Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Angola has advantages in transporting salt to African countries, especially landlocked ones, via the Lobito Corridor, said the owner of the Calombolo salt mines, Ade\u0301rito Areias.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to the businessman, Namibia and Egypt are the country’s biggest competitors and charge the same prices, but Angola wins in rail transport, as it is cheaper.<\/p>\n

“Namibia, for example, takes salt by truck from Walvis Bay to Lumbumbachi, Democratic Republic of Congo, and how much does this transport cost?”, he asked.<\/p>\n

Ade\u0301rito Areias said that Angola is self-sufficient in salt production and already sells a lot abroad, but it must produce more and youth must embrace this opportunity to reduce the unemployment rate.<\/p>\n

In relation to the production of fishmeal, also produced in the Calombolo salt pans, it is the opinion that this activity should be encouraged, with the construction of small factories.<\/p>\n

“We can no longer waste fish waste by throwing it into the sea. On the contrary, we must use it to make fishmeal”, he argued.<\/p>\n

The Calombolo salt mines have a monthly production of around 250 thousand tons of salt per month.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the Tchicambi salt mines are another one that is being created in the Chamume area (Baia-farta).<\/p>\n

It is a project undertaken by young people with financing from the Development Bank of Angola (BDA), in the order of one billion and 400 thousand kwanzas in phases.<\/p>\n

According to its manager, Sebastia\u0303o Custo\u0301dio, the project, which began in March this year, is already 90 percent complete.<\/p>\n

“In the first phase we will harvest three thousand tons, as it is the beginning, and when the process gains consistency, we will reach between fifteen and twenty tons\/month”, he stated.<\/p>\n

Sebastia\u0303o Custo\u0301dio informed that the project was financed for 64 hectares, but his intervention already exceeds one hundred. Its total area is 300 hectares.<\/p>\n

“Within two to three years we want to reach 300 hectares.<\/p>\n

Currently, the salt factory has 150 workers but hopes to reach 400 by the time the salt is harvested.<\/p>\n
