambian exchange, and inviting citizens globally to become co-owners.
Why This IPO Matters
An IPO allows the public to buy shares and become part-owners of a company. For Zambia, this listing is important because it expands public investment opportunities, strengthens the financial market, and shows that local companies can meet world-class standards of transparency and governance.
Dot Com Zambia serves more than 300 corporate clients and provides essential services such as electronic tolling, fleet management, digital payments, and logistics data systems. It is one of the silent engines behind the country’s transport and payment networks.
A Proven, Profitable Zambian Tech Firm
From humble beginnings nearly two decades ago, Dot Com Zambia has grown into a multi-million-kwacha enterprise. It is profitable, has paid over K5 million in dividends in 2025, and has seen its revenue rise from K38 million to over K600 million. This trajectory makes the company one of Zambia’s most promising technology success stories.
