HIS EXCELLENCY DR. JOHN POMBE MAGUFULI, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA
Quotes from His Excellency’s speeches on industrialization in Tanzania.
“My wish and in fact the efforts of the Fifth Phase Government will be geared towards achieving this goal of a middle income economy so that the lives of most Tanzanians would truly reflect the middle-income picture of the country. One way of getting us there is through expansion of industrialization” – When inaugurating the 11th Parliament in Dodoma, 20th November 2015
“On the whole, research findings show that the absence of reliable infrastructures for transportation reduces the gross national product for African countries by some two (2) percent and increase transportation costs by forty (40) percent. This is one of the reasons that make our countries incapable of competing with other continents in trade, investments and similarly in industrial development.” – When inaugurating the 11th Parliament in Dodoma, 20th November 2015
“My dear colleagues, I have come here today to honour and recognize the importance of the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI) and Tanzanians who have the intention of establishing industries in Tanzania.” – When addressing CTI members at the President’s Manufacturer of the Year Awards Ceremony at the Dar es Salaam Serena Hotel on 31st May 2016
“I want to assure you that I admire businessmen with good intentions of investing and establishing industries in Tanzania. I will not let you down, and I will use all my energy to help you succeed in your endeavours so that you can do more.” – When addressing CTI members at the President’s
Manufacturer of the Year Awards Ceremony at the Dar es Salaam Serena Hotel on 31st May 2016

“And I am telling you, if you fail (to establish industries/businesses) during this period of the Fifth Phase Government, you will never succeed in your life-time because I will do everything to help you sort out the challenges you are facing.” – When addressing CTI members at the President’s Manufacturer of the Year Awards Ceremony at the Dar es Salaam Serena Hotel on 31st May 2016
“I want this to be an industrial country where people who want to come and invest should be allowed. Whether they are local or they come from outside the country, they should be free to invest without corruption… because corruption is cancer and to fight cancer you just have to cut it and remove it. If it is on the leg cut that part of the leg out quickly before it spreads and that is what we are doing. We have to deal with it ruthlessly, and for that, you have all my assurance and confidence.” – When addressing CTI members at the President’s Manufacturer of the Year Awards Ceremony
at the Dar es Salaam Serena Hotel on 31st May 2016

“We shall continue to work on the various impediments confronting this (industrial) sector, including rectifying our policies and laws where necessary; to create incentives for investment; and to work on bureaucracy, corruption, multiple of taxation, etc. In that regard, I urge the private sector to continue investing in the country.” – When addressing
Honourable Ambassadors and Members of the Diplomatic Corps at the State House in Dar es Salaam on 9th February 2018
“The government I am leading has placed great emphasis on industrial development. And I am happy the response has been great. Many investors, including those from East African Community Member States, are presently investing in the country. I should use this opportunity to ask members of the East African Legislative Assembly to place due emphasis on this matter, especially by ensuring that policies and laws approved in our Community as well as by member countries not only attract more investors but also protect our industries. Indeed, it is necessary to protect our industries. If we do not do so, they will die. Our Community has a population of up to 170 million. This is a major market for our industries.” – When addressing the East African Legislative Assembly, Dodoma, on 24th April 2018

THE VOICE OF INDUSTRY
CONFEDERATION OF TANZANIA INDUSTRIES’ ACHIEVEMENTS The main objective of the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI) is to advocate for a conducive business environment within which Tanzania’s businesses, specifically manufacturers who would become competitive in the domestic, regional and international markets and contribute to poverty reduction. One of the core activities of the Confederation is policy advocacy. This role has acquired CTI the reputation as a key manufacturing sector representative influencing policy change in Tanzania.
16
20 20
Through effective and evidence-based advocacy the contribution of the manufacturing sector to GDP has been positive. In 1994, three years after the establishment of the CTI, the annual growth rate of the manufacturing sector was 2 percent. Under the Fifth Phase Government, we have seen the growth rate increase to 8.3 percent in 2018 from 7.1 percent in 2015. The Sector’s contribution to GDP also increased from 7.1 percent in 2015 to 8.05 percent in 2018. Through its advocacy and engagement with the Government, CTI’s contribution to this good performance has been significant.
Given the unfriendly business environment that existed in the early 1990s, when it was established, CTI identified key issues of priority for advocacy. These included fiscal policy and taxation, legal and regulatory framework, and infrastructure mainly electricity, roads, railways and ports. The Confederation has recorded some achievements through its advocacy efforts. The major achievements are in the following areas:
FISCAL POLICY AND TAXATION One of the main challenges that negatively affected businesses in the early years of the 1990s was high and multiple taxes which could not be predicted by businesses. In realising these fiscal related problems, CTI spent a lot of effort in advocating for the reduction of a number of taxes and tariff rates. A number of researches and studies were carried out in order to inform the government on high and multiple taxes imposed on the business community and manufacturers in particular.
Confederation of Tanzania Industries
The findings and recommendations were submitted to the government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and to the Task Force on Tax Reforms under the Ministry of Finance where CTI has been an active member since its establishment in 1999. Through our effective engagement and participation in the government’s fiscal reform process, CTI made a number of achievements in this area which have helped its members and other non-members to improve their competitiveness in the domestic and external markets. Specific achievements include among others: • Reduction of high interest rates. For example import duty on a number of products has declined from over 100 percent prior to 1995 to a maximum of 25 percent. Where a reduction of duty was not possible CTI has successfully advocated for duty remissions on raw materials necessary for production processing. • Increase in excise duty based on annual inflation rate has removed unpredictable changes on the rates of Excise Duty on excisable products keeping the tax increases to low and predictable levels for the business community allowing them to plan. • The abolition of nuisance taxes that were charged by most local governments is a major achievement of CTI. • Abolition of import duty on capital goods and raw materials is also another one of the outstanding achievements of CTI.

THE VOICE OF INDUSTRY
LEGAL AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK REFORMS The adoption of the central planning system which followed the establishment of the Arusha Declaration on Socialism and Self Reliance in 1967 led the government to establish rules and regulations which prohibited the private sector from effective participation in the economy. However, the economic reforms that the government had to undertake starting mid 1980s through the 1990s, had witnessed the market economy being re-introduced. The participation of the private sector under the liberalized free market economy required amendments or establishment of business rules and regulations to effectively and efficiently allow the private sector to operate. In the year 2000, CTI undertook a study on the Review of the Legal and Regulatory Framework which found more than 60 rules and regulations that were a hindrance to business operations under the market economy. Based on the study, the Confederation submitted a number of recommendations to the government. Through them a number of achievements were made. These include: • The establishment of a Commercial Court which has helped to speed up hearings and judgment of Commercial cases. • Improvement in the Income Tax and National Government Procurement Acts which has helped the private sector to enhance its performance. • Amendments to labour related laws made it easier for the private sector to hire competent
18
20 20
workers and fire incompetent workers thus enhancing efficiency and productivity. • Enforcement of the Merchandise Act of 1962 which enhanced the government efforts towards combatting counterfeit goods. CTI was the first institution to alert the public on the adverse effects of counterfeits. To-date the public is aware of the adverse effects of counterfeit goods and indeed the Fair Competition Commission (FCC) is taking appropriate measures in fighting counterfeit products.
INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT Poor infrastructure and high cost of power and transportation, especially electricity, roads, railways and ports have had a negative impact on the competitiveness of industries in Tanzania. In realising this, CTI has been advocating for their improvement. To this end CTI has conducted studies on assured electricity supply, raised concerns on the congestion of the port of Dar es Salaam, poor central railway facilities and poor rural roads. It should be noted that the government has taken commendable measures to improve these areas. Specifically, the Fifth Phase Government has embarked into construction of a Standard Gauge Railway system, expansion of the port facilities, construction of the Mwalimu Nyerere hydro power station (Stigler’s Gorge) and revamping of air transportation services. These measures have gone a long way in enhancing the confidence of the business community in Tanzania and their finalization will see the competitiveness of Tanzania business and industries improved thus, making Tanzania an attractive investment destination.
Confederation of Tanzania Industries
REGIONAL INTEGRATION Regional integration is critical in determining the competitiveness of industries in the participating countries. CTI participated effectively in the establishment of the East African Community Customs Union whose membership comprise Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, South Sudan and Uganda. CTI is an active member of the National and Regional Task Force on the Comprehensive Review of East African Community Common External Tariff (EAC CET) and participated in expert meetings on tariff rate reviews organised by the Ministry of Finance and Planning and the East African Community Secretariat. The aim of the exercise was to discuss the state of the play of the current EAC Common External Tariff (CET) with the aim of promoting industries in the region. CTI has also participated in various consultative meetings to inform the country’s position in the negotiations for the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). CTI’s views and opinions were incorporated in discussing modalities for the AfCFTA’s Rules of Origin, its legal documents and the development of Tanzania’s Tariff Offer.
The position of CTI aimed at protecting local industries and promoting competitiveness in the domestic market.
IMPROVED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOVERNMENT During its 29 years of existence, CTI has managed to improve the working relationship and trust between the government and the private sector. The increased collaboration has seen the private sector being invited to participate in the government policy, strategies and programmes formulation, implementation and evaluation and thus, making it possible for the private sector concerns and interests to be taken onboard in various Government decisions. CTI’s agenda in the next five years is to continue advocating for the improvement of the business environment in Tanzania, and specifically, mitigating the challenges that are adversely affecting businesses in Tanzania in order to enhance competitiveness of CTI members and the business community at large. This will lead into high economic growth and contribute towards poverty reduction.

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN TANZANIA BY TANZANIA INVESTMENT CENTRE INTRODUCTION 28
20 20
For over the past decade TANZANIA has put in place the most conducive investment environment following major reforms undertaken in the legal, fiscal and public service sectors. Tanzania has a vibrant market based economy. The government is no longer involved in directly doing business. It has taken a back seat in running the economy and the private sector is now in charge. Over the last decade, the economic reforms implemented in Tanzania have generated an improved macroeconomic performance. There has been a rapid real GDP growth, low inflation rate and a stable foreign exchange market.
HE. Dr. John Pombe Magufuli, President Of The United Republic Of Tanzania
INVESTMENT FACILITATION Tanzania has undertaken economic liberalization measures that aim at facilitating investors to realize their goals. It has introduced numerous structural and legal reforms to ensure easiness in starting and doing business in the Country. Investors are facilitated in establishing their business through the Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) One Stop Facilitation Centre under which 11 government Ministries, Departments and Agencies related to investments are stationed to assist investors in fast-tracking the registration and licencing process manner. Investors are facilitated in issues related to Company Registration, Immigration, Labour, Land, Tax, Environment Certificate, Product Standard Certificate, Tanzania Medicines and Medical Devices Authority, Permits, Occupation Safety and Health Compliance Certificate, Business License, and National Identification Number.

It provides a roadmap with steps to follow, where to go, who to see, documents to submit and provides full access to downloadable application forms and legal justifications. It also provides an opportunity to interact online with the Centres’ dedicated agents. Through this website, the government has improved the level of transparency in its procedures, reduced red tape and reduced time and cost for business start-ups.
INVESTMENT INCENTIVES The government provides fiscal and non fiscal incentives to investors through the Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC), these investment incentives are provided under tax laws and additional benefits are provided through the Tanzania Investment Act, the Export Processing Zones Act and Special Economic Zones Act. The incentives include 0% import duty on capital goods and 0% import duty on deemed capital goods for the projects registered by Export Processing Zones Authority (EPZA), where as import duty on deemed capital goods for projects registered by the Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) are exempted by 75%. All registered projects are eligible for five (5) automatic work permits for foreign employees. Transfer of funds is allowed through any authorized bank in freely convertible currency of net profits, repayment of foreign loans, royalties, fees and charges in respect of foreign technology, remittance of proceeds and payment of emoluments, etc. Furthermore, the Corporate Income Tax is 20% for new investors in the pharmaceutical and leather industries for five (5) consecutive years from the date of commencement of production.

INVESTMENT GUARANTEE Protection of private property is guaranteed by the Constitution and International treaties. Investments are guaranteed against Nationalization and Expropriation. Investors are allowed to repatriate profits and dividends without inhibitions. Besides, Tanzania is a signatory and a party to several multilateral and bilateral agreements on protection and promotion of investments i.e. Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) and African Trade Insurance Agency (ATIA). Tanzania also benefits as a member of various regional trading blocs and bilateral cooperation agreements including the African Growth and Opportunity Act (“AGOA”) legislation, of which more than 6,000 products enjoy duty and quota free access to the U.S.A. Market. Tanzania’s legal and tax regime strikes a good balance between revenue generation and appropriate reward to investors, and is acknowledged as competitive.
WHY INVEST IN TANZANIA Tanzania enjoys an abundance of natural wealth, which offers tremendous investment opportunities for investors. These include an excellent geographical location; arable land; mineral deposits and raw materials supply, a sizeable domestic and sub regional market; abundant and inexpensive labour; friendly people; a sizable market of about 450m people in EAC and SADC and the world-renowned tourist attractions (the Serengeti, Kilimanjaro, Ngorongoro, and the islands of Zanzibar). The following are among the major reasons one should invest in Tanzania:
ECONOMIC STABILITY WITH HIGH GROWTH POTENTIAL Tanzania is experiencing sustained economic growth, with Gross Domestic Product (GDP) consistently growing at an average of 7% per annum for the last 10 years. This is a result of economic reforms and sound economic policies that were introduced since the second half of the 1990’s. The largest export contributors continue to be primary commodities, particularly gold, coffee, tea, cashew nuts and cotton. At the same time, the volume of manufactured exports has surged in recent years, with the lion’s share of these exports going to markets within the region. Meanwhile, tourism is Tanzania’s main foreign exchange earner.
RICH NATURAL RESOURCES Tanzania is endowed with a variety of natural resources including a 1,424 kilometre coastline, large arable land, world class tourist attractions, minerals, and oil and gas. Arable land, conducive weather, and ground and surface water provide opportunities in agro-processing, livestock, leather production and agriculture. Tanzania is also a country rich with minerals. Precious gemstones and industrial minerals such as coal, iron, nickel, ore, gold and silver are abundant in Tanzania. The large natural gas reserves that have been discovered provide the most significant transformative factor in the economy.
STRATEGIC LOCATION Tanzania is accessible through the Indian Ocean, which gives it trade links to Asia, and sits in between six (6) landlocked countries; (Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”), Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia and Malawi) that rely on Tanzania as the most efficient point for the passage of goods.
30
20 20
The country has three (3) deep water ports (Dar es Salaam, Tanga and Mtwara) that service these neighbouring countries. Furthermore, Tanzania is a natural and effective transportation gateway into Eastern, Southern and Central Africa due to its membership in the SADC Free Trade Area and EAC Common Market as well as its rail and road networks. Apart from being a point for the passage of goods, Tanzania’s internal production capabilities, driven by rich natural resources, e.g. large size arable land and mineral deposits makes it a natural hub for economic activity in the East African Region.
PEACE AND POLITICAL STABILITY Tanzania is one of the most peaceful and politically stable countries in Africa. Since its independence in 1961, the country has never experienced a civil war or any major internal strife. Tanzanians continue to live in peace and with a sense of a common national identity without ethnic division. Since independence in 1961 under the leadership of the father of the nation, the late Julius Kambarage Nyerere, Tanzania has witnessed five (5) transfers of leadership through free and fair elections. Since 1992, Presidential terms are limited to two (2) terms (each term of five (5) years).
MARKET ACCESS Investing in Tanzania guarantees access to a market of more than 450 million people in Eastern and Southern Africa in which Tanzania enjoys preferential trade arrangements, also Tanzania qualifies to export textile and apparel and more than 6,000 products to the United States (US) under AGOA by virtue of being a member of 162 million people in EAC and 450 million people in SADC. Tanzania is a Trade partner with China (Over 4,000 items), Canada, and Japan. Investing in Tanzania therefore provides the advantage and opportunity to access local, regional and international markets.
INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES To support these policies, we have in place basic infrastructure services such as water, power, roads, railways, air transport, and telecommunication, which are available at varying degrees. Currently, one is assured of electricity and mega power generation project known Stiegler’s Gorge Hydroelectric Power Station (Nyerere Dam) which is on the way. The project will be able to generate about 2115 MW when completed. Most key
31
20 20
economic centres are connected with good roads and a Standard Gauge Railway from Dar es Salaam to Mwanza is being constructed. Telecommunication is adequately available throughout the country and have revived our Airline (Air Tanzania), which provides services to various destinations within the country.
FDI FLOWS INTO TANZANIA Tanzania is the leading recipient of FDI in the EAC region. The flow of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into the country has steadily increased over the last ten years. To-date, potential investors consider Tanzania as their most favoured investment destination in Africa.
INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES Tanzania enjoys an abundance of natural wealth, which offers tremendous investment opportunities for investors in various sectors. There are unlimited investment and business opportunities in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, health, aquaculture, livestock, economic infrastructure (including energy), ICT and tourism sectors.
MANUFACTURING The objectives of our five-year development plan covering the period 2016/17 to 2020/21 are to mobilize and organize the national resources strategically in order to nurture an industrial economy. This aims at transforming Tanzania into a semi-industrialized nation by 2025; accelerate economic growth while making sure that the quality of that growth will benefit the majority of the people in terms of significant poverty reduction and job creation especially for the youth and women; and foster and strengthen implementation effectiveness. Priority interventions geared at nurturing an industrial economy include heavy investment in energy and strategic transport infrastructure projects, reviving of natural resource-based industry, geographical advantage-based industry, production of medicine and medical equipment, edible oil processing, processing of meat, milk, hides and skins and labour endowment-based industry to take advantage of abundant and relatively low-cost labour. Other areas include light industry, ICT Based Industry and Technological Adaptation and Urban Industry to take advantage of the potential of growing urban centres.
AGRICULTURE 32
20 20
Tanzania has 44 million hectares of arable land with an estimated 29.4 million hectares suitable for irrigation. Potential investors are invited to undertake largescale commercial farming of crops such as sugarcane, rice, wheat, coffee, tea
and maize. Tanzania has a huge potential for wheat farming and sugar production. The wheat farming and sugar production is supported with vast water sources, good climatic conditions and huge market potential.
MINING AND METALS Mining has placed Tanzania in the higher ranks of African economies in terms of attracting FDIs. Mining is among the sectors that contribute a significant share to the country’s export revenues. The Government’s plan is to have this sector contribute 10 percent of GDP by 2025. Tanzania is endowed with a variety of industrial minerals and precious metals as well as gemstones. The minerals include iron ore, soda ash, coal, clay soil, uranium, gold, diamond and tanzanite. Most of these resources are being exported in their raw form without being processed; thus, denying the country income and jobs. Investors are invited to invest in projects that are involved in adding value to and beneficiation of mining products as appropriate. This includes processing of precious metals and gemstones, production of iron ore and steel, processing of nickel and extraction of uranium.
TOURISM Another sector offers plenty of investment opportunities. It is a fastgrowing sector in the country. Tanzania’s tourism industry accounts for about 24.0 % of exports and 17.2% of GDP. Tanzania is the only country in the world that has allocated more than 25% of its total area for wildlife and other resources’ conservation. There are 16 National Parks, 31 Game Reserves, 44 Game Controlled areas, one (1) Conservation area and two (2) Marine Parks. Tanzania wildlife resources are considered among the finest in the world and have been widely known for many years. At the moment huge numbers of tourists visit Tanzania every year. Opportunities exist for investing in areas such as tour-operation business, and tourism infrastructure development particularly construction of first-class tourist hotels, air ground transport, cultural and historical sites, leisure parks, and game parks as well as along the 850 miles coast line of mainland Tanzania and the beautiful shores of the spice Island of Zanzibar for beach tourism.
SERVICES SECTOR There are enormous opportunities in the services sector particularly ICT which is among the fastest-growing sub-sectors in Tanzania. There has been a rapid growth and transformation of the communications market
33
20 20
in Tanzania in the last 10 years. The ICT market has grown in terms of subscribers, variety of services and the expansion of the coverage area. There are unlimited investment opportunities in this area with prospects of a growing regional market. Potential areas for investment include provision of mobile services especially in rural areas as penetration is higher in urban areas, provision and operation of value added network/ data services (internet, voice mail, electronic mail services) and repair and maintenance of telecommunications facilities. Investors are welcome to invest in these high pay areas where they are guaranteed quick returns on their investments. A financial service is another sub-sector with plenty of investment opportunities. We welcome potential investors to establish financial institutions such as Microfinance banks; Investment banks; Agricultural banks and Commercial banks.
ECONOMIC ZONES The country gears up to become an industrialized middle-income country by 2025. In line with this vision the country has decided to put greater emphasis on building a strong industrial base. To this end, Tanzania has set up Export Processing Zones (EPZs) and Special Economic Zones (SEZs) as ponds of industrial growth and services to promote export trade.
FISHERY
34
20 20
The country is experiencing a shortage of over 400,000 tonnes of fish, which represents a business and investment opportunity for the private sector. About 80% of the fish supplied in Tanzania were captured from the seas and lakes and there are 20,000 public fish ponds that produce just 10,000 tonnes per year ‘yet, the demand for fishery products is high’. In order to promote agribusiness in Tanzania, the government has reduced
import taxes on most of the agricultural equipment including those used in fish farming. In line with this investors are advised to invest in this sector whereby, opportunities range from Deep Sea Fishing, Fish Processing & Canning, Aqua/Mari culture and Establishment of landing facilities.
CONCLUSION Tanzania is no doubt, a great place to invest in Africa. Over the past decade we have put in place the conducive environment you can think of. We are ready to do business with you and our doors are wide open, we have everything that you need to invest in Tanzania; a facilitative government, abundant natural resources, educated labour force, a sizeable and captive market together with a unique location for private sector growth including maintained peace and political stability. Potential investors are invited to take advantage of these opportunities by investing in TANZANIA.
Welcome to Tanzania – come grow with us!

TANZANIA OFFERS TAX INCENTIVES TO BOOST INDUSTRIALIZATION
Headquarters of Tanzania Revenue Authority along Sokoine Drive in Dar es Salaam.
The Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) was established by The Act of Parliament No. 11 of 1995, and started its operations on 1st July 1996. The Authority was formed as an integrated semi-autonomous agency of the government vested with the responsibility to administer government taxes, duties and non-tax revenues.
36
20 20
voluntary tax compliance; Improve the quality of services provided to the taxpayers; Counteract fraud and other forms of tax and fiscal evasion as well as Producing trade statistics and publications among others.
The vested responsibility is translated into its main functions which include: to assess, collect and account for all Government Revenue; Administer effectively all the revenue laws of the Government; Advise the Government on all matters relating to fiscal policy; Promote
In the course of implementing its functions, TRA has envisioned “To increase Domestic Revenue through Enhancement of Voluntary Tax Compliance” with a mission that states, “We make it easy to pay Tax and make lives better” and hence stipulates the corporate core values in provision of services which are Professionalism, Accountability and Integrity.
The President of the United Republic of Tanzania H.E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli speaking with Regional Commissioners, Ministers, Regional 1 Administrative Secretaries and Tanzania Revenue Authority’s Management and staff during a meeting to discuss several issues regarding taxes and duties held in Julius Nyerere International Convention Centre in Dar es Salaam.
Some members of the Parliamentary Budget Committee together with the Tanzania Revenue Authority’s management in an official visit in one of the spirit manufacturers in Dar es Salaam which have installed the Electronic Tax Stamp (ETS) Scanning and Activating System (SAS) so as to monitor production. The spirit industry was the most challenging in terms of under declaration and counterfeits.
In addition to the authority’s vision, TRA is also implementing the vision of H.E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli, the President of the United Republic of Tanzania that Tanzania envisages to become a semi-industrialized and a middle-income economy by 2025. In making sure that these visions comes true, the Tanzania government through TRA has made efforts to create a good business environment by amending some Tax Laws Administered by TRA with a view to impose and alter certain taxes, duties, levies and fees together with other written laws relating to the collection and administration of government revenue to support the industrialization vision. The tax laws amendments include the: Corporation tax, Value Added Tax (VAT), Import duty and Excise duty. Under Corporation tax; a corporation with a newly established plant for assembling motor vehicles, tractors, fishing boats or out boat engines and having a performance agreement with the government of the United Republic of Tanzania for the first five years from commencement of production pays a lower corporation tax at the rate of 10 percent instead of 30 percent that is paid by other companies. In addition, a newly established entity dealing in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals or leather products and having a performance agreement with the Government of Tanzania shall be taxed at a reduced corporate rate for five consecutive years from the year of commencement of production by paying corporation tax at the rate of 20 percent instead of 30 percent.
37
20 20
Furthermore, an entity dealing in manufacturing of sanitary pads and having a performance agreement with the Government of the Tanzania shall be taxed at a reduced corporate rate of 25 percent instead of 30 percent for two consecutive years effective 1st July, 2019 to 30th June, 2021. Under the Value Added Tax Act, the incentive is set to exempt supplies and imports as provided in the Schedule to the VAT Act, Cap 148 read with Finance Act, 2017, 2018 and 2019. On the other hand, essential human and veterinary medicine, drugs, medical equipment, and packaging materials which have been approved by the Minister responsible for health. Provided that, the packaging material is specifically designed for packing of pharmaceutical products and printed for use by a local manufacturer whose name appears on the packaging material shall enjoy exemption. As for the horticulture sector, VAT incentives cover also exemption on import of Refrigerated containers of HS Code 8418.69.20 by a person engaged in horticulture for exclusive use in horticulture in Mainland Tanzania. The intention is to reduce production costs and promote modern horticultural farming in the country. Furthermore, VAT is exempted on imports of grain drying equipment of HS Code 8419.31.00 by a person engaged in agriculture for exclusive use in agriculture in Mainland Tanzania. The intention is to reduce costs incurred in grain drying for storage purposes.
38
20 20
The Electronic Tax Stamp (ETS) Scanning and Activation System (SAS) installed at excisable goods manufacturers to monitor production in one of the spirit manufacturers in Dar es Salaam. The spirit industry was the most challenging in terms of under declaration and counterfeits but after ETS implementation, the challenges are reduced if not removed at all.
Similarly, the amendments in the VAT Act in 2019 has exempted residual cakes from Oil Cakes of Soya beans HS Code 2304.00.00, Oil Cakes and other solid residue of cotton seeds HS Code 2306.10.00, Oil Cakes and other solid residue of sunflower seeds HS Code 2306.30.00, Maize brans HS Code 2302.10.00, Wheat brans HS Code 2302.30.00, Lysine HS Code 2922.41.00, Methionine HS Code 2930.40.00, Mycotoxin binders HS Code 3824.10.00, Lysine HS Code 2922.41.00, Methionine HS Code 2930.40.00 and Mycotoxin binders HS Code 3824.10.00. The purpose is to reduce production cost for animal feeds in order to promote animal husbandry.
Finally, sugar confectionary (sweets), (HS Code 1704.90.00), Chocolates (HS Code 18.06), Biscuits (HS Code 19.05), Tomato sauce (HS Code 2103.20.00), Mineral water (HS Code 2201.10.00), Meat and edible offal, Sausages and similar products (HS Code 1601.00.00) and Sugar (consumption sugar) will also pay 35 percent instead of 25 percent. In the same spirit, the government introduced Electronic Tax Stamps (ETS) for excisable goods which replaced the physical paper stamps that were heavily linked to incidents of tax evasion and counterfeiting. This is one of the Government’s moves geared towards improving tax administration in the country by enabling both the government and respective manufacturers have a fair share of revenue. ETS provides advantages to the Government, Manufacturers/Importers and Consumers through Safeguarding Government Revenue by deterring counterfeiting and protecting consumers as it enables authentication of tax stamps using mobile apps, creating a tax compliance mechanism covering all traders in the segment to enhance fair competition, tracking and tracing of goods right from the production lines and customs entry points to the final points of sale and enabling accounting for the production of excisable goods manufactured or imported.
For the case of Excise duty, the government has reduced excise duty rate on wine produced using domestically grown fruits and grains like (bananas, cashew nuts, rozela, tomatoes etc.) and produced locally other than grapes with contents exceeding 75 percent from Tanzania shillings 200 per litre to Tanzania shillings 61 per litre. The intention is to encourage voluntary tax compliance and promote growth of the small and medium scale industries with a view to increase Government revenue. An excise duty rate of 10 percent is imposed on imported pipes and plastics materials (tubes, pipes and hoses and fittings i.e. joints, elbows flanges etc.) on products under HS Code 39.17. The objective is to protect local industries who produce such products and hence encourage more industries to be built. Accordingly, the Tanzania government has requested to increase import duty rates from the normal East Africa Community Customs duty rates for some items so as to protect and promote local industries in the country. The import duty increased on the items include uncoated kraft paper and paperboard, in rolls or sheets, other than that of heading 48.02 or 48.03 will pay 25 percent instead of 0 percent, Palm oil and its fractions will pay 35 percent instead of 10 percent. Consequently, Soya beans oil, ground nuts oil, olive oil, other oil and its fractions whether or not refined but not chemically modified will pay 35 percent instead of 25 percent. Palm oil RDB 1511.90.30, Palm oil – Other, sunflower-seed or sunflower oil and fractions thereof, cotton seed oil, coconut (copra) oil will pay 35 percent instead of 10 percent. In addition to this, crude edible oils (for example sunflower oil, palm oil, groundnuts oil, olive oil, maize corn oil etc.); Semi-refined and refined/double refined edible oil (for example sunflower oil; palm oil, groundnuts oil, olive oil, maize corn oil etc.); Potatoes (HS Code 0701.90.00) and Chewing gum (HS Code 1704.10.0) will pay 35 percent instead of 25 percent.
The use of ETS is applicable for selected excisable goods and the list of which may be changed from time to time to improve tax administration ETS applies to the following goods manufactured or imported into the United Republic of Tanzania; Wine and spirits, Mineral and carbonated water, Cigarettes and Film and Music products. Other goods include Juices, Beverages, Beer, Liqueurs and cordials, Perfumed products, Petroleum jelly Lubricants, Disc and Tapes and Smart Cards. The effective date for use of the ETS by manufacturers and importers as for the first phase was 15th January, 2019 where it comprised of Cigarettes, Wines, Spirits, Beer and other alcoholic beverages. The second phase of the ETS use was 15th August, 2019 and it included sweetened or flavored water and other non-alcoholic beverages. The prevailing good business environment is made with intent not only to implement the President’s vision of industrialization but to also build a base for better revenue collection. It is through industrialization that employment will increase, there will be growth in production technology including growth in small and medium industries as well as large ones and ultimately also improve the standard of living of Tanzanians.

Incubator Program SIDO Business and Technology Incubator is a service aiming to support entrepreneurs who have innovative and creative business or industrial ideas in nurturing them to develop to a level of competitive and innovative business enterprises. The main objective of the program is to support and assist entrepreneurs in implementing their innovative ideas by turning them into productive business enterprises and also improve the chance of growth and the rate of survival of the already existing Small and Medium enterprises. The target group/beneficiaries are the existing Small and Medium Entrepreneurs, individuals and graduates from Colleges, Universities and other training Institutions, having innovative and creative business or industrial ideas for commercialization. The incubates are provided with working premises, a technical advice consultancy, access to information through ICT facility, linkage to other institutions, financial support through soft loans along with other Business Development Services on demand. This creates a smooth start, growth, competitiveness and sustainability of enterprises. The services offered by the incubator program create opportunities for entrepreneur’s goals of developing marketable products and services. The program established and piloted in Dar Es Salaam since 2003 and expanded to Arusha, Mbeya, Mwanza, Singida and Rukwa from 2008. About 87 ideas saved through the program since its inception in 2003, with 32 enterprises graduating from the program.
The demand for working premises from MSMIs in the country is high and is among the challenges that face the country. Most of MSMIs are operating informally and unlawfully in unsafe environments that limit to comply with quality standards requirements. In addressing the mentioned challenge, the organization managed to build 12 industrial sheds in Dodoma, Kagera, Manyara and Mtwara region, Funds worth Tzs. 5 Billion were provided by the Government of Tanzania.
One District One Product (ODOP) Program From July 2007, SIDO introduced a One-District One Product Strategy Plan to stimulate smallscale industrial development with the aim of encouraging stakeholders in each district to select and invest in small industries and produce a single product to accelerate rural economic development. The strategy aimed at ensuring effective value addition and spread of investment in all districts of our country. The strategy is based on resources available in a particular district. Its success depends very much on stakeholders’ participation and commitment in the selection process, production, processing and marketing of the selected product. The specific objectives are: • To utilize resources (raw materials, expertise, skills etc.) available in the District. • To provide services to small and medium-sized enterprises to increase the value addition to locally produced products. • To stimulate rural economic growth by developing rural industries. • To build the capacity of rural entrepreneurs in commercial strategies and the use of appropriate technologies to compete in the regional, national and international markets. • To contribute to environmental conservation.
Together, We Build Industries

VETA IN EFFORTS TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT ARTISANS FOR INDUSTRIALIZATION DRIVE
I trust you are aware that Tanzania aspires to attain a middle income economy, driven by the industrial sector. Different efforts, strategies and significant steps have been made towards attainment of that goal whose target is 2025. Investment and establishment of industries of different levels continues to increase and spread across the country. As the country forges ahead with the implementation of its industrialization agenda and towards realisation of a middle-income economy, it is important to look into key areas which have significant and sustainable contribution to the agenda. One thing important to take note of is that quick, significant and sustainable industrial development requires assurance of a skilled labour force. Precisely, vocational skills are of particular importance. The fact is, industrialization is all about transformation of an economy from primarily agricultural to manufacturing driven. Manufacturing is about processing of raw materials into finished goods through the use of tools and related processes. In other words, it involves value-addition processes that result into finished products, ready for the market. It is here where the importance of vocational skills starts to feature. People with vocational skills or artisans constitute the majority of manpower in industries. It is this group that undertakes all the actual operation of activities in the industries, including running of machines and all other production processes. Therefore, productivity and production efficiency greatly depend on the availability and competence of artisans. In addition, artisans can establish small industries to produce goods for consumers in their localities or for semi-processing of agricultural goods to feed the medium and large industries. All those facts are the drives for the Vocational Education and Training Authority (VETA) to continuously make and implement strategies which results into production of sufficient and competent artisans.

VETA Director General Dr. Pancras Bujulu
VETA is a Government body entrusted with the role of overseeing the development of vocational education and training in the country. For that matter, it has a great role to play in supporting the country’s industrial drive through production of sufficient and competent artisans. VETA is currently implementing its Fifth Strategic Plan (VETA Corporate Plan- VCP
V) 2018/2019 to 2022/2023, which has outlined various strategies to fulfill its mandate within the context of the national development agenda. VETA Director General, Dr. Pancras Bujulu says, “This new strategic plan has greatly taken stock and considered the contemporary socioeconomic trends in Tanzania, including the current industrialisation agenda, the Tanzania Development Vision 2025 and the Tanzania’s Fiveyear Development Plan II of 2016/17–2020/21. Through this plan, we have positioned ourselves to ensure sufficient and competent artisans for supporting in increasing productivity and employment in Tanzania,” In specific, Dr. Bujulu says, the plan cherishes quality of vocational education and training; equitable access to vocational education and training, and improvement of management and administration. The Fifth VETA Corporate Plan, in the life history of VETA, has been prepared with due attention of the current strategic focus of the country, particularly the aim of becoming a middle income country through industrialization, rural development and inclusion of vulnerable groups. He mentions notable targets over the period, including the increasing enrolment in all vocational training centres from the current 302,000 to 700,000 in 2021 and certification of 200,000 informally trained apprentices. Others are increasing enrolment of vocational teacher students from 1500 to 3500 and training of 15,000 informal sector operators through the Integrated Training for Entrepreneurship Promotion (INTEP). “With our core mandate of overseeing vocational education and training in Tanzania, we are obliged to continuously ensure that we address the needs of the labour market by producing competent and employable graduates. VETA is obliged to ensure the diverse groups in society,
51
20 20
including vulnerable groups, have access to vocational education and training and continues to play a great role in contributing to increased productivity in industries and reducing unemployment and poverty in the country,” he says. He mentions different efforts and progress made to increase access to VET with the aim of increasing production and supply of skilled and competent artisans for the Nation’s economic development. Notably, the Authority is vibrantly undertaking construction of new centres in different regions and districts throughout the country. “In 2019, we initiated 40 projects for construction of new centres, rehabilitation and expansion of existing ones, which is a historical intervention in implementation of development projects by the Authority. Among them, construction of the Namtumbo, Urambo and Simanjiro District Vocational Training Centres, and Ndolage Vocational Training Centre were completed and officially inaugurated” he clarifies.
Other projects implemented include construction of regional Vocational Training and Service Centres for Rukwa, Geita, Njombe and Kagera Regions. Also, district vocational training centres for Nkasi, Ileje, Newala, Kasulu, Itilima, Ngorongoro, Babati and Chato Districts, have either been completed or are in final stages. In recognition of VETA efforts in preparing a skilled labour force for the countries economic development and understanding the importance of vocational training, the Parliament in its Budgetary session for 2019/2020 endorsed an additional budget of Tshs 40bn for construction of district vocational training centres in other 25 districts. The districts to be covered through that additional budget include Chunya, Kilindi, Korogwe, Ukerewe, Igunga, Pangani, Kishapu, Rufiji, Uyui, Kwimba, Bahi, Mafia, Longido, Mkinga, Uvinza, Ikungi, Iringa Rural, Lushoto, Mbarali, Monduli, Buhigwe, Ulanga, Masasi, Butiama and Chemba. Dr. Bujulu says VETA greatly values the trust it has been given by the government and the Parliament. Therefore, to ensure efficient utilisation of resource and value for money, VETA has decided to construct those 25 Centres by Force Account. He says, the Authority has sufficient human resources, including engineers, technicians, artisans, procurement specialists, certified accountants and lawyers, and pertinent facilities, thus confident to use the Force Account method to carry out the construction projects. To ensure wider reach in vocational skills development, the Authority has diversified its modes of training. Apart from institutional training, it also uses Outreach, Apprenticeship, Distance Learning and Recognition of Prior Learning Assessment (RPLA) as other modes of training delivery. Those modes provide flexibility and avenues for different groups of people to learn and sharpen their vocational skills.

For instance, the Integrated Training for Entrepreneurship Promotion (INTEP), implemented through outreach, has benefited many people in the informal sector. Also, the Dual Apprenticeship programmes implemented by VETA centres of Dar es Salaam and Moshi and involving Electrical, Automotive and Hospitality trades for VETA Dar es Salaam,

and higher learning institutions. However, most of the vocational trainees find it difficult to follow and comprehend instructions in the English language.
Also, VETA has been implementing RPLA programme in collaboration with the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the Prime Minister’s Office-Employment, Labour, Youth and People with Disability. From 2016 to 2019, a total of 10,023 benefited from the programme. Dr. Bujulu also talks of enhancing skills development among vulnerable groups of people. He says further that VETA, in collaboration with stakeholders, regularly develops initiatives to ensure vulnerable groups also have access to vocational training. The aim is to ensure that they are not left behind when the country strives towards the middle-income level. Recent initiatives include the Youth Economic Empowerment project (YEE), implemented in collaboration with Plan International. The project benefited 11,264 vulnerable and economically challenged youth in Mtwara, Lindi, Pwani (the Coast Region) and Dar es Salaam Regions in the years from 2015 to 2018. Also, the Via Pathway to Work project implemented in collaboration with International Youth Foundation (IYF) benefited 3,753 vulnerable youths, including those with disabilities and orphans in Mtwara and Dar es Salaam Regions. It is also important to bear in mind that Tanzania’s national language is Kiswahili. Therefore, English is the second language despite the fact that it is taken as a medium of instruction in secondary schools, vocational
Considering the challenge of the language of instruction and in a bid to further expand the scope and access to vocational education and training, VETA translated 24 Curricula and 16 Syllabuses into Kiswahili and accredited to be used at the Folk Development Colleges where most of the trainees are Ex-Primary Education, thus having difficulty in keeping up with English language. A total of 9,600 copies were printed and handed to the Deputy Secretary for the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, Dr. Ave Maria Semakafu, on 13th December 2019. Dr. Bujulu says, while VETA continues to undertake those efforts to develop the practical skills of people to support economic growth and industrialization, it is imperative that stakeholders and the public understand and take appropriate actions. He especially calls for youth to learn that vocational skills provide them with broader and diverse pathways to employment, particularly during this era of industrialization. He stresses that, with vocational skills, the youth have wider opportunities to gain employment in different industries on one hand and self-employment on the other. He urges them to run for vocational skills in order to widen their employment opportunities and support the country’s industrialization drive.

TANZANIA PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
Q&A Tanzanians have attained several developments in terms of investments and natural resources management in the past few years since the 5th Phase Government took powers in 2015. Despite the fact that there is a lot that has been done by the President and his government as a whole, still there is a lot needed to be done in order to meet the president’s desires, especially making Tanzania a semi-industrial economy come 2025. Taking cognizance of the fact that in order for industries to excel, energy is a pre-requisite resource and TPDC being the overseer mandated for the Oil and Gas sectors development, CTI Correspondent interviewed the institution’s Managing Director, Dr. James Mataragio to share his experience and concern as far as the sector is concerned.
CTI: Based on the objectives of its establishment, what are the mandates of TPDC? ANSWER: The Tanzania Petroleum Development CorporationTPDC, is the national oil company of Tanzania that was established through the Government Notice No.140 of 30 May 1969 under the Public Corporations Act No.17 of 1969. As stipulated in Petroleum Act, 2015, TPDC is obliged to accomplish the following functions:-
54
20 20
• Advising the Government on policy matters pertaining to the petroleum industry; • Participating in petroleum reconnaissance, exploration and development projects; • Carrying out specialized operations in the petroleum value chain using subsidiary companies; • Handling the government’s commercial participating interests in the petroleum sub-sector; • Managing the marketing of the country’s share of petroleum received in kind; • Developing in depth expertise in the petroleum industry; • Investigating and proposing new upstream, midstream
A CALL TO INVESTORS: Come with a positive attitude and a win-win focus. Tanzania is a blessed land with huge discoveries that can transform economies and the social welfare of our people… TPDC
This has stimulated the growth of industries whereby more than 48 industries are connected to the natural gas network. On the other hand, natural gas has ensured consistent in power supply in the country which is the huge factor for industrial growth. CTI: What are the major projects undertaken by TPDC and, or partners and their implications to the national economies. ANSWER: Major projects undertaken by TPDC are as follows:-
and downstream ventures local and international; • Contracting, holding equity or participating in oil service and supply chain franchises and other licenses; • Performing any petroleum activities and related functions. CTI: What is the current status of Oil and Gas discoveries in Tanzania and what are the respective investments made so far and available investment opportunities as well? ANSWER: Oil and gas exploration activities in Tanzania started in the 1950’s and as to date a huge discovery of natural gas has been made in the country. A total of 57.54 TCF (Trillion Cubic Feet) of natural gas has been discovered. Currently oil exploration is underway at Eyasi
Wembere block, Lake Tanganyika North block and Mnazi Bay North block. More than 50% of the country is considered to have potential for hydrocarbons exploration which is suitable for investors.
A. Exploration projects; i. Eyasi Wembere exploration project ii. Mnazi Bay North iii. 41B/41C (TPDC expect to conduct 3D seismic) iv. Songo-Songo West v. LNG project B. Downstream projects; i. Natural gas distribution project (connecting industrial customers, institutions and household customers)
CTI: Discoveries of huge reserves of Natural Gas were expected to solve to the great extent, the problems of power supply in the country therefore stimulating the development of the industrial sector. To what extent have we gone to date?
These projects contribute to the national economy by providing an enabling environment towards achieving industrialization agenda.
ANSWER: The huge reserves of natural gas has solved the problem of power supply in the country whereby 80% of the natural gas discovered in the country is used for power generation that contributes about 57% to the national grid.
ANSWER: TPDC ensures constant supply of energy through natural gas, which is a key towards achieving the industrialization agenda. Under this, TPDC motto is “TUNAWEZESHA”. Literally meaning, “We Empower”
CTI: How is the industrialization agenda addressed in the context of TPDC?

Mandimba Processing plant CTI: Taking cognizance of its cleanliness and efficiency compared to other energy sources, Natural gas is said to have a lot of socioeconomic and political benefits. Based on your self assessment, how far have we gone in terms of exploitation of our natural gas discoveries and to what extent have the oil and Gas fields influenced/affected the lives of Tanzanians? ANSWER: Tanzania has made a huge step towards natural gas exploitation in terms of its usage. As to date, there is an increased number of natural gas users in industries, cars and households. Oil and gas projects have contributed to the improvement of socio-economic welfare of the people through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects undertaken in areas of health, education, water, sports and good governance. On the other hand, these projects have also contributed to employment opportunities to Tanzanians who are working on oil and gas projects, as well as these projects having contributed to the increased number of indirect employment like, local suppliers of goods and services to the industry.
56
20 20
CTI: While previously the government prioritized Natural Gas as the solution to power needs in the country, the 5th phase government is investing a lot in Hydro Power
projects. Do you see TPDC meeting its original objectives for the natural gas industry development? ANSWER: TPDC still is on the position of fulfilling its original objectives of natural gas industry development due to the following; i. The rapid climatic change calls for having a safe and clean energy for environmental protection. Under this, natural gas remains to be one among the safe and clean source of energy.
ii. The contemporary industrial economy demands for having an energy mix instead of depending on one source of energy only, because, the impact may be detrimental when the lone source runs short. E.g. When Tanzania used to depend on hydro-power generation which was highly affected by drought and the country had to engage in power ration. Japan used to depend on nuclear power generation, but when the source was hit by an earthquake, it affected the economy of the country greatly.
CTI: Apart from building infrastructures for distributing the gas for domestic use, one of the areas of great potential was to develop infrastructure for the exportation in order to gain foreign currency through conversion of natural gas into liquid “LNG” project. What is the fate of it? ANSWER: In 2012 it was agreed that the best way to develop the natural gas discovered in deep sea is through the LNG Project for export purposes, in order to meet foreign markets demand. It was also agreed that the project be implemented offshore by exporting raw gas (through pipeline) from the sea with a view of facilitating the availability of natural gas for domestic consumption. Each block involved with the Project will contribute natural gas for the local market in accordance with the Contractors Production and Revenue Agreements (PSA) of the respective contractors. On that basis, in September 2016, the Government and contractors of the project-related blocks began negotiations for the Host Government Agreement (HGA) to facilitate the implementation of the LNG Project. This project is large and of its own in the country, which the Government is well-organized to ensure broad interest for the country is accrued. The government has allocated 2071.7 hectares in Likong’o area, Lindi region for this natural gas (LNG) processing plant. This area is owned by TPDC. The cost of the project will depend on the capacity of the plant machinery and the business structure to be used and thus, all will be decided in ongoing discussions between the partners and the Government. CTI: So far, what are the foreign companies’ interventions in terms of investment in the oil and gas sectors and where do you see Tanzania in the next ten years. Do you see Tanzania achieving its mission to becoming a semi-industrial economy come 2025? ANSWER: Tanzania remains to be a beautiful, oil and gas investment destination to foreign companies and up to date, there is a good number of big oil and gas companies operating in Tanzania, namely; Shell, Equinor and others. In the next 10 years, Tanzania will be one among important power hubs in the Eastern part of Africa and beyond. Constant supply of natural gas will ensure abundant electric power generation hence stimulating industrial development as a pre-requisite factor that will enable the country to become a semi-industrial economy by 2025. Also, the completion of the LNG project will accommodate foreign markets that will benefit the country from forex.
TPDC operates on the principle of excellence, duty to the nation, respect to the community and the environment. We constantly strive to attain and retain the highest ethical standards in the way we conduct our operations. Achieving this begins with compliance with the laws and regulations that govern the industry in the country and internationally. TPDC plays an instrumental role in the energy mix in line with the countries vision for industrialization, a position we constantly strive to maintain. I firmly believe in my team and their commitment to deliver on their obligations, at TPDC team success precedes Individual success. The world is changing fast and TPDC has committed to changing with it.

EWURA ON RIGHT TRACK TOWARDS TANZANIA’S VISION 2025 “Regulated Services for Positive Impact” The Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA) is an autonomous multisectoral regulatory authority established by the EWURA Act Cap 414 of the laws of Tanzania. EWURA is a technically and economically multi-sectoral regulatory institution, tasked to regulate the energy sub-sector, (electricity, petroleum and natural gas) and water. In electricity sub-sector, EWURA regulates numerous private as well as public enterprises engaged in generation, transmission and distribution of electricity while in the petroleum sub-sector, EWURA regulates thousands of petroleum related companies,
many of which are private sector owned. In the Natural Gas sub-sector, there are a few big, state and private owned companies. The functions of EWURA include among others, licensing, tariff review, monitoring performance and standards with regards to quality, safety, health and environment.
Duties In carrying out its functions, EWURA shall strive to enhance the welfare of Tanzanian society by: • promoting effective competition and economic efficiency;
• protecting the interests of consumers; • protecting the financial viability of efficient suppliers; • promoting the availability of regulated services to all consumers including low income, rural and disadvantaged consumers; • taking into account the need to protect and preserve the environment; • enhancing public knowledge, awareness and understanding of the regulated sectors.
Historical Background: EWURA’s establishment was a result of the big problems of water shortage against the big demand for domestic, industrial and other water consumption. This situation necessitated the Government to address the challenge in order to improve the water supply. The Government took several initiatives to achieve the mission. Among the measures taken, was to increase the development budget for the water sector and to establish and strengthen regulatory authorities on clean, safe water supply and sanitation services. As a result, in the year 2006 EWURA was established in order to ensure that water and sanitation related services were provided on a sustainable basis and to the highest possible standards of quality. This went in line with the establishment of regulatory authorities in other sectors.

Vision: To be a world–class regulator of energy and water services
70
20 20
Mission: To regulate energy and water utilities in a transparent and efficient manner that ensures their quality, availability and affordability
However, due to rapid urbanization and the growing population, water supply, especially portable water was still inadequate. Therefore, EWURA was established purposely to be responsible for technical and economic regulation of the electricity, petroleum, natural gas and water sectors in Tanzania. EWURA carries out its responsibilities with high integrity - especially taking into account the fact that the Authority is also tasked with regulating and overseeing several other utilities and related entities in the country. This means, the nation’s daily life depends upon the Authority’s performance in the crucial water and energy sectors, including electricity, fossil fuels and natural gas.
Functions of EWURA:
EWURA’s functions include but are not limited to: • Licensing of operators under its jurisdiction • Tariff setting and receiving from time to time • Monitoring the performance and standards of quality and safety by all those operating EWURA controlled activities • Monitoring the quality standards of kerosene, diesel and petrol as specified by the Tanzania Bureau of Standards (TBS). This is to satisfy the laid down statutory requirements relating to healthy living, healthy trading, healthy business competition, environmental conservation and much more EWURA also has the duty of ensuring effective competition and economic efficiency; protecting the interests of consumers, and always ensuring the availability of the products and services it regulates to all consumers at all the times.
CHALLENGES: The Evaluation report of the Performance of Water and Sanitation Authorities during the FY 2014/15 revealed inadequacy of the supply of clean, safe water and sanitation services. The report further revealed that the supply was averaged at 72% in regions while those in districts and townships averaged at 59%. Water Authorities were also facing various challenges including water bills that were not being paid by customers in full and on time, or not paid at all. By then, the unpaid water bills rate was 43.1% of all water supplied. As a result, water supply authorities’ debt ratio to budget was unfavourable that made it very hard for the water authorities to implement their development programmes, hence persistence of poor water supply and sanitation services. Likewise, much of the water produced at great cost were lost through leakages on account of dilapidated water pipes, while consumers of dubious probity make illegal connections to supply systems, tamper with and otherwise bypass water meters to evade paying bills. Those are some of the challenges which were faced by the water authorities in Tanzania a few years back. However, figures for the evaluation report for three consecutive years 2015/2016 to 2018/ 2019 respectively have proved remarkable development based on KPIs set by the institution. Regulation by EWURA is done in order to ensure the quality of utility products is high enough for the safety of consumers and their property like motor vehicles and other machinery in the case of petroleum products.
EWURA’S INTERVENTIONS TO OVERCOME CHALLENGES: Despite the challenges that were befalling the Institution, EWURA has been able to have constructive strategies of countering those challenges so that Tanzanians would enjoy reliable water supply services as a matter of course.

As part of its objectives to streamline water supply and sanitation services as the consequence of the unsatisfactory performance by some water authorities across the country, that were compounded by failure to implement planned projects and attain the set performance goals, in 2017 EWURA took several measures such as, training of Water Authorities workers for capacity building in regions of Morogoro, Iringa, Arusha and Mwanza Administrative regions. Also, huge shortcomings of the Authorities in attaining the goals of the business plans made by EWURA to provide training for 24 water authorities after not being satisfied with their performance on the whole (Referring the Inspection conducted in 2015/16) The training was practical and theoretical based on the 2016 Guidelines on initiating a Business Plan with objectives to increasing efficiency in daily work performance by the water authorities, including observing quality standards and fulfilling the needs of the national regulator (EWURA) As a result of the training, Authorities improved and were able to provide quality water supply services to consumers and to a great extent and attain quality standards.
72
20 20
Section 6 (e) of EWURA Act stipulates that the Authority shall strive to enhance the welfare of Tanzanian society by enhancing public
knowledge, awareness and understanding of regulated sectors including; the rights and obligations of consumers and regulated suppliers; the way in which complaints and disputes may be initiated and resolved and the duties, functions and activities of the Authority.
SERVICE IMPROVEMENT TREND: Evaluation reports of 2015/2016, 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 respectively reveals that EWURA tirelessly continued to build capacity of these utilities to ensure that they deliver services to the acceptable standards. EWURA has continued to oversee and regulate the activities of the Regional and National Project water utilities. Following many approaches and interventions made by the Authority, it has been evident that most utilities have continued to register remarkable improvements in provision of water supply and sanitation services. In general, the performance for water utilities Authorities has improved in different aspects, such as the improvement of water production and quality, increase of water distribution network, the increase of time for service delivery, correlation of the ratio for staff and customers as well as improvement in revenue collection and the decrease for the non-revenue water.
GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENT INDICATORS: A summary of performance of Regional WSSAs during FY 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18 shows that in totality, there has been improvements in water production and installed water production capacity; an increase in water demand equivalent to an increase by 17%, 24% and 5% for water production, installed capacity and water demand respectively. Below are a few references:-
Water Production, Installed Capacity and Water Demand
Over the three years, the water production, installed capacity and the water demand increased by 24%, 14% and 4% respectively. However, despite the available capacity and increase in water production, still the water produced did not meet the required water demand.
“As a result of EWURA’s sterling performance, Tanzania is assured of product safety and availability for the benefit of the country, its people and other stakeholders: …DG”
Non-Revenue Water (NRW)
The overall Non-Revenue Water has shown an uneven trend over the past three years. Despite a slight improvement by 1.1% in FY 2017/18 as compared to FY 2015/16 yet the achievement is not within the service level benchmark of below 20%.
Water Quality Compliance
Generally, for the past three years, Regional WSSAs have shown continuous improvement on water quality compliance. The overall percentage compliance increased by 14% for E-Coli, 8% for turbidity, 5% for residual chlorine and 7% for pH as from FY 2015/16 to FY 2017/18.
Wastewater Quality Compliance
The Regional WSSAs with wastewater treatment facilities have shown continuous improvement on effluent quality compliance. Despite uneven trend on effluent BOD values, yet an overall effluent quality compliance increased by 9% for BOD and 11% for COD values as from FY 2015/16 to FY 2017/18.
Water Service Connections
The number of water service connections increased by 36% from FY 2015/16 to FY 2017/18.
Metering
Similar to FY 2016/17, the customer metering ratio has remained at 97% in FY 2017/18 a 2% drop as compared to the achievement made in FY 2015/16. Generally, the performance on the indicator is good.
Sewerage Service Connections
Sewage disposal services through sewerage network are provided by 11 WSSAs among 26 Regional WSSAs. The total number of sewerage connections increased by 5% from FY 2015/16 to FY 2017/18. However, from FY 2015/16 to FY 2016/17 there was a drop in number of sewerage connections due to data clean up in various WSSAs database after customer verification survey.
Water Service Coverage
Over the past three years, the population living in the area with water network has continued to increase. In addition, service coverage in terms of population directly served with water has been improving over the three years.

Average Water Tariff
There has been a continuous annual increase in overall average tariffs for Regional WSSAs. Average water tariff increased by 14% from TZS 975.5/m3 in FY 2015/16 to TZS 1,113.7/m3 in FY 2017/18.
Installed Water Production Capacity
There has been a continuous investment in terms of increasing the installed water production capacity. The installed production capacity increased from 381.36 million m3 in FY 2015/16 to 434.73 million m3 in FY 2017/18
Performance Highlights of Districts and Towns WSSAs: Likewise, there has been substantial development of performance of Districts and Towns WSSAs during 2015/16 to 2017/18, if compared to what it used to be in the past. A few references reveals:-
i.
Water Abstraction
ii.
Water Production
There has been a continuous increase of Water abstraction over the past three years. Water abstraction has increased from 32.8 million m3 in FY 2015/16 to 34.4 million m3 in FY 2017/18. Generally, the main factors that contributed to the increase in water abstraction is addition of new water sources.
Total water production in DT WSSAs increased from 31.8 million m3 in FY 2015/16 to 33.8 million m3 in the FY 2016/17 and thereafter slightly decreased to 33.7 million m3 in FY 2017/18. The decrease for FY 2017/18 in water production was due to shift of Vwawa and Mlowo WSSAs from DT report after they have been clustered and upgraded as regional WSSA.
iii. Hours of Service
Over the past three years, there has been a continuous increase of average hours of service from 9 hours per day in FY 2015/16 to 11 hours per day in FY 2017/18. However, hours of service are still far below the service level benchmark of 24 hours per day.
iv. Metering Ratio (%)
There has been a continuous improvement in metering ratio over the past three years. Average metering ratio for DT WSSAs increased from 66% in FY 2015/16 to 79% in FY 2017/18. However, metering ratio is still low as compared to the service level benchmark, which requires water utilities to meter all their customers.

Staff Productivity
Over the past three years, staff productivity expressed in terms of staff per 1000 connections has improved from 25 in FY 2015/16 to 16 in FY 2017/18.
vi. Non-Revenue Water (%)
The NRW for DT WSSAs has decreased from 41% in FY 2015/16 to 36% in FY 2017/18. However, DT WSSAs have not managed to attain a service level benchmark of NRW of less than 20%. The high level of non-revenue water is accelerated by the existence of high number of unmetered connections and dilapidated water infrastructure.
vii. Revenue Collection and Expenditure
Total revenue collection for DT WSSAs increased by 12% from FY 2016/17 to FY 2017/18 compared with 29% increase in FY2015/16 to FY 2017/18. Operation and maintenance expenses for DT WSSAs increased annually by 11% from FY 2015/16 to FY 2017/18 compared to increase of 4% FY 2015/16 to FY 2016/17… just to mention, but a few!
EWURA ON CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT: THE INTRODUCTION OF EWURA AWARDS
74
20 20
As the result of the training, performance by most of the water authorities improved, their executives carried out their tasks in a more
responsible manner to ensure that consumer hitches were either minimized or completely wiped out. Example: it was quite normal to find leaking water pipes in some parts of Dar es Salaam. Nowadays, however, nearly every leak incident is reported as soon as possible and Technicians from DAWASA fix the problem. Improvement in general performance have been catalyzed by EWURA’s decision to award special prizes to water Authorities which smartly rise to the occasion and compete to effectively perform in providing quality water supplies and the related services. The Tanga Urban Water and sewerage Authority was the first Water Authority in Tanzania to meet the conditions of being granted EWURA’s License (First Class) as it was the first authority to have fully met EWURA’s set criteria that required the Water Authority to have the ability of being independent in terms of both technicalities and operations and mostly, being able to financing the Water Authority’s operations, addressing dilapidated water supply infrastructure and paying investment interest loans in full and on time.
CRITERIA FOR WINNING EWURA AWARD: EWURA awards are given on the basis of Special criteria set by EWURA itself, as well as on the efforts of the relevant Water Authorities themselves such as:
Increase in arbitrary selling of petrol and other fossil oil products in major towns and cities, as well as in some remote parts of Tanzania deprives the government of its fair share of taxes and other revenues which would otherwise be paid by the shady, unscrupulous businesspeople. Such malpractices include selling using unlawful points of sale (PoS); selling the highly – inflammable liquids in plastic and similar household containers, selling fuel stolen from oil transport tankers and suchlike. It’s obvious that, without an official regulator there would be total chaos in the utilities business across the land. Based on the mandatory obligations of the Authority, regulation is good for public revenues in the form of taxes and other levies imposed upon fuel dealers at specified fuel pump service station. If uncontrolled sale of, say, petroleum is allowed to flourish in the country without full EWURA control, this would endanger not only the safety and welfare of the nation and its people, it would also adversely impact the petroleum business and government revenues even as it plays merry hell with fair competition across the board.
“The authority has sounded a strong warning to Tanzanians in general regarding the dangers of indulging in illegal activities that jeopardize people’s safety and property, as well as the environment in case of fire, spillage etc.
EWURA’s ROLE IN THE PETROLEUM BUSINESS: Currently, Tanzania does not have a petroleum refinery. As a result, all petroleum products used in the country have to be imported by legal entities licensed to import the products in bulk. Hence the Petroleum Bulk Procurement Agency (PBPA), which is bestowed by statute and other protocols with the authority to carry out importations. In that regard, EWURA insists on players in the sub-sector following basic rules and regulations for safety in order to avoid dangers and harm that can happen during receiving, storage, transportation and use of petroleum products.
“If uncontrolled sale of, say, petroleum is allowed to flourish in the country without full EWURA control, this would endanger not only the safety and welfare of the nation and its people, but, would also adversely impact the petroleum business and government revenues” PETROLEUM REGULATIONS: Regulations are fundamentals for the Authority in every aspect of carrying out its operations as follows:• The 2014 Regulations aim at making sure that the Petroleum Bulk Procurement Agency and any other wholesalers, for that matter, do have the requisite license issued by EWURA. • To ensure that wholesalers of petroleum products judiciously follow the laid down procedures of selling petroleum only to pump service station operators and consumer installations with valid petroleum product licenses. • EWURA to ensure that it enhances the safety and health of people and their properties, general social and economic welfare, as well as the environment at large. • To ensure that good quality petroleum products are available to consumers at all times and at legitimate prices.

THE AUTHORITY’S FOCUS ON THE INDUSTRIALIZATION AGENDA The regulatory decisions made by the Authority continued to support the Government’s efforts to eradicate poverty and strive to attract investments in the regulated sectors and enhance the socio-economic welfare of the Tanzanian society through delivery of quality services.
Going forward the Authority will strive to:
Be the best regulator for facilitating investments in the regulated sectors by creating an enabling environment to all investors, Promote investment in the energy and water sectors through development of investor friendly regulatory tools, Ensure that there is the highest level of compliance by all regulated operators and Computerizing various processes in order to expedite issuance of licenses, tariff reviews and revenue collections. Others are to continue with the capacity building activities for the Authority’s staff in technical, managerial as well as regulatory skills, in order to execute regulatory duties effectively and efficiently, develop more regulatory tools as and when required in order for consumers and regulated suppliers to comply with issues of standards on the one hand and enhancing transparency and predictability to all stakeholders on the other hand, continue improving service delivery to the public by implementing the EWURA Client Service Charter, quality standards under ISO certification and the Open Performance Review and Appraisal System (OPRAS) and continue enhancing public knowledge, awareness and understanding of regulatory functions in the regulated sectors for the benefit of consumers, regulated operators, Government officials and the public at large. The Authority will also intensify inspections in order to improve the quality of the infrastructure, products and services in the regulated sectors and expanding EWURA operations by establishing and strengthening zonal offices.
“Unlawful activities also have an adverse impact on good practices, including ‘killing effective business competition and economic efficiency. This denies honest–to–goodness business operators the opportunity for fair returns on their investments in the petroleum business at all levels”

COCA-COLA BEVERAGES AFRICA TANZANIA CSR INITIATIVES ENVIRONMENT AND RECYCLING INITIATIVE Coca-Cola Kwanza Ltd Initiate Project known as Mchanga Pekee which aims to encourage beach cleanliness, raise plastic waste awareness, encourage people to protect the environment, encourage people to collect and dispose of plastic waste appropriately, mobilize the private sector behind plastic waste management, support the government in its drive for a cleaner environment, and promoting beach tourism. This campaign has managed to recruit four young, dynamic women in Coco Beach, tasked with cleaning of the beach five times per week, eight hours per day from February 2019 to February 2020, and the campaign has placed ten (10) waste bins on various areas of the beach (Coco Beach) to encourage this.
MCHANGA PEKEE It is a twelve (12) months campaign designed, founded and organized by CocaCola Kwanza Company, a subsidiary of Coca-Cola Beverages Africa. The campaign inception goes back to February 2019 focused on educating, training, engaging and influencing on plastic waste disposal within our communities through coastal (Beach) clean-up, Post consumer PET collection, recycling and plastic bottle disposal best practices in Tanzania. Beach clean-ups are done by engaging respective communities through imparting knowledge, which keeps them in a safe, sustainable and desirable habitat in an effort to free coastal sand from unnecessary plastic waste. In addition, plastic bottle collection is key to our environmental safety and significantly preserves ecology of pre-existing environments.
84
20 20
The Mchanga Pekee Campaign is categorized into two main activities, both reflecting a common goal of educating communities through engaging in preservation and conservation of the environment. The main tasks of the campaign are Beach clean-up and Postconsumer PET collection (purchase) for recycling purposes (Trash for Cash). Not to mention, the campaign is also built to enable, encourage and monitor Beach (coastal) clean-ups across the country aligned with Post consumer PET disposal best practices. It is also a platform to increase mass awareness over environment over conservation’s best practices particularly regarding plastic wastes and is a reminder to our community towards the importance of environmental conservation.
Among many other objectives, the campaign is set to bring together key players of the industry sectors and plastic bottle manufacturers to engage in environment conservation.
BEACH CLEAN-UP The campaign sees Coco beach cleaned up every Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. For this task, these four dynamic women have been given employment contracts, necessary tools, and environmental education. It’s through this campaign Coca-Cola Kwanza Company has managed to place almost 10 waste containers in different places across Coco Beach with each container carrying a crucial message to remind every citizen to properly dispose of their waste through it. This activity is valid and successful resulting from prior memorandum of understanding between, Coca-Cola Kwanza Company (through Mchanga Pekee Campaign) with Government (through Kinondoni Municipal Council) pertaining to coastal clean-ups, taking Coco Beach as a pilot case. Through the coastal cleaners team working, Mchanga Mpekee Campaign has identified, through cleanup, the high number of plastic bottle pieces out of this disposed waste, others being safety pins, syringes, food
wrappers, straws, plastic closures, plastic carrier bags as well as food crumbs.
POSITIVE IMPACTS OF MCHANGA PEKEE CAMPAIGN
MUHIMBILI NATIONAL HOSPITAL Coca-Cola Kwanza Ltd supported construction of a patients waiting area at Muhimbili National Hospital as part of join hands with government on Health Sector.
It is an undeniable truth that the Mchanga Pekee Campaign has managed to reach the majority of people in the community, manifesting its primary objective of educating the community on coastal clean-ups. On a weekend, Coco Beach receives an average of 300 to 500 people at different times and whoever walks in, is certain to meet our cleaners at work to clean every single portion. Along the way, visitors would face diverse calls and messages written on every single waste container reminding beach users to conserve the environment for his/her future and generations at large. Currently, over 5,000 people have read such displayed messages and managed to use special waste containers to dispose of waste after consumption. Through our beach cleaner’s taskforce, an estimate of 150 Post consumer PET; over 250 plastic closures and large amounts of marine debris which moved onshore by powerful oceanic waves, were also collected. A stockpile of collected debris by the Mchanga Pekee taskforce is reserved in a safe waiting place for Kinondoni Municipal Council dumpsters to collect them. Collected Post consumer PET are transported directly to plastic bottle recyclers (EcoAct) for the manufacture of plastic timber. This campaign and activity going on at Coco Beach has beautified the area and given it a new look, attracting many tourists compared to the past. The visitors have attributed Mchanga Pekee Campaign, as innovative, founded and organized by Coca-Cola Kwanza Company, as an initiative which has made great changes in Coco Beach.
MWANAMKE SHUJAA The Coca-Cola Kwanza Ltd campaign intends to recognize women’s efforts from various sectors in the community and remind them of self-confidence, self-esteem and self-reliance in achieving their goals. The campaign runs panel discussions on various ways of inspiring, networking and building confidence in women every three months. The campaign, which translates to “A brave Woman”, aims to change the concept of achieving gender equality for sustainable development. It also aims to underline Coca-Cola Kwanza’s commitment towards women Empowerment.
As of now, Mchanga Pekee taskforce has collected over 10,500 Post consumer PET waste around Coco Beach and have all been dispatched to the recycling companies to make plastic goods. Among other factors, the taskforce is also obligated to educate the beach goers about environment conservation taking into consideration recent coastal conservations context.

So far the campaign has been successful in various places in Dar es Salaam including Mbagala (Temeke District), Manzese (Ubungo District), Tandale (Kinondoni District), Mwanyamala-CCM Mwinjuma
(Kinondoni District), and Buguruni chama (Ilala District) where in each area this campaign has been able successfully to provide environmental education to approximately 5,000 residents. On the other hand, until now more than 70,000 Post consumer PET have been Collected (purchased), of which it’s above the half target of collecting 120,000 of Postconsumer PET at the end of the campaign in early February 2020. The price used for the purchase of bottles in this campaign is four times that of market
price. Other dealers buy used plastic bottles based on their weight, where 1kg of used plastic bottle price is approximately between TShs.200 and TShs.250. A kilo of used plastic bottles contains between 25 and 30 pieces, which, if sold by piece through our campaign, one would earn between TShs.1,000 and TShs.1,500. The purpose of our campaign is not meant to destroy the market, but rather to bring environmental awareness and the importance of plastic bottles disposal to our homes, which are the source of drainage
blockage and later forcing its movement through the rivers, and to finally ending at sea. This campaign has the potential to economically empower citizens as the community with a very strong response has always received it. Many people come with used plastic bottles they want to dispose of, giving strong interpretation to taskforce that much needs to be done to address the situation.

My advice to all Tanzanians that they should understand we are using the most advanced technology. We are planning to increase production and employment from the current 200 jobs to 600 jobs.

KAPUNGA RICE PROJECT LTD. A model farming initiative, turning smallholder farmers into commercially-oriented, credible & autonomous business partners, resulting in some of the highest yields of paddy in this region.
• 3,500 hectares of land • 6 month farming season • 250 smallholders • 6.8 metric tonnes produced on average per hectare • 5,000 labourers hired on average every season
Kapunga Rice Project Ltd. (KRPL) works with hundreds of smallholder farmers in Mbeya Region, Tanzania, to integrate them into resilient agribusiness value chains by providing them with opportunities to become successful entrepreneurs. Through an out-grower scheme, local farmers are involved in the production of rice; a high value commodity. In return for a participation fee and a percentage of their harvest, KRPL supports the farmers with fully irrigated plots, high-yield, government certified seeds, provision of all fertilizers and herbicides, mechanized harvesting services and transportation to the mill. Round-the-clock support is also proffered by KRPL staff, including overseeing crop cycle schedules, managing inflow and out-flow of water, ensuring security and conducting regular trainings. The result of this project over the last five years has been greatly enhanced yields, leading to unprecedented income growth, asset ownership and wealth creation.
REASONS BEHIND SMALLHOLDER SUCCESS Top management practices KRPL’s success is hinged on the managerial efficiency and effectiveness with which the farm is operated. A dedicated team of specialized field staff are involved in the daily running of the farm, and build mutually respectful and inclusive relationships
108
with the smallholder farmers. Regular technical assistance and training in agronomic techniques, meticulous scheduling, and the provision of high quality technological and other inputs are some of the reasons for the smooth functioning of the farm, and the resultant bumper crops every season.
Institutional infrastructure KRPL is a project belonging to Export Trading Group (ETG), one of Africa’s biggest agricultural conglomerates. This linkage has made it possible to provide a host of services and inputs to farmers that facilitate value chain access. Besides having decades of experience, ETG has an unparalleled understanding of the region’s agribusiness landscape, and an exceptionally large global network. It also provides farmers with the best seeds, latest technologies and an assured market.
Financial linkages KRPL has facilitated farmer access to financial services with CRDB Bank, Mbarali branch, leveraging itself as a secure and trustworthy affiliate. With a 100% return rate, KRPL farmers have, over the years, become reliable clients. They are now able to access short-term agricultural credit at the beginning of the crop cycle, which they then repay after the harvest. They have bank accounts and attend regular capacity building workshops in financial matters such as savings and investment; thereby becoming empowered entrepreneurs with improved financial knowledge and stability.

A MICROCOSM OF DEVELOPMENT KRPL hasn’t grown in isolation. Over the last few years, it has been able to consolidate its connection with the communities around it. The farm has taken measures to ensure the holistic development of the villages that are located on its peripheries. It shares its water resources with smallholder farmers who are not part of the out-growers scheme. A primary school that currently has 322 students was constructed in Kapunga, and a hospital that will service more than 10,000 people begun operations in 2019. The impact of KRPL’s initiatives have caused ripple effects in the development of Kapunga village, which, because of possibilities of local employment, has burgeoned into a small township bustling with business opportunities and rich with promise. Mills and storage granaries are being built; guesthouses, restaurants and recreational spaces are around every corner; the markets and shops are now selling diversified goods; and everywhere there are new houses being built – proper constructions replacing tin shacks with metal roofs.
CHAIRMAN MAHESH PATEL SPEAKS ABOUT KAPUNGA “Kapunga is an example of how these kinds of projects can change lives. But it has taken us 12 years to get here. In Africa, one needs patience to see success – real change won’t happen overnight. It has its own rhythms, and we need to take a step back instead of trying to run forward. Direct ownership of the project is mandatory, rather than delegating to several levels of middle management. We need the larger community of donors, the private sector and the government to pay attention, incentivize the agricultural sector, and create the right kinds of conditions for smallholder farmers to thrive. Because as farmers grow, we grow.” Mahesh Patel, Chairman of Export Trading Group

ETG INPUTS
BOOSTING INPUT ACCESS FOR FARMERS ACROSS TANZANIA ETG Inputs are the largest importer of fertilizer in Tanzania, claiming about 35% of the total import quantity. In 2018, ETG Inputs imported 170,000 MT of fertilizer, consisting of 60% nitrogenous fertilizer, 25% phosphatic fertilizer and the remaining compounded or blended fertilizer. Procurement is largely driven by quality, availability, planting seasons and price.
With over 100 full-time employees working in different regions, ETG Inputs boasts the biggest distributor network in Tanzania and has depots and container shops located in almost all regions. The bulk of its fertilizers are distributed directly to farmers, while a significant percentage is supplied to agro-dealers, wholesalers, cooperatives and NGOs. Its mission is to ensure a seamless service in the sourcing and distribution of fertilizers to farmers in remote, rural areas. The mission and vision of the company is to serve farmers in Tanzania with correct farm inputs and assurance of availability of the products at farm gate level during farming season; at affordable prices.
BAGGING UNITS ETG Inputs has a world-class bagging unit in Mbagala that packages bulk cargo into smaller size quantities – 50kg, 25kg, 10kg, and 5kg. The bagging plant has six automated high-speed machines and is able to bag 3,500 metric tonnes per day which conveniently meets in-house packaging requirements of bulk cargo and provides bagging services to other fertilizer companies in the country. Additionally, the unit has a storage facility of 65,000 metric tonnes. Stringent quality measures have been taken with the oversight of the local regulatory authority to ensure that labelling on fertilizer bags is done correctly and accurately represents the content within.
BRINGING FERTILIZER TO FARMERS’ DOORSTEPS ETG Inputs conducts regular seminars for agro-dealers and makes frequent visits to collect orders and introduce new products directly. Extensive agronomic and marketing support is offered to agro-dealers in order to educate farmers about input usage, with regards to quantity, frequency and application techniques. Close supervision of existing container shops, as well as strategic searches for new locations to place container shops is an ongoing activity of ETG Inputs salesmen and supervisors. Mobile van sales are also frequently held in villages to bring quicker and easier access to farmers in more isolated areas. Through agro-dealers, farmers are registered to a customised mobile application, enabling easier marketing, and the collecting of valuable data sets.
SPREADING KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS ETG Inputs is dedicated to improving farmer know-how in order to increase their yields and minimize damage to crops. Leveraging their robust relationship with AMCOS, they organise capacity building sessions for farmers and maintain demonstration plots in order to showcase best practices for seeds, agrochemicals and fertilizers. ETG Inputs is directly involved in maize seed multiplication. Product trials are carried out on a regular basis, and field trips for farmers are organised to the demonstration plots. Farmers are trained in preparation of sprays and plant nutrition programs for various crops. Individual visits are also made on a pro-bono basis to commercial farmers and estates for technical consultation and business negotiations.

KOROSHO AFRICA LTD. BY EXPORT TRADING GROUP
ETG has been an integral part of Tanzania’s cashew story for the last 20 years. We have made significant investments in state-of-the-art processing facilities, warehouses, and logistics to facilitate a thriving cashew trade. Currently, ETG handles about 12% of the world’s tradeable raw cashew and processes about 9-11% of its cashew nuts under the brand KOROSHO in its own processing facilities in Tanzania and Mozambique. Our plants, with the capacity to process 25,000 metric tonnes per year, have attained standards of excellence and been recognized through international certifications. More than 5,000 people are directly and indirectly employed by ETG in various functions related to the cashew value chain in Tanzania, creating employment in rural and remote areas in the districts of Newala, Mtwara and Tunduru.
LEVERAGING THE UNIQUE POSITION OF TANZANIAN CASHEW TODAY We are all aware of the unique position of Tanzania today in the global cashew economy. We have witnessed dramatic leaps in local cashew production each year – a radical 450% in the last 15 years. It is currently the world’s third largest producer of raw cashew nuts, with an estimated harvest of over 300,000 metric tonnes by the end of the 2019 season. Tanzanian cashew is an increasingly treasured commodity the world over for its premium size, colour and taste, and is regarded as one of the best quality origins in the world. Furthermore, it has the competitive advantage of having its harvests in the off-seasons of the other cashew producing giants, India and West Africa, therefore garnering higher market rates. Incidentally, the Portuguese word for cashew, acaju, derives from a Tupian word that literally translates to the “nut that produces itself.” This nut that produces itself has quietly taken centre stage as one of Tanzania’s top export crops, and seamlessly given birth to a burgeoning industry ripe with the promise of prosperity and a large-scale socio-economic footprint. It is no strange coincidence that the first syllable of CASHEW is, well, CASH!

BRINGING OUT THE SHE IN CASHEW It is a remarkable fact that 95% of our workforce are women, who have proven themselves to be skilled, reliable and efficient employees. These women, from extremely disadvantaged backgrounds,
enjoy
benefits
associated
with
formal,
contractual employment in the labour market; including free meals, health insurance, contributions to social security, maternity leave and the ability to save for the future. It has been proved that when more women work, economies grow because productivity is boosted. It has also been proved that women’s economic equality is good for business, resulting in enhanced organizational effectiveness and growth. It is a curious coincidence that the word CASHEW also contains the word SHE in its middle. Indeed, this nut has provided so many dedicated and underserved women a transformative opportunity to lift themselves and their families out of poverty. In the regions where we work, there is no other single bigger employer of women to the workforce.
THE KESHO OF CASHEW ETG views cashew as not just a commodity, but as a symbol for broader and more equitable economic growth, leading to the development of rural economies and a rising middle class. Cashew is a means of alleviating poverty, especially for the families of hundreds of thousands of smallholder farmers from whom it is sourced. It also holds the potential to slow down ruralurban migration through increased employment opportunities, particularly for strong and able youth, who can participate in rehabilitating abandoned cashew farms and initiating new cashew plantations. The word CASHEW sounds like KESHO, the Kiswahili word for tomorrow. We have no doubt that cashew is the crop of the future for Tanzania and other African countries. It has already taken centre stage and has proved itself to be a big earner, but also a provider of financial inclusivity, gender equality and a better tomorrow for thousands of people.

REUSE. REDUCE. RECYCLE Paper is so ingrained in our lives that it doesn’t often cross our minds what happens to it when it is discarded. Thousands of tons of good quality recyclable paper go into landfills, causing a rise in greenhouse gases as the paper degrades with other waste, or incinerated, causing a massive amount of air pollution. Chandaria Industries and Tanpack Tissues are at the forefront of championing the REUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE policy, by ensuring that our products are made with recycled paper waste, having jointly saved over 22 million trees over the last 31 years. Our paper recycling operations provide employment to over 20,000 Kenyan and Tanzanian families.
OUR SOCIAL INVESTMENTS Given the economic, social and environmental crisis that we humans and our communities are confronting, it becomes invariably important for the individuals and organizations to adopt the culture of giving. Corporate Social Responsibility allows organizations and its employees to do their bit for society, the environment, customers or for that matter stake holders.

LODHIA GROUP OF COMPANIES
PROGRESS THROUGH EXCELLENCE... Lodhia Group began trading in 1996 as Steel Centre. In truth, however, the Group’s origins can be traced back far earlier. Since the opening of the group’s first steel rolling mill in 2003, Lodhia Group has provided hundreds of jobs with levels of security and benefits unprecedented in the region. A wide range of CSR initiatives are also undertaken, many of which go unreported. In short the growth of the Lodhia Group has directly correlated with an increase in the quality of life in the surrounding community.

TANZANIA BRUSH PRODUCTS LTD (TBP) Over five (5) decades of successful brush manufacturing hasn’t been easy. Innovation and sustainability have been the major focus of TBP. We at TBP promise to serve the nation with quality products at an affordable price. We believe a healthy and clean environment is every Tanzanian’s right and it shouldn’t be costly. Over the past few years TBP has achieved several recognitions for its quality products, service and progress. In 2005, TBP won the first CTI PRESIDENTIAL MANUFACTURER OF THE YEAR AWARD (overall winner), whilst in 2007, 2008 and 2009 TBP excelled to win runners-up in the metal and nonmetal products category in Medium scale industry. We have qualified as one of the top 100 mid-sized companies every year of our participation, most recently being 2018-2019. In 2018, TBP celebrated fifty (50) years of SUCCESSFUL BRUSH’INEERING and as a norm TBP has launched new range of products of international standards maintaining this quality. The new products are manufactured by our latest edition current generation CNC Brush manufacturing plant, producing the finest brooms and brushes to withstand substantial usage. TBP does not only believe in vertical growth but also lateral growth in the business model, increasing product line has also created employment.
TBP does not differentiate in the skill levels and provides inhouse training to those who have no experience from machine operators to store keepers. This creates opportunity for the masses and low-income earners. TBP also has a fair share of female workers as well as unfortunate disabled persons in all areas of production; thus not believing in gender inequality and providing opportunity for every Tanzanian. We also avail opportunity to our staff for training at different venues to enhance their skills in their field of work such as accounts, administration and technical areas precisely. The majority of our production machines are current generation high performance CNC operated from world renowned machine suppliers; mainly from Germany since our commencement in 1968. TBP has spread its wings all over Tanzania reaching up to Zambia, Malawi, DTC, Comoros and all over Tanzania up to Kigoma, Mtwara and Bukoba providing them the means to purchase goods directly from TPB. We believe we shall be able to cross other borders one day and fly over other countries in Africa.

Although TBP manufactures from plastic; we do not fail to care for the environment as majority of our products (brush heads) are made from recycled materials.

STANDARD
CHARTERED BANK
Sanjay Rughani, CEO of Standard Chartered Bank - Tanzania
HISTORY OF STANDARD CHARTERED BANK IN TANZANIA Standard Chartered Bank Tanzania Limited first opened its doors to the public in Tanzania in 1917 and, following a period of nationalisation, re-opened again in 1993 as the first foreign bank to obtain a license under the economic reform programme. For over 100 years the Bank has been recognised as a trailblazer for its ability to be a “first� in Tanzania. In 1997 it offered the first ATM services. In 2000 the Bank was the first to introduce Web Banking Services. In 2004 the Bank was the first to bring the Visa Electron Debit Card. In 2019, the Bank continued in this tradition by being the first to introduce a Full Digital Bank on Mobile to the Tanzanian market (read more about it in this publication).

Recently the Bank’s staff committed to “Drive Commerce and Prosperity Through Our Unique Diversity”. Indeed, this purpose statement speaks volumes of the Bank’s continued support of the people and the economy of Tanzania. With this mindset in place, the Bank is well aligned with the Government’s industrialization drive which is on the back of the Second Five Year Development Plan (FYDP II) to achieve middle income status by 2025.
steel products, food and beverage, cigarettes, cement and construction materials.”
“We are thrilled to have an opportunity to feature in CTI’s Tanzania Industries Gateway publication.” Standard Chartered Bank CEO, Mr. Sanjay Rughani commented. “CTI has been a champion for Tanzania’s manufacturing industry; giving voice to over 400 members for over 30 years. Indeed, manufacturing is one of the fastest growing sectors in the country having grown from 5.5% to 7.7% of GDP on the back of textiles,
Over the past decade, the bank has been recognised by various local and international bodies for its contribution to industry and society. Recognition comes from global organisations like Euromoney and Banker Magazine, to local institutions like the Association of Tanzania Employers (ATE) and the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange.
“We at Standard Chartered are proud of the fact that we bank and support at least two of the top five businesses in each of these industries. It is a privilege for us to do our part in contributing to the country’s drive towards industrialization”, Mr. Rughani further commented.

Most recently, the Bank has been recognised as The Best Digital Bank in Tanzania by both Global Finance and Global Business Outlook; which also recognised the Bank as the Best Corporate Bank. Mr. Sanjay Rughani himself has also been recognised as Best Leader (Banking 2019) by Global Brand Awards. These recognitions exemplify the bank’s continued commitment to drive the best in people, business, the environment and the economy. As the Bank reflects at over 100 years’ presence in Tanzania, it looks forward to another 100 years of firsts, continued business and economic support on its journey to live up to its brand promise of being “Here for Good”. The Bank has two branches in Dar es Salaam; one in Mwanza and one in Arusha. The Head Office is located at International House Property, at the corner of Shaaban Robert / Garden Avenue, Dar es Salaam.

DIGITAL BANKING In February of 2019, the Bank revolutionized and forever changed the way traditional banking would be done in Tanzania. By launching the first ever Full Digital Bank on Mobile, the Bank took on the reins of trailblazing the new way of banking in Tanzania. Offering industry firsts like the ability to open a fully functional (full KYC) account from one’s mobile device, or the ability to make banking transactions without leaving your favourite chat application, are but a few of the disruptive capabilities that the Bank is bringing to the market. The Bank continues to partner with various industry stakeholders in both the public and private space. This will mean the implementation of strategic initiatives such as, enhanced biometric identification security features, further integration with both government and private sector information service providers and keeping abreast of new technologies that can enhance the Bank’s digital offering. The ultimate goal is for the Bank to be cost efficient resulting in affordable products and services married with a fast turn-around time of service delivery to clients.
PARTNERING WITH THE ONE BELT ONE ROAD INITIATIVE Tanzania and Africa at large continue to see an interesting evolution of its relations with China. China is increasingly more visible in the development agenda of Africa as can be seen through the lenses of the Belt and Road initiative (BRI) - wideranging blue print announced by China since 2013 to open new trading routes across the erstwhile silk road. The BRI is essentially a modern-day silk road covering 60+ countries, two thirds of the global population across Europe, South and Central Asia, Middle East and Eastern Africa. African business can choose to look at the BRI in the positive prism and capture the opportunities that come with this initiative or refuse to do so and cast a bad light instead. If the initiative has already set aside $350 billion for various projects across the Belt and Road, surely there are significant pockets of opportunity for African countries that fall on BRI footprint such as Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia among others. I can point out a few areas that present opportunities to capture the BRI in two folds; first in terms of industry-sector opportunities and then second how to capture such opportunities. In terms of the how, there is plenty of room to push for partnerships with Chinese companies by way of Joint Ventures. With increasing enforcement of local content regulations across many jurisdictions, it makes it logical to partner with Chinese on such areas as local land acquisitions, government and community relationships and overall navigation of the local regulatory landscape. Obviously, this is possible when direct government lobbying is curtailed, and transparency improved. The question then becomes, which areas are good for collaborating now and in future? Technology, Media and Telecom or TMT will continue to present scalable growth in Africa. Smartphone uptake, and associated services as well as all the Internet based services will continue to present a scalable opportunity to leverage the China corridor opportunity. Just like China did, local content regulations will lead to new avenues to create scalable tech start-ups and inherent value chains for partnership which will bring exponential opportunities.
There is a wave of setting up local manufacturing plants to take advantage of lower labour costs, lower import tariffs and a host of local content requirements. There is a big opportunity for partnering on FMCGs, construction materials, that continue to set up plants in BRI jurisdictions including Tanzania. In Tanzania at least 10 mid to large size factories of such nature are already firing. Standard Chartered is one of the very few truly global banks that can facilitate trade, capital and investment flows across Belt & Road markets. Our global footprint over-laps with the Belt & Road destination countries and we have a long history of supporting clients across these trade and investment corridors. This new commitment will support our Chinese clients along the Belt & Road routes and help our destination market clients seize the opportunities resulting from this important initiative. Standard Chartered’s role in Belt & Road financing will be as an intermediary and service provider across a full range of lending, financial markets, transaction banking, capital markets and project finance activities. We have already been involved in more than 50 deals this year worth more than USD10 billion across a range of products and services. Around half of these were in Africa, a quarter in South Asia and the remainder from across the rest of the Belt & Road footprint. Head of Commercial Banking. Mr. James Meitaron observed that “Our segment and product capabilities in Commercial, Corporate and Institutional Banking, our local markets knowledge coupled by global experience we present Tanzanian and Eastern African firms a rare chance to benefit from this corridor and other global trade corridors in an unrivalled scale.
A significant portion of BRI in Africa is going into Railways and Roads and that is expected to spur household income growth in urban and peri-urban centres. There will be an increase in demand for organised consumer and retail business. This is also a good area to look at. More importantly is to partner on the large railway and road project as contractors or subcontractors as part of the local content regulatory framework in most jurisdictions to ensure maximum retention of capital in destination BRI.

STANDARD GAUGE RAILWAY The Bank signed facility agreements for a US$ 1.46 billion term loan financing to fund the construction of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) Rail Project from Dar es Salaam to Makutupora in Manyoni District, which is approximately 550 kilometers long. The Bank acted as Global Coordinator, Bookrunner and Mandated Lead Arranger on the facility agreement that is the largest foreign currency financing raised by the Ministry of Finance to date. The biggest component of financing comes from the Export Credit Agency Covered Facilities from the Export Credit Agencies of Denmark and Sweden.
The SGR Rail Project continues to make a significant contribution to the economic growth of the country and Standard Chartered is privileged to be a key participant. So far, the project has created over 8,000 direct employment opportunities and it’s expected that the number will continue to grow as a result of the new agreement. Additionally, the railway will provide a safe and reliable means for efficiently transporting people and cargo to and from the existing Dar es Salaam port where current congestion challenges are expected be addressed. It is estimated that freight service charges will decrease by 40% as the railway will be able to haul up to 10,000 tons of freight (equivalent to 500 Lorries) per trip. It will also connect Tanzania to Burundi, Rwanda and The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); thereby playing a key role in enhancing regional trade.
CEMENT - SUPPORTING THE INDUSTRIALIZATION DRIVE Standard Chartered Bank works with clients on a local, regional and global level in order to manage and service clients accordingly. Our experience is based on local and international expertise in meeting the clients’ manufacturing demands. • Standard Chartered provides products and services to the top three (out of four) cement companies in Tanzania. This includes Mbeya Cement (covers Southern Region, Burundi, Malawi and DRC), Tanga Cement (covers Central, Northern and Lake regions) and Dangote Cement (covers Southern, Central and Dar es Salaam). • Total production capacity for all three cement companies is five million tonnes (or 60% of all production in the country). • We financed the first ever vertical cement mill in the East African region for Mbeya Cement. • We were the lead arranger for a corporate finance loan for Dangote to switch from fuel to a tri-fuel power plant that can utilize gas, coal or fuel.
225
• We provide medium to long tenured Letters of Credit (LCs) in order for clients to import machinery from Europe and Asia to service the cement plants.

OUR CORE VALUES • • • •
Endowment Assurance Term Assurance Super Life Provider Super Education Provider
Agriculture, being the main business practiced by most Tanzanians at villages, will be promoted to a great extent through the crop insurance services. The service is intended to insure farmers’ crops against many agricultural challenges brought by drought, floods, hurricanes, storms, excessive rains, crop diseases, insects, birds, bushfires, wild animals etc. NIC don’t segregate, rather target to cooperate with any farmer who needs the service, be small or big. The benefits of this insurance to farmers and the agricultural sector are:• Peace of mind. It decreases farmer’s fear in investing within the agricultural sector, in as much as any loss will be assuredly refunded. • Enables modern agriculture through easy and efficient acquirement of agricultural implements and agricultural know–how. • Increases farmers’ yields through early tendering of the agricultural challenges. • Increases loaning capacity to farmers at financial institutions. • Makes agricultural business be a viable investment economically and socially.
NIC CLIENTELE BASE:
Among the large companies that use NIC services are the Tanzania Electric Supply Company (TANESCO), Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA), Tanzania Airports Authority (TAA), Air Tanzania Corporation Limited (ATCL), Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC), Medical Stores Department (MSD), National Social Security Fund (NSSF), Tanzania Telecommunications Company Limited (TTCL), Bank of Tanzania (BoT), National Housing Corporation (NHC), Public Services Social Security Fund (PSSSF), Tanzania Railways Corporation (TRC) and all the major road construction projects, just to mention but, a few. NIC is also trusted by foreign companies in its insurance services and so far some foreign companies are engaging in business relationships with NIC.
NIC IN THE INDUSTRIALIZATION AGENDA:
In support of industrialization, NIC has prepared its workers to provide relevancy services to customers, for which the workers has attended capacity building seminars, for the subjects, such as insurance services at industrial sites and industrialization. For future plans, NIC considers to initiate memorandum of understanding (MOU) with financial institutions in order to enable its “life insurance services” to be collateral for loans, so as to increase loaning capacity to its customers.
THE NIC’S CROP INSURANCE SERVICE:
Following the ‘Fifth Phase’ Government’s economic successes, NIC has come up with a new creation which eases up the daily challenges that face farmers and which hinder their economic developments. Among the creations are the “crop insurance services”, which helps farmers against disasters at their farms and which increases ability to be loaned and thus have the capability to implement modern agriculture economically and peacefully.
Thus, the inception of the crop insurance service is an important step in the direction of agricultural revolution because it will help the agricultural sector to develop, from the fact that a farmer would have an ability to invest extensively and peacefully, which results in the availability of abundant agricultural raw products to feed the industries in our country and the surplus to be sold outside. The crop insurance service is pivotal within the agricultural development chain for small and big farmers, in that this insurance package insures the farmer’s investment that is invested at the farm while assuring refunds when the farmer is challenged by disasters.
FUTURE PLANS:
NIC is enhancing its information and communication technology systems for efficiency and quality provision of services to customers. NIC intends to reach every cadre of the community especially those at the villages who have low incomes. This will change the mindset which goes on among our communities that, insurance services are for rich people only. This will help those who fear to incur insurance costs today, to re-think twice, because those costs would be minimal compared to costs that one would incur tomorrow, should there be a disaster such as inferno, theft or any accidents.
