One of the country’s most successful entrepreneurs is Divine Ndhlukula, President of Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce. She runs the security firm Securico. She told World Service Business Editor Martin Webber how she paid workers in basic goods, including cooking oil and sugar, when the country’s currency plunged in value a decade ago. She also spoke about her hopes for the future after Robert Mugabe’s resignation. (Picture credit: Divine Ndhlukula)
