Hashipala, Haulondjamba and Nambili qualify for Kapana Finals

 

16 June 2024 The first preliminary round of the 2024 Nedbank Kapana Cook Off competition took place in Ongwediva last Saturday, and saw Hileni Hashipala, Johannes Haulondjamba, and Petrus Namibili, qualify for the competition final, which is slated for 24 August at the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair. 

On the day of the competition, a total of 55 contestants took part in the competition, where their kapana cooking skills were put to the test. Professional chefs from the Namibian Chefs Association were tasked to judge the contestants food preparation skills based on taste, hygiene, and presentation. Hashipala, Haulondjamba and Nambili’s dishes emerged victorious on the day, as they met the judging criteria. The trio will be joined by nine other finalists from the coastal, central, and southern preliminary rounds, who will then battle it out at the final for the grand prize in the competition.

 

Speaking at the prizegiving  ceremony, Haulondjamba, who took part in the competition for four years said: ‘I joined the Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off yet again because I live by never giving up on what I want to achieve. I will never know when its finally my turn to win the grand prize, if I don’t enter with hopes of winning’.

Haulondjamba also said that if he wins the grand prize in the competition, he will start his food business, and advise aspiring cooks to take on the competition because such a prize can change one’s life.

First time finalist, Nambili said that he is excited for this opportunity and will do his outmost best to ensure he wins in the final. He advised interested cooks to take on the challenge and have fun in the process.

Hashipala, who is also a sophomore competition entrant said: ‘It’s quite an amazing feeling to qualify for the Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off competition final. This is my third time participating in the competition, and I am excited to finally make it to the final. I advise people to take part in this competition as it’s a platform created for cooks to showcase their skills.’

Delivering remarks at competition, Nedbank Namibia Oshana Mall Branch Manager, Loini Jonas said: ‘This year, the Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off Competition is in its 10th year. This is a huge milestone as its geared to develop SME’s in the informal trading sector by giving them a platform to upskill and create sustainable employment for themselves. The competition started off as a small local event when Nedbank opened it’s branch in Ongwediva in 2014, and now 10 years later, it’s one of the biggest drivers of SME development.’

The grand prize winner in the competition walks away with a fully furnished mobile kitchen worth N$ 130 000, N$10 000 cash prize in a Nedbank Account, and a N$5 000 Bakpro voucher. 

The next competition preliminary rounds will take place on 6 July in Walvis Bay, 19 - 20 July in Windhoek, 3 August in Oranjemund, and the final on 24 August in Ongwediva at the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair.

The Nedbank Kapana Cook-Off competition supporting sponsors include, Bakpro, Omulunga Radio, Oranjemund Diamond Festival, AGRA, and the Namibian Chefs Association. 

Entries in the preliminary rounds are still open at entry forms can we collected at any Nedbank Namibia Branch nationwide or downloaded on Nedbank.com.na.
