The Volume of cargo handled at Tanzania’s major sea and lake ports increased by 19 percent to 5.5 million tonnes from the volume handled in the quarter ending September 2021 according to the Bank of Tanzania (BoT) Consolidated Zonal Performance Report for the quarter ending September 2022

According to the report, all ports registered an increase in volume except Kigoma and Lindi ports.

The increase in volume of cargo handled at Mtwara port was mainly on account of rise in exports of coal and cement, as well as increase in importation of petroleum products.

As for Dar es Salaam and Tanga ports, the increase in volumeof cargo was largely associated with ongoing improvement of ports’ infrastructure, while in Mwanza port it was due to opening up of trade activities with neighbouring countries after COVID19, particularly Uganda.

Meanwhile airport operations in most of the zones continued to improve mainly due to revamping economic activities and relaxation of travel restrictions.

“The number of international and domestic flights increased to 8,056 and 33,690 from 5,143 and 23,792, respectively, in the quarter ending September 2021,” the report said.

Likewise, volume of cargo handled increased to 9,270.2 tonnes from 8,162.7 tonnes recorded during the corresponding period last year.
