Gop’Bottles Carves a Niche in Botswana’s Plastic Packaging Industry

Gop’Bottles Carves a Niche in Botswana’s Plastic Packaging Industry. Gop’Bottles, a local plastic bottle manufacturing business founded by entrepreneur Mandy Gopolang Otukile, is making strides in Botswana’s packaging sector. Operated under the Noble Ways brand, the company specializes in producing high-quality PET plastic bottles and is steadily building a reputation for reliability and customer-focused service.

Located in Molepolole under the Local Enterprise Authority (LEA) Incubation, Gop’Bottles manufactures bottles ranging from 50ml to 2L, with current focus on 500ml and 1.5L sizes. Since its founding in 2019 with support from the Ministry of Youth and Gender Affairs through the Youth Development Fund (YDF), the company has shown consistent growth and resilience in a competitive market.

Founder Mandy Otukile holds a BA (Hons) in Entrepreneurship and Business Leadership from Sheffield Hallam University, acquired through Botswana Accountancy College. She also wears many hats as a speaker, gospel artist, and advocate for youth enterprise development.

The company’s product, made from PET material, aligns with sustainability practices valued in the food and beverage industry. PET is widely recognized for its durability, safety, and recyclability—making it a preferred choice for manufacturers and event organisers alike.

Gop’Bottles supplies bottled packaging for a variety of events including weddings, funerals, seminars, and sports gatherings. Their 500ml bottles are priced at P2.00 per unit, sold exclusively in batches of 100 for P200.
