Since Unipalm's establishment, the company's major achievement remains the fact that over 400 direct shareholders and over 60 000 beneficiaries have been attracted as committed shareholders to the business model of the company. In 2001, to raise funds for investments, the directors embarked on a national roadshow and Unipalm shares were sold for 50 cents each, these initial investors have realised a return on the investment of over 1000 percent- a true empowerment achievement.
