At OMNIFREIGHT BVBA we specialize in the transport of goods to and from the African continent. With a strong commitment to customer proximity, reliability, and innovative shipping solutions, we had the honor of representing OMNIFREIGHT during the Belgian Economic Mission to Tanzania and Zanzibar. This prestigious event offered a unique opportunity to strengthen relations with our Tanzanian partners and underline our determination to facilitate trade between Europe and East Africa.
Tanzania: A promising trading partner despite challenges
Tanzania is one of the fastest growing economies in East Africa, offering immense opportunities for trade and investment. However, transporting goods between Europe and Tanzania presents several major challenges :
- Disruptions to global supply chains : Container rates have increased significantly, making transportation more complex and expensive.
- Geopolitical tensions : The diversion of shipping routes via the Cape of Good Hope, due to instability around the Suez Canal, is extending delivery times by up to 25 days.
- Port congestion : Although the port of Dar es Salaam is being modernized, its limited capacity and equipment delays still pose obstacles.
- Currency fluctuations : The weakening of the Tanzanian shilling has increased import costs for local businesses, complicating trade.
Despite these challenges, the opportunities offered by Tanzania far outweigh the difficulties. Thanks to its strategic position, the resilience of its economic actors and the hospitality of its people, this country remains a key trading partner for Europe.
