History
[edit]Global BP Solutions

The company launched and opened its first outsourcing campus at Celestial Park in Harare, Zimbabwe in late August 2017.[5]

[edit]ZimWorX moved its outsourcing campus to the Joina City building in Harare, Zimbabwe in December 2017. Initially using only the 8th floor of the building, the company now occupies the 7th, 8th, 9th, 11th, 13th and 14th floors of the building.
SupportDDS

Costa Rica
[edit]In March 2023, the company expanded and opened an outsourcing campus in Liberia, Costa Rica for businesses that need Spanish-speaking team members.[9][10]
Philanthropy
[edit]The 51
[edit]The 51 is a commitment from ZimWorX to donate 51% of all the company's profits to ministries around the world[11][12]
The Bunny Estate
[edit]The Bunny Estate is an initiative under the 51 that is in partnership with WestProp Holdings,[13] (one of Ken Sharpe's other companies) and was implemented at Gwebi College of Agriculture.[14] The project's goal is to help train local farmers by giving them practical experience raising rabbits. As is the central pledge with the 51, 51% of the proceeds of the rabbit farm will go to the community.[15]
