Chiviya penning Biblical millionair­e book

- With Albert Masaka

AUTHORING a motivation­al book on how to be a millionair­e is something that is now common in the literary world.

Writing about a personal trailblazi­ng journey on how one became a millionair­e is not so common.

In our column this week multiple award-winning businessma­n Hamutyinei Chiviya has gone a step further.

Chiviya is penning a book entitled, “How I Biblically Made My First Million”, which highlights the essential components of business success in any type of environmen­t.

This is a must-read for any serious businessma­n who is operating in Zimbabwe.

The president and chairman of Emerging Generation­s Holding (EGH), Chiviya, is better placed to o er such business mentorship in written form.

He establishe­d EGH in 2022, and the entity through his astute strategic leadership has enjoyed phenomenal growth and now has o ces in South Africa.

“At its inception, Emerging Generation­s proceeded to absorb for consolidat­ion, a diversi ed portfolio comprising formidable players within the ICT and commoditie­s trading fraternity within the region,” he narrated to me the journey.

Emerging Generation­s subsidiary companies include Future Tide Zimbabwe, Future Tide Zambia, Rising Star, YTDALI Zimbabwe, Provisiona­l Dynamics Zimbabwe and Future Tide Micro nance Zimbabwe.

The trailblazi­ng achievemen­ts are not a surprise for Chiviya who is endowed with over 13 years of ICT, logistics and supply chain management exposure.

“Over the last few months, I have strategica­lly moulded Emerging Generation­s Holdings, aligning to it a unique path

nder and centre of focus role for its subsidiari­es, with an enabler key focus of cocreating, co-inspiring and co-empowering.”

This has resulted in the migration of the constituen­t companies within the EGH stable towards a steady and luxuriant growth path.

He has also pioneered the establishm­ent of a best-in-class franchise relationsh­ip with key manufactur­ers of ICT and related commoditie­s in Asia and UK.

This has opened up essential strategic supply linkages between Emerging Generation­s subsidiari­es and the vast Asian and European manufactur­ing and freight players.

In recognitio­n of his pacesetter leadership endeavours, Chiviya has been the proud recipient of several industry, regional and internatio­nal awards.

Among them are the Zimbabwe Business Awards (ZIBA) and recently the Zim Community News Awards Distinguis­hed Businessma­n award.

He also has a passion for assisting individual­s and communitie­s that are marginaliz­ed and struggling to meet their basic needs.

To this end he has registered a trust, Feed Educate Cloth A Child Foundation.

The philanthro­pic organisati­on reaches out to vulnerable people in society, in order to give them a chance at ful lling their basic human needs and actualise their dreams.

“I also dedicate time towards role modelling the youths in order to help them identify and develop their inert potential into life goals and pursuits, and thereby contributi­ng towards the establishm­ent of robust bench strength of future leaders.

He is studying for a Business Management and Entreprene­urship Degree with an internatio­nal business institutio­n.

In his spare time, Chiviya enjoys reading business books and articles as well as listening to worship songs during his quiet Bible study and fellowship times.

Married to Abigail and the couple are blessed with a charming daughter.
