The Ruma National Park Eco-Lodges Expansion Project aims to address the rising demand for sustainable hospitality by increasing accommodation capacity from 6 to 30 beds. With over 5,500 annual tourists in 2022, the project focuses on green building and renewable energy while generating 300 direct and indirect jobs. The expansion enhances Ruma National Park’s appeal as a sustainable tourism destination, benefiting both visitors and the local economy. Requiring an investment of USD 2.8 million (equity or debt), the project will fund construction, staffing, and initial operations. Revenue projections indicate USD 1 million in the first year, with a 5% annual growth rate and an expected 35% occupancy rate. The market includes local and international tourists, with visitors willing to pay up to USD 150 per night, leading to a 6-year payback period. Beyond financial returns, the project has strong social and environmental impacts, including employment for 300 locals, partnerships with local businesses, and adoption of renewable energy. Sustainability initiatives such as water conservation, waste management, and eco-friendly transportation further enhance its contribution to environmental conservation.
