About Us :
The City of Ndola has a very rich history having derived its name from an almost insignificant stream called “Kandola” that runs adjacent to the International airport and forms a tributary of the Kafubu river.
It was founded on 18th July, 1904 on the present day Ndola Golf Club by John Edward Stephenson.
Ndola was originally a centre of African and Arab trade which was carried out in the shade of the fig tree, located in the city centre near the present railway goods station. This location would later become the court of Chitimukulu prior to the Colonial Era
