By Sarah Croucher and Stephanie Wynne-Jones[1] The following report is a brief introduction to reconnaissance survey work carried out in Western Tanzania in July 2006 to investigate caravan routes that ran from the East African coast inland as far as the Congo during the 18th and 19th centuries. These routes were tied to the trading of captive Africans from inland areas to the Indian Ocean coast. When they reached the coast, enslaved individuals were either kept to work on local Arab- run plantations, or traded out into the Indian Ocean.

    REGIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT TABORA MUNICIPAL COUNCIL TABORA REGION MUNICIPAL DIRECTORS’ OFFICE TEL: 026 2604315/6088 P. O. BOX 174 FAX: 026 -2604835 TABORA - TANZANIA INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY IN TABORA, WESTERN TANZANIA HONEY AND BEESWAX PRODUCTION AND PROCESSING APRIL, 2013 Executive Summary The honey found in Tabora is both distinctive and in plentiful supply, presenting an attractive opportunity for honey processing in the region. Investors with modern equipment could access domestic and export markets with a quality product. There is an increasing demand from the health-conscious market for honey based products. It can be marketed as an alternative to artificial sweeteners and is used in a variety of consumer products from baby food to high-end cosmetics and creams. The Tabora Region produces about 13,500 tons of honey per year, which is approximatelly 50% of bulk (unprocessed) honey in Tanzania. There are however very few local processing facilities for honey and all of these are small. Almost all the bulk honey is sold to independent traders who sell it to processing companies in other regions within Tanzania or in foreign countries. Production of honey is steadily increasing due to extension services from the government and NGOs, through training of beekeepers on the use of modern hives and harvesting practices, which have led to an increase in output, quality and efficiency. This presents an opportunity for a honey processing facility in Tabora. During the transfer of bulk honey from small farmers to processing facilities, insufficient care can lead to reduced quality as in order to maintain its quality, honey needs to be kept at a certain temperature and moisture level during storage and transportation.

Due Professor of Economics" Ut4fiti Vol VIII No.2, 1986, Journal University of Illinois of the FacUlty of Arts and Social Sciences Urbana - Champaign University of Oar es Sal~ , Rail tr~sport in Africa began in the colonial days. The lines were built partly for milItary reasons and partly to allow exploitation of mineral deposits, export of farm products, and import of manufactured goods. Built inland from the coast, they were not designed for inter-country trade nor were they ideal' 'for internal economic development. They were built cheaply, and to a narrow gauge of 1.067 meters (3 Y2feet) in the British colonies (but not in all) and I meter in most others. After independence one major line (Tazara) was built, some ,lines were extended, and some connecting links built. On the whole, however, despite some improvements, hi manyrespectsmost systems have de- teriorated in recent decades.
