Comments / Details |
|---|---|---|
|
Primary Road Transport |
From October to March |
The main road system is fairly robust and only susceptible to extreme floods in the Zambezi and Luangwa valleys. Rural areas of western and Northwestern part of the country are often cut-off due to heavy rains that washes away bridges and feeder roads. Most major roads are under maintenance such as the T2 from the Lusaka to Nakonde is in bad shape due heavy duty vehicles from and to Tanzania. |
|
Secondary Road Transport |
From October to March |
Secondary roads through valley bottoms and associated bridges are at risk. |
|
Rail Transport |
From October to March |
Rail bridges are at risk due to floods. |

The general elevation of the land gives Zambia a more pleasant climate than that experienced in most tropical countries. Three seasons can be identified:
- Cool and dry from May to August (frost can occur on cloudless nights in valleys).
- Hot and dry from September to November (night frosts may occur in places sheltered from the wind). The countryside dries up gradually with risk of grass fires, fanned by high winds.
- Warm and wet from December to April; frequent heavy showers and thunderstorms occur, followed by spells of bright sunshine. Rivers and streams fill up almost overnight with risks of flash floods.
Only in the Zambezi and Luangwa valleys there is excessive heat, particularly in October and, in the wet season, a high humidity.

In rural areas where temporary storage facilities are in use, the rain has proved to affect accessibility to the storage and the ability to handle goods. Few large hard standing storage facilities are available in the rural areas.
Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response
Government
The Government of Zambia is the coordinator of disaster response in the country overall through the Disaster Management and Mitigation Unit (DMMU) headed by the Vice President’s Office. The last update of the National Disaster Management Policy was instituted in 2014. The DMMU exercises its responsibilities through the National Disaster Management Committee (NDMC) comprised of Ministers. The National Disaster Management Technical Committee (NDMTC) is the point where the UN Resident Coordinator (UNRC) participates to inform the UN response as part of the coordinated National response.
For more information on government contact details, please see the following link: 4.1 Zambia Government Contact List.
Humanitarian Community
The UN Resident Coordinator (UNRC) is responsible for coordinating the UN emergency response in support of the Government of Zambia. Under the guidance of the UNRC, the UN Country Team (UNCT) is responsible for the effective and efficient implementation of inter-agency disaster management activities in Zambia. Zambian Red Cross Society (ZRCS) is a member of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
UN agencies, ZRCS and a network of NGO implementing partners will respond to an emergency in collaboration with and through the Government of Zambia emergency response structure. In accordance with UN Humanitarian Reform and the cluster directions of the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC), Lead Agencies will ensure a coordinated action among partners in their respective sectors.
The refugees crossing from DRC is the most pressing potential humanitarian emergency issue in Zambia in September 2017.
Key agencies: UNDP, FAO, IFAD, ILO, IOM, UNAIDS, UNFPA, UNHCR, UNICEF, WFP, & WHO.

1.2 Zambia Regulatory Departments & Quality Control
Southern African Development Community (SADC)
The Southern African Development Coordinating Conference (SADCC), established on 1 April 1980, was the precursor of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The SADCC was transformed into the SADC on 17 August 1992 in Windhoek, Namibia where the SADC Treaty was adopted, redefining the basis of cooperation among Member States from a loose association into a legally binding arrangement. The main objectives of SADC are to achieve development, peace and security, and economic growth, to alleviate poverty, enhance the standard and quality of life of the peoples of Southern Africa, and support the socially disadvantaged through regional integration, built on democratic principles and equitable and sustainable development.
Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA)
The role of the Zambia Revenue Authority Governing Board is derived from the Zambia Revenue Authority Act 321, Section 11 (1), (2) and (3). According to the Act, the responsibilities of the Governing Board are:
- To oversee the organization and administration of the Authority and management of its resources, services, property, and personnel and
- To develop the corporate strategic plan and such other administrative policies as are necessary for the smooth running of the Authority.
The Commissioner General, who is appointed by the Republican President, is assisted by Senior Management Members (SMM). The Commissioner General is responsible for the day to day running of the Authority’s business under the direction of the Governing Board.
The Authority has two operating divisions which are Customs Services Division and Domestic Taxes Division. The organizational structure is as per the following diagram:
Website: http://www.zra.org.zm/
The environment in which ZRA operates, both domestically and internationally has changed and keeps changing. While economic development and macroeconomic stability is stronger, tax collections which peaked in terms of GDP several years ago have been declining. Equally, international trade has grown, but with a lower contribution to revenues due to expanding free trade agreements. As such, a review and possible overhaul of tax policies are imminent.
Food and Drugs Control Laboratory (FDCL)
The FDCL is a unit within the Ministry of Health in the directorate of Disease Surveillance Control Research. The mandate of FDCL is to protect the public against hazards and fraud in the sale and use of foods, drugs, water and to ensure that the foods, drugs and water consumed in Zambia conform to the Food and Drugs regulations of 2001 and World Health Organisation (WHO) standards. Quality Assurance: The Laboratory has implemented ISO 17025:2005 quality management system as its operating tool and participates in SADC (regional) Laboratory proficiency tests to ensure that results produced by the laboratory meet both national and international requirements. All the equipment used in the analysis of the samples are calibrated/serviced by qualified bodies such as the Zambia Bureau of Standards.
Website: http://www.fdcl.org.zm/
Zambian Medicines Regulatory Authority (ZAMRA)
ZAMRA, formally the Pharmaceutical Regulatory Authority, is the Statutory National Medicines Regulatory Body for Zambia established under an Act of Parliament, the Medicines and Allied Substances Act No. 3 of 2013 of the Laws of Zambia to regulate and control the manufacture, importation, storage distribution, supply, sale and use of medicines and allied substances. The main objective of the Authority is to ensure that all medicines and allied substances being made available to the Zambian people consistently meet the set standards of quality, safety and efficacy.
Website: http://www.zamra.co.zm/
Zambia Compulsory Standards Agency (ZCSA)
The Zambia Compulsory Standards Agency (ZCSA) was established to administer, maintain and ensure compliance to compulsory standards. This is aimed at ensuring public health, safety and protection of the environment are maintained. Through its mandate the ZCSA facilitates growth of trade and the manufacturing industry in Zambia. The Agency started operations on 1st January 2018 and has been conducting activities aimed at fully operationalizing the Agency’s mandate, following the implementation of the National Quality Policy.
The ZCSA supports industrial growth through inspections and approval of products regulated by means of compulsory standards. Inspections are conducted so that products which are sold or imported onto the local market and those which are exported adhere to standards. These inspections are done through the Agency’s Import Quality Monitoring and Domestic Quality Monitoring departments. This, therefore, protects Zambian industry against unfair technical barriers to trade and competition; and this is done in collaboration with other Government agencies.
Website: https://www.zcsa.org.zm/
Zambia Bureau of Standards (ZABS)
Over the years ZABS has carried on its role of developing standards and providing conformity assessment services to industry. With the realignment of the National Quality Infrastructure (NQI) in 2018, to international best practices, ZABS role is now more focused towards supporting industry to implement standards that enhance the quality of products and services for industry growth and competitiveness.

Exemption Regular Regime (Non-Emergency Response)
The Republic of Zambia is not a signatory to any of the conventions for an emergency, to streamline customs processes. Regular processes will apply, though at the time of emergency the governing bodies will make local decisions on waivers. There is a Zambia Revenue Authority Customs Code used on Humanitarian Aid Commodities which exempt such aid from the payment of taxes. This is done with the support of a document called COMESA Certificate of Origin or SADC Certificate of Origin and Non Charge Commercial Invoice.
CE20 is a customs form used for declaration of imports and exports. It must have the following with it:
- Certificate of origin for export into member states that have
ratified particular preferential trade agreements with Zambia.
These certificates can be obtained from the Customs International
and Policy Office in Lusaka and the Assistant Commissioner Customs
Services Office in Ndola. Currently, Zambia issues certificates of
origin for the following trade agreements:
- COMESA
- SADC
- EU
- GSP
- China bilateral trade agreement
- AGOA
- Permits
- quality certificate from veterinary department (meat and livestock)
- phytosanitory certificate from Mt Makulu Research station (seeds, plants and fruits)
- permit for gemstone and scrap metal exports from Ministries of Mines
- and timber verification certificate for timber export.

- Depending on the country of destination, some humanitarian aid commodities are moved in bond and they go into the bonded warehouse in the country of destination where they are finally ex-bonded after being final cleared by the Customs Authority of the destination country.
- Usual humanitarian aid commodity in Zambia is not escorted unless there is a Government ban on such a commodity, then, there is military escort to the border of exit.
2 Zambia Logistics Infrastructure
Significant infrastructure development has taken place from the time of the last assessment. A key highlight is the completion of the multi million dollar (USD 260 million) bridge construction at Kazungula border crossing (Zambia – Botswana) expected to be commissioned by the two countries in 2021. Roads, rail, bridges, and airports are all seeing major projects that will replace or improve present facilities. The introduction of Public Private Partnerships (PPP), has made a large impact at border crossings particularly. Most projects are scheduled for completion in the next 5 years, however, other projects are due to start soon with a 5 to 10 year completion schedule. However, Zambia’s external debt to GDP ratio already exceeds 100%. As part of external debt management, the country has since suspended key infrastructural developments such as C400 (Copperbelt roads), L400 (Lusaka Roads) and the over USD 1 billion Lusaka – Ndola dual carriage way road construction.
The road network represents a hub with Lusaka at its center. The main highways in the South-West from Livingstone, through Lusaka to the north-eastern border with Tanzania; from Chipata at the Malawi border in the south east to Lusaka; and from Lusaka to the Copperbelt in the north to DRC. Trucks represent 70 % of cargo movement and the government has launched a policy to ensure that 30% is moved by rail. More infrastructural development is still needed in the rail sector.
Notable investment has been made in rail transport, lines continue to increase and the existing ones are being repaired. The railway line from Dar es Salaam in Tanzania to Lusaka (TAZARA) is operational. The railway from Chipata through Malawi to Nacala in the east is operational but not used frequently as it seasonally affected by rains
There are plans to complete the railway from Chipata to Serenje in Central province to link with TAZARA line. This would open the transport of goods from the port of Nacala (the only deep water port in south east Africa).Rail transport is linked from South Africa through Zimbabwe to Zambia and from Dar es Salaam in Tanzania and the DRC.
Fuel is readily available in Zambia except in the remotest areas where deliveries are less frequent due to road conditions. A fuel pipeline exists from Tanzania to Zambia. There is one oil refinery in Ndola and a lot of fuel storage facilities throughout the country on the main highway network is available. The TAZAMA Pipeline (Tanzania Zambia Mafuta Pipeline) is 1,710 km long crude oil pipeline from the Single Point Mooring Terminal at the outer anchorage in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania to the TIPER refinery in Dar es Salaam and the Indeni refinery in Ndola, Zambia.
Four international airports operated by ZACL are operational and there is a network of smaller national level airports throughout the country. Only the Kenneth Kaunda International Airport is equipped to handle air cargo. Plans to equip air cargo for Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe and Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula International Airports are underway.
Storage facilities, food mills, and food suppliers are mainly found in the Lusaka area, though the Copperbelt Province also includes many of these industries. Food mills tend to have a retail presence in many of the larger towns and cities. The Food Reserve Agency (FRA) has a network of storage facilities across the country for grains and other commodities. Silos for FRA requires attention and are not operating in some regions.
Zambia has access to all the major ports in South Africa, as well as Beira and Nacala in Mozambique, Dar es Salaam in Tanzania, and Walvis Bay in Namibia, either through road or rail transportation. Plans are underway to link the country with port of Lobito in Angola through construction of Northwest Railway line which is also a PPP arrangement.
2.1 Zambia Port Assessment
There are no sea ports in Zambia. However, there is a lake port on Lake Tanganika at Mpulungu, and an area for pontoons to DRC on Lake Mweru in Nchelenge.
2.1.1 Zambia Mpulungu Harbour
Port Overview
The harbour on Lake Tanganika is located in Mpulungu and is primarily used to move cargoes into DRC and Burundi across the lake. Kelemie DRC is the main point of delivery. The port is managed by Mpulungu Harbour Corporation Limited that is fully owned by the Ministry of Transport and Communications, and incorporated in 2014. The company provides port services only – stevedores for loading and unloading vessels, storage, vessel berths. Challenges are the availability of vessels on the lake and most have Burundian Flags. Approximately 90% of all cargoes are for export. The Government has committed to renovate the harbour within the next few years.

2.2 Zambia Aviation
Overview
There are four international airports and forty-six aerodromes across the country of varying capacity. Govt through the civil aviation authority (CAA) is also repurposing some of the Military airbases for civilian use. The recently repurposed airbase is Mbala which was operated by the Zambia Air Force (ZAF).
The Kenneth Kaunda International Airport is Zambia’s main airport connecting the country with the rest of the world and is the only airport that handles air cargo. This is complimented by three smaller international airports at Ndola, Livingstone and Mfuwe, as well as secondary airfields at Chipata, Kitwe, Kasama, Mongu, Solwezi and Mansa. Zambia has no national airline but is served by a number of airlines that connect to international routes via Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Addis Ababa, Nairobi, London, Amsterdam, Dubai and Dar-Es-Salaam. Though Govt announced its intention to relaunch the former Zambia Airways way back in 2016, plans have not materialized yet despite identifying an equity partner. Proflight Zambia is a privately run airline with proposed regional flights to Johannesburg and Congo DRC and local flights to various destinations within the country. The country recently adapted an “open sky policy” and is currently promoting the establishment of an air cargo hub for the Southern African region in Lusaka.
Government has embarked on a program to improve the infrastructure at all the international airports. This is being done in collaboration with private sector participation. The developments include the runways, terminals and auxiliary facilities in and around the airports such as hotels, shopping malls, conference facilities etc. Scope for private sector participation in development of airports also exists at the identified airfields at Chipata, Kitwe, Kasama, Mongu, Solwezi and Mansa though is scheduled over the next five to ten years.
The International Airports in Zambia are operated by Zambia Airports Corporation Limited (ZACL) in cooperation with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) under the Ministry of Transport and Communications. http://www.zacl.co.zm/. The national level airstrips have also been taken over by ZACL following recent reforms.

2.3 Zambia Road Network
The country shares its borders with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique, and Angola. About one half of the population is concentrated in a few urban zones strung along the major transportation corridors, while rural areas are under-populated.
Zambia has a road network of approximately 67,671 km, of which 40,454 km is core road network and only about 15% is paved. The hub and spoke design of the road network has Lusaka as the hub. Virtually all trunk highways go through Lusaka. Traveling from the north to south or vice versa, is extremely difficult as the road conditions prevent by passing Lusaka to a great extent.
The trading corridors are paved and in good condition.
Main trading corridors
- Chirundu border with Zimbabwe in the south via Lusaka to the Copperbelt Province (Ndola, Kitwe in the center north – T2 to T3). T3 continues to Mwinilunga on the Angolan border in the northwest.
- Chirundu border via Lusaka along the T2 to Tanzania at Tunduma.
- Lusaka via T4 to Chipata on the Malawi border
Secondary corridors
- Livingstone in the south west at the border with Botswana, Namibia and Zimbabwe to Lusaka (T1 to Lusaka - Tourism main industry).
- M1 from Mpika in Muchinga Province (at the intersection of T2 and M1) to the northern border with Tanzania at Mbala.
Extensive investment was made by the World Bank on the rehabilitation of about 105km of a section of trunk road between Lusaka and the Zambia/Zimbabwe border town of Chirundu, as well as the construction of Chiawa and Mufuchani bridges.
The main natural resource is copper and the road network is integral for the export of the copper from the north central Province called the Copperbelt. This road network from Ndola to the south will be undergoing significant investment by the Zambian Government. Copper mining companies move copper from the Copperbelt Province by road to Ports throughout the Southern Africa region year round using all of the border crossings in the west, and south.
Secondary roads are mostly gravel or a mix of gravel/sand/dirt and subject to damage from the rainy season floods and usage. These roads while essential for internal distribution of goods for the country are reasonably maintained. However, the Tertiary roads require off-road capability especially in the rainy season and can be impassable, maintenance is not as regular.
Main challenges are in the rural areas and especially along the border areas. In the south west the roads tend to be primarily sand/gravel mix and are very difficult to navigate even in the dry season. Along the eastern border with Malawi the roads are hilly to valley bottom and subject to washout and flooding in the rainy season with only 4x4 car access for the most part.

Road Security
There are no major issues with security on the roads. In border areas with DRC security issues tends to be more visibly present.
Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits
The Zambian Load Limits policy dates from 2007. The Road Development Agency (RDA) through the Axle Load Control Unit operates the static and portable weighbridges. It employs a Vehicle Overload Management Information System where all electronic weighbridges are linked to a database at the RDA Headquarters enabling real time monitoring and access to all weighbridges remotely. CCTV cameras are at all weighbridges as well as speed cameras in highway roads
The Unit operates eight fixed weighbridges spread around the critical points on the road network and more expected to be commissioned in some provinces. Six of the eight weighbridges, namely Kapiri Mposhi, Kazungula, Livingstone, Solwezi, Kafue and Mpika weighbridges are electronic, while the rest namely Kafuluafuta and Mwami are mechanical. In addition the unit has three Mobile Inspectorate teams which carry out highway spot checks using portable weighbridges. Two Inspectorate teams are based in Lusaka and one is in the Copperbelt Province.

2.3.7 Zambia Border Crossing of Victoria Falls
Overview
This border post does not see a lot of activity. Very little parking space is available for trucks except along the roadside due to proximity to Victoria Falls tourist area. An average of 50 trucks per day cross both ways with about a 1-2 hour wait when all documentation is correct. The Zambian Govt has issued a statutory instrument (SI) to restrict the axle load passing through the Victoria falls bridge to less than 18 tons. The move has been necessitated by the reduced life span of the Victoria Falls Bridge which could be due for rehabilitation any time soon. Heavier traffic will be rerouted to Kazungula border post once the bridge at Kazungula has been commissioned.
Roads are made of tarmac and access is good. The dry port is in Livingstone where many trucks conduct all the clearing process and have ample parking space prior to crossing at the Victoria Falls Border Post. This same dry port provides service for trucks crossing at Kazungula. The waiting time is approximately a full day if all documentation is complete and correct, including time spent at the Victoria Falls Border Post.

2.3.13 Zambia Border Crossing of Nakonde/Tunduma (One Stop)
Overview
This border post is at the northern end of theT2 highway. It is a combined post with Tanzania Customs to make it a one stop facility for all cargo and persons crossing the border. The crossing is highly congested due to the lack of parking and staging areas for cargo trucks on the Zambian side. On average 350 trucks cross both ways every day. Maximum capacity is 500 trucks per day. Road access is tarmac from Lusaka where the condition of the tarmac is broken and deteriorating from Mpika onwards towards the border. A fair number of trucks are using the Nakonde – Mbala Road which is fairly ok, through Kasama and re-join the T2 at Mpika.
Waiting time is one day and dependent upon documentation completeness, pre-clearance and alerts.

2.3.17 Zambia Border Crossing of Chirundu
Overview
This border post is busy with a steady volume of traffic, it operates as a “one stop border post”. It is a main crossing for the country with Zimbabwe. The road that guarantees access is made of good tarmac from Lusaka on the T2 highway. Trucks are challenged on this route as they cross the Zambezi escarpment which is a steep grade and the cause of many accidents despite improvements to the highway. The same situation applies on the Zimbabwe side where the Zambezi escarpment is extended. Currently, this is Zambia’s second busiest border crossing point after Kasumbalesa border point (Zambia/DRC). However, there is high possibility of reduction in traffic once the Kazungula bridge is commissioned as most north and south bound truckers would prefer to use Kazungula border crossing due to its proximity to the Republic of South Africa where most cargo is coming from.
Waiting time is 24 to 48 hours depending on documentation completeness. Pre-clearance and registration as well as forwarders with e-payment capability are essential to facilitating cargo movement.

Approximately 3-5 trucks per day cross both ways with most in transit from Zambia to DRC Border Post. Maximum capacity is about 5 trucks per day. About a 1-2 hour wait when all documentation is correct. Road access very bad asphalt from Ndola.
Customs Clearance
Minimum delays occur because of self-assessment pre-clearing routine on documentation done in advance. Documentation requirements for food (cereals):
- Waybill
- Export permit (dependent on commodity)
- Certificate of Origin (COMESA/SADC)
- Fumigation certificate
- Export schedule (in case of Maize)
- Invoice
- Phytosanitary certificate
Electronic pre-clearance possible and recommended through forwarding agent. Bond is held by the agent for fees. ZRA is the Regulatory Authority. Inspection is required for import and export by Ministry of Agriculture and ZRA. Fee of USD 100 per foreign registered truck and US$2.20 equivalent for Zambian trucks. All trucks are subject to inspection upon entering or leaving the country.
For more information on customs in Zambia, please see the following link: 1.3 Customs Information.
Other Relevant Information
Cargo transits DRC with correct documentation fairly smoothly. Movement of people and private vehicles from DRC to Zambia do not have the same experience. Food is inspected by the Ministry of Agriculture.

2.5 Zambia Waterways Assessment
Zambia being a landlocked country is endowed with inland water bodies such as rivers and lakes. Though this sector is underdeveloped, the country has potential for development of an effective water transport system. The Mpulungu Harbor which is Zambia’s only international port is a potential gateway to the great lakes region.
There are some maritime activities on Lake Mweru located in the Luapula Province. Smaller vessels operated mainly by locals shunts between Nchelenge town on the Zambian side and Kilwa on the DRC side. In the recent past, mining companies such as Anvil have had large scale mining operations in the DRC and to move their cargo they had often used Lake Mweru. Other maritime bodies with potential for water transport include; Lake Mweru, Lake Kariba, River Zambezi and the Kafue River.
2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment
The Zambia National Railways are very important to the economy of the country as it is a bulk carrier with less effect on the environment than many other transport modes. The Government intends to expand its railway network in the country to develop the surface transport sector. Through the Ministry of Transport, a new statutory instrument (SI) was passed, which requires industries to move 30% of their carriage by rail. This is in a bid to decongest the road sector and possibly reduce the damage done by heavy duty trucks on Zambian roads.
The development of rail routes linking important exit points is not only vital for facilitating smooth access to the outside but also for the overall boosting of trade in the sub-region and making Zambia a competitive country for business. Traditionally, the Zambian railways have generally operated well below their original design capacity, yet significant investment is underway to increase their volumes by investing in track conditions, increase locomotive and wagon availability and increase operating capital. The rail network remains the dominant mode of transportation for goods on the local and international routes but is under-utilized.
The main railway lines are the Zambia Railways, owned by Government and the TAZARA line, linking Zambia with Tanzania, and jointly owned by the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. The opening of the Chipata-Mchinji railway link provides connectivity into the Malawi and Mozambique railway network and further connects Zambia to the port of Nacala.
Rail lines in Zambia:
| Railway Line | Length (km) |
|---|---|
| Main Line | 890 km |
| Mulobezi | 167 km |
| Chipata / Mchinji | 27 km |
| TAZARA | 1860 km |
The Government projects in the Railway sector include:
- Installation of an advanced signalling and communications system
- Rehabilitation of the Mulobezi Railway Line (periodical maintenance)
Planned developments that are seeking funding are:
- Western Railway
- North Western Railway
- Nseluka-Mpulungu Railway
- Livingstone Katima Mulilo Railway
- Chipata – TAZARA Railway (approved and funded), to link Serenje town of Central province.
- Kafue – Lions Den Railway.
The main constraints are the tracks and maintenance as the train speeds are far slower than Road Freight Trucks. The main line from Lusaka to the Copperbelt requires periodical maintenance and covers a distance of about 308 Kms excluding the Branch lines from Kitwe to Mufulira, Kitwe to Chililabombwe and Kitwe to Chingola. The Ndola to Luanshya Line has been closed and needs complete reconstruction.

2.6 Zambia Storage Assessment
Overview
Storage in Zambia tends to be built on purpose for the private sector industry, or the government. There is a limited amount of available space especially in the rural areas and often on open spaces (unsecured storage facilities). Most rural areas have some space allotted for FRA activities post-harvest, maize and pulses/groundnuts. Commercially available storage space is generally in larger commercial centres such as Lusaka and Ndola.
For more information on storage company contact details, please see the following link: 4.6 Zambia Storage and Milling Companies Contact List.
Commercial Storage
Most commercial space is purpose built for companies/entities requiring the space.

Public Sector Storage
The Food Reserve Agency (FRA) holds the bulk of storage facilities for the public sector. There is FRA presence in virtually every district in the country. Both silos and warehouse facilities are used extensively. Countrywide FRA holds approximately 2,000,000mt of storage space mostly for maize. Other commodities such as rice and soybeans are stored in the regions where they are most often produced. The FRA holds a strategic maize reserve of 500,000mt per year and rotates that stock with the next year’s harvest.

2.7 Zambia Milling Assessment
Most of the milling companies in Zambia are concentrated in the capital city of Lusaka. Lusaka alone has over 20 large milling companies and in the Copperbelt Province there are approximately 12 large milling companies. The country has a large capacity for milling, however, few companies are prepared to fortify or meet international standards and therefore produce primarily for the Zambian market place. Also important to note that currently there is no legislation regarding the fortification of flour products in Zambia.
Expansion of the milling capacity within Zambia has been ongoing for several years. The government has rolled out hammer-mills in the rural areas using solar power as a renewable energy source. During the visit to various milling plants it was not that prolonged power outages due to load shading have impacted negatively on the productivity of some companies, especially those without capacity to invest in power backups. Furthermore, the Covid-19 pandemic have had an adverse effect on some milling plants.

3 Zambia Services and Supply
There are a significant number of service providers in the country covering a wide range of activities, from fuel provision to technology.
3.1 Zambia Fuel
Fuel Overview
Zambia’s current monthly fuel consumption is estimated to be around 30 million liters and this is combined total of all fuel types. There is one oil refinery in the country in Ndola and a lot of fuel storage facilities throughout the country on the main highway network. The TAZAMA Pipeline (Tanzania Zambia Mafuta Pipeline) is 1,710 km long which moves crude oil from the Single Point Mooring Terminal at the outer anchorage in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania to the TIPER refinery in Dar es Salaam and the Indeni refinery in Ndola, Zambia.
There are strategic fuel depots/reserves located in provincial regional hubs mostly operated by Oil marketing companies (OMCs). To meet the ever-increasing demand for petroleum products in the capacity city Lusaka, Govt through its energy policy of 2019 (NEP19) embarked on the project to construct a new fuel depot facility in Lusaka west with holding capacity of 102,000 m³ to augment the existing capacity.
A new fuel depot facility in Lusaka West is under construction.
Refinery Plant in Ndola at Indeni.
For more information, please see the following links:4.1 Zambia Government Contact List and 4.7 Zambia Fuel Providers Contact List.
Information may also be found at: http://www.mytravelcost.com/petrol-prices/ which is updated monthly.
Fuel Pricing
The Energy Regulation Board sets prices. http://www.erb.org.zm/viewpage.php?page=news
The government policy that governs the Energy Regulation Board requires the price to be set at a level that is a full cost recovery for the government.
|
Fuel Prices per Litre as of: 1 June 2021 |
|
|
Petrol |
17.64 ZMW / 0.79 USD |
|---|---|
|
Diesel |
15.59 ZMW / 0.69 USD |
|
Paraffin |
15.39 ZMW / 0.69 USD |
|
Jet A-1 |
|
Fuel Transportation
Fuel is transported by truck for the most part. There is a pipeline for the country from Tanzania and there is at least one refinery in Ndola. All types of fuel are present in the country, petrol, diesel, JET A-1, etc. The most significant challenges are those concerning the deliveries to the most rural areas in the west and east due to road conditions. Frequently, fuel runs out in remote towns.
Disclaimer: Inclusion of company information in the LCA does not imply any business relationship between the supplier and WFP / Logistics Cluster, and is used solely as a determinant of services, and capacities.
Please note: WFP / Logistics Cluster maintain complete impartiality and are not in a position to endorse, comment on any company's suitability as a reputable service provider.
3.2 Zambia Transporters
Since Zambia is a landlocked country it depends heavily on road transport companies for the haulage of heavy goods and supplies across Zambia and to the import and export business with neighbouring countries. The trucking industry has significantly grown in the last 5 years because of the infrastructure upgrade in the road sector and also triggered by the increase in the production of copper.
A Truckers Association of Zambia (TAZ) oversees policy issues for the industry. The petroleum transporters have their own association (PTAZ) which acts as an advocate and promotes the interest of petroleum truckers in the country. Drivers in the country are unionized in the National Union of Transport Allied Workers (NUTAW). Collective agreements are negotiated by individual companies. The union does not represent drivers for petroleum fuel trucks, they have a separate union.
While government policy upholds the SADC conventions of third country rule, etc, there are several instances of exemptions where temporary road service licenses are provided to Tanzanian companies.

The Zambian casual labor market is highly fragmented with limited or no labour service brokers. Casuals are normally hired on individual basis often without representation from labour unions. Wages for casuals are paid on ‘’piece work’’ basis e.g. rate per day or rate per unit worked.
3.4 Zambia Telecomunications
Currently the telecommunications infrastructure is good for most cities and towns. The rural areas are not as well connected though there is a significant investment ongoing to provide access for most of Zambia. Many towers in the rural areas are powered by solar energy. Generator backup is present at many tower sites. It is very easy to get sim cards and mobile phones provided an ID document is provided by the requesting individual. Data is available in all major centres and there is competition between the major operators.

3.5 Zambia Food and Additional Suppliers
Food suppliers are plentiful in Zambia. However, for blended food or milled food, fortifications are not normally part of the production process. Oil, sugar, maize and pulses are easily obtained. There is a capacity issue with regards to large scale up of requirements and careful attention to the markets is required. Maize is readily available and a major export.
Generic country information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures. For a general overview of country data related to the service and supply sectors, please consult the following sources:

3.5.1 Zambia Food Suppliers
Overview
Food is readily available and there is significant number of producers and major retailers able to provide food commodities in the country. Suppliers have locations for collection of commodities direct from farms and production facilities primarily in the north and east. Food Reserve Agency (FRA) is the national strategic grain reserve and holds primarily maize in its facilities throughout the country. Milled commodities particularly maize meal is available in every supermarket. Most millers have both a processing plant and retail stores. Fortification is not widespread and the national policy is being developed. There are oil plants both in Lusaka and the Copperbelt. The largest sugar producer is Zambia Sugar PLC located about 125 km south of Lusaka and there are also some sugar producers in Luapula and Lusaka provinces. Other food commodities like rice are available on the market and predominantly grown in Western and Eastern Provinces of Zambia.
Additional information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures. For more specific and detailed overviews of food availability and market conditions, please consult the following sources:

3.6 Zambia Additional Service Providers
Overview
The market in Zambia can support most organisations' operations. Most requirements are available on the local markets or there is an ability to acquire the service within the region. In terms of the distribution network, Zambia has an advantageous position in the region because its versatile supply chain networks.
For more information on company contact details, please see the following link: 4.11 Zambia Additional Services Contact List.
Accommodation
Accommodation is readily available throughout the country, though in the most rural areas there are fewer choices.
Electricity and Power
Zambia has a wide range of energy resources, particularly woodlands and forests, hydropower, coal and renewable sources of energy. Petroleum is the only energy source that is currently wholly imported. Hydro power is the most important energy source in the country after wood fuel, contributing about 10 percent to the national energy supply, and is generated by three major hydro-electric power stations. Additional hydro-electric power stations are being constructed at Kafue Gorge and more northern blocks are yet to be obtained. Other energy resources are petroleum, coal and wood. The state-owned Zambia Electricity Supply Corporation (ZESCO) is the main producer and distributor of electricity in the country.
The company’s transmission system comprises a total of 4,638 kilometers (km) of transmission lines spread as follows: 2,008 km of 330 kilo Volt (kV) lines, 348 km of 220 kV, 85 km of 132 kV, 704 km of 88 kV, and 2,823 km of 66 kV lines. The total transformer installed capacity is about 3,000 Mega Volt Amps.
There have not been any major additions to the country’s generation capacity in the last 20-30 years despite the huge potential in hydro resources. It is estimated that Zambia possesses 40 percent of the water resources in the Southern African Development Community. Zambia has about 6,000 MW of unexploited hydro power potential, while only about 2, 259 MW is the current installed capacity. On the other hand, the demand for power in the various sectors of the economy has grown rapidly over the years and continues to grow. Demand for electricity continued to increase to 2400 MW through 2015 creating a deficit of more than 550MW. Electricity is imported from Malawi for the eastern areas of the country.
Electricity accounts for approximately 14% of the country’s energy supply mix, ranking second to wood fuel. As at March 2016, total World Bank investment commitment to the sector stood at US$165million in two projects: Kafue Town – Muzuma – Victoria Falls Regional Transmission Line Reinforcement
Project that aims improving the reliability and capacity for regional power trade in ZESCO’s southern network; and the Lusaka Transmission and Distribution Rehabilitation Project that will increase capacity and improve reliability for the transmission and the distribution network in and around Lusaka. (World Bank)
Financial Service Providers
Financial services in Zambia are widespread throughout the country and limited only by connectivity and electricity. Main headquarters of all the institutions are in Lusaka.
Clearing and Forwarding Agents
There are a number of companies in Zambia that offer freight forwarding services. It is important to identify those that can ensure electronic services at all border points to meet the ZRA requirements for e-payments, pre-registration, alerts and clearance. Bollore Logistics, and AMI Worldwide (Manica), to name a couple meet these specifications.
Postal and Courier Services
National postal service is functional. Courier services for all the main international courier service providers are present in Lusaka.
