Hilton is committed to growth and opportunity across Africa and has had a continuous presence on the continent since 1959. Hilton currently operates 41 hotels in Africa with 53 in its development pipeline, and expects to double its portfolio of hotels on the continent during the next five years as it continues to grow and enter new markets. In the next five years alone, the company will open hotels in 13 countries where it does not currently operate, including Botswana, Ghana, Swaziland, Uganda, Malawi and Rwanda.
