Attended by representatives from Ugu District Municipality, government and private sector stakeholders, the launch included the unveiling of the newly created SCTIE logo, with development plans for the region outlined.
The SCTIE is an amalgamation of Ugu South Coast Tourism (USCT) and Ugu South Coast Development Agency (USCDA). The two entities have been merged in order to optimise service delivery, enhance efficiencies and cut costs. As the official economic development arm, this new entity is mandated to drive the economy of the region through positioning it as a tourism and investment destination.
