Upington is a holiday destination with all the amenities required for the many tourists who stay or travel through it, as well as an agricultural hub for one of the most intensive sultana grape farming areas in the country. The economy of Upington relies heavily on agriculture, tourism and the services industry and many large South African companies dealing with wine, table grapes, dried fruit and livestock farming have their head offices in the town. The town was named after Sir Thomas Upington, Attorney-General of the Cape. It originated as a mission station established by the Revd Christiaan Schröder in 1873. The original mission station now houses the town museum, known as the Kalahari Orange Museum. As of 2007 the town had an estimated population of 100,920 and enjoys a average annual rainfall of less than 200 mm Conference Venues South Africa | Search for Venues with Conference Facilities in South Africa | Browse through available Conference Venues in South Africa | Conferences Cape Town | Conference Venues in Western Cape | Conference Venues in Eastern Cape | Conference Venues in Northern Cape | Conference Venues in Kwazulu-Natal | Conference Venues in Free State | Conference Venues in Gauteng | Conference Venues in Limpopo Province | Conference Venues in North West Province | Conference Venues in Mpumalanga | South Africa Information | Contact Conference Venues | Conference Venues South Africa Sitemap
