Maritime Trade on Lake Tanganyika Trade Opportunities for Zambia
Maritime Trade on Lake Tanganyika Trade Opportunities for Zambia Commissioned by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency Maritime Trade on Lake Tanganyika Trade Opportunities for Zambia Maritime Trade on Lake Tanganyika Trade Opportunities for Zambia Rotterdam, July 2019 Table of contents Preface 3 Abbreviations and Acronyms 4 1 Introduction 5 2 Transport and Logistics 10 3 International and Regional Trade 19 4 Trade Opportunities 29 5 Recommendations and Action Plan 41 References 48 Annex A Trade Statistics 50 Annex B Trade Potential 52 Annex C Maps 53 Maritime Trade on Lake Tanganyika 2 Preface This market study was prepared by Ecorys for the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO). The study provides information on trade opportunities between the countries on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, with a particular focus on Zambia and the port in Mpulungu. As such this study fills a gap, as previous studies were mostly focused on the infrastructure and logistics aspects of maritime trade on Lake Tanganyika. *** The study was prepared by Michael Fuenfzig (team leader & trade expert), Mutale Mangamu (national expert), Marten van den Bossche (maritime transport expert). We also thank Niza Juma from Ecorys Zambia (PMTC) for her support. This study is based on desk research, the analysis of trade statistics, and site visits and interviews with stakeholders around Lake Tanganyika. In Zambia Lusaka, Kasama, Mbala and Mpulungu were visited, in Tanzania, Kigoma and Dar es Salaam, and in Burundi, Bujumbura. The study team highly appreciates all the efforts made by the RVO, the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other stakeholders. Without their cooperation and valuable contributions this report would not have been possible. -

Partners Funders How to cite this report: Development Corridors Partnership (2019). Development Corridors in Tanzania - A scoping study. Compiled by P.K.T. Munishi, J.J. Kashaigili, N. Chilagane, P. Lyimo, R.E. Pallangyo and L. Kolukwi. Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro, Tanzania. E-published by UNEP-WCMC, Cambridge, UK. Executive summary This report presents the findings of the scoping study conducted to analyse the status and challenges of development corridors in Tanzania. The overall objective of this scoping study is to provide a holistic view of the concept of development corridors and how these are implemented in Tanzania. The scoping study is not intended to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of development corridors in Tanzania, but rather to identify capacity and research gaps on which the Development Corridors Partnership could focus to assist sustainable implementation of development corridors in Tanzania. Moreover, the scoping study provides an initial assessment of the status, actors involved and key challenges in the different identified development corridors. The study further identifies and describes other relevant policy areas and development strategies and plans, institutions and organisations closely linked to the implementation of development corridors in Tanzania. A literature review, stakeholder analysis and a critical review of relevant policies and legislation were undertaken to identify actors, policy and legislative frameworks relevant to development corridors in Tanzania. -
