Southern Africa remains functional, but the Lubumbashi–Durban route shows signs of structural stress. Zimbabwe sits in a very strategic position within this regional logistics chain, yet inefficiencies at borders, policy inconsistency, aging infrastructure, currency instability, and high transport costs continue to reduce its full trade potential.

This is important because Zimbabwe should naturally be one of Southern Africa’s strongest transit and industrial hubs due to its location between South Africa, Zambia, Mozambique, and Botswana

North Africa is emerging as one of the continent’s most efficient trade zones, especially through the Tanger Med–Europe and Cairo–Suez corridors. Strong port infrastructure, industrial policy, and proximity to Europe are creating real trade advantages.

• West and Central Africa still face major bottlenecks. Corridors like Douala–Bangui and Lagos–Kano show how border delays, insecurity, weak rail systems, and fragmented policies continue to slow regional trade.

Africa’s biggest trade barriers today are becoming institutional rather than geographic.
