Who we are

The Whitaker Group (TWG), founded in 2003, is a leading corporate strategy, transaction advisory and project development firm specializing in business in Africa.  The partner of choice for Fortune 500 companies, we have successfully pioneered multi-sector investment projects across the Continent. TWG prides itself in delivering significant commercial dividends for its clients while positioning them to be forces for good in the countries where they operate.


In 2017, TWG joined the ranks of direct investors in Africa.  Confident in the region’s creative economy, TWG acquired a significant shareholding and management control while re-engineering a faith-based Pan-African TV, entertainment and multimedia company, Dominion Television. Dominion Television is now available 24/7 in 48 African countries on DsTV, Africa's largest satellite platform.

TWG was established to tap into the enormous business potential of a Continent poised to grow in every direction – economically, demographically and politically.  That vision was prescient.  Today, Africa boasts of the world’s largest Free Trade Area; the fastest consumer market growth ($2.5 trillion in household consumption projected by 2030); and the world’s youngest population.

TWG is led by Rosa Whitaker, the first ever Assistant U.S. Trade Representative for Africa under the administrations of Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Former career diplomat, trade negotiator, US policy and thought leader, Ms. Whitaker is known across for her progressive record of achievement. TWG has demonstrated success in transforming even the most ambitious business objectives into tangible results in Africa. TWG record includes, inter-alia, impactful investments in agriculture, infrastructure, technology and fast-moving consumer goods.

TWG is committed to sustainable business practices that deliver bottom-line results. The TWG team is certified in the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and strictly adheres to it.
