SUJÁN acquires Chiawa Camp & Old Mondoro; expanding portfolio into Africa

Over the next four years, SUJÁN aims to more than double its portfolio.

SUJÁN announced the acquisition of the Chiawa Camp and Old Mondoro from Chiawa Safaris, and its expansion into Africa. The acquisition marks SUJÁN’s first international expansion beyond India and is reportedly an important step towards its aim of building a global portfolio of conservation-led wilderness experiences.

The acquisition establishes SUJÁN’s presence in Zambia’s Lower Zambezi National Park. Over the next four years, SUJÁN aims to more than double its portfolio through selective expansion aligned with its conservation and hospitality values.

Commenting on the acquisition, Jaisal Singh, Founder and Chairman of SUJÁN, said, “Africa has always been a special place for me- not only for its extraordinary wildlife and landscapes, but for the role it has played in demonstrating how thoughtful, and responsible tourism can be a partner in the conservation process. This is far more than a geographic expansion for SUJÁN. It is a natural extension of what we have believed and practised for more than 25 years: that exceptional hospitality must have a greater purpose, protecting the natural world, strengthening local communities and ensuring that wild places remain wild for generations to come.”

Anjali Singh, Co-Founder of SUJÁN and Executive Chairperson of ANAND Group, said, “As we expand beyond India, we remain firmly anchored in the principles of authenticity, stewardship and conservation that have shaped our journey from the beginning. Welcoming Chiawa Camp and Old Mondoro into the SUJÁN family is an important milestone, bringing together two family-founded organisations united by a common purpose. We look forward to building upon Chiawa’s remarkable legacy and demonstrating how thoughtful hospitality can make an enduring contribution to the protection of ecosystems, the empowerment of local communities and the preservation of wilderness.”
