History

1999–2004

The first ever Miss Universe Botswana pageant was held at the Grand Palm Hotel Casino Resort in the capital of Gaborone on the March 19, 1999.[1] In 1999 Mpule Kwelagobe became the 3rd woman from Africa who was crowned Miss Universe pageant. Between 2002 and 2003 the country did not participate in Miss Universe but in 2004 the country sent a winning title of Miss Universe Botswana to Ecuador, Miss Universe 2004.

2010–2013

In 2010, Mos Syde Worldwide Entertainment Group; an international entertainment and fashion company domiciled in Gaborone, Botswana's business capital, acquired the rights for the Miss Universe Botswana pageant after Botswana had been absent from Miss Universe for six years. The aim was to revive the pageant in Botswana, bring it back for good, and help drive the global Women empowerment agenda. Safie Sekgwa is the National Director of Miss Universe Botswana.

2019

After rumors that Mpule Kwelagobe took over the Miss Universe Botswana franchise in 2019, Kwelagobe denied the allegations. "This is not true. I do not know who has been spreading these fake reports, but I am not the franchise holder of Miss Universe and I do not have any interest whatsoever in doing so,".[2]

2024

Mos Syde Worldwide Entertainment Group retook the Miss Universe license for Botswana. Safie Sekgwa returned to be a national director of Botswana.
