Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Mozambique Grants Zambia Land for Dry Port in Nacala<\/p>\n

Transport and Logistics Minister Frank Tayali says a dry port has been bequeathed to Zambia by the Government of Mozambique.<\/p>\n

The development was revealed by Mozambique\u2019s Minister of Transport and Logistics, Joao Matlombe, on the sidelines of the Global Transport Connectivity Forum 2025 at the Istanbul Congress Centre in Turkey.<\/p>\n

Mr. Tayali says the land has been acquired not only to strengthen bilateral relations but also to ease the means of doing business.<\/p>\n

He assured that Zambia has already established a vibrant company, ZAMCARGO, which will administer the operations of the dry port in Mozambique, as it currently does in Namibia and Tanzania.<\/p>\n

Mr. Tayali also disclosed that the government is engaging development partners such as the World Bank to help finance the feasibility study for the Chipata to Serenje Railway Project.<\/p>\n

He explained that the railway project will eventually connect to the Chipata\u2013Mchinji Railway Line in Malawi, linking to Nacala along Africa\u2019s eastern seaboard, which is known for its operational efficiency.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Mr. Matlombe directed his technical team to work closely with their Zambian counterparts to ensure the formalization of the project is treated with urgency.<\/p>\n

Mr. Matlombe said Mozambique is ready to allocate land in Nacala to Zambia, and that it will be titled to avoid any form of encumbrances.<\/p>\n
