    Tanzania is a dynamic and growing market with abundant resources and a strategic location in East Africa. Its commitment to sustainable development offers numerous opportunities for Dutch companies.

    Focus Areas of the Mission:

    1. Sustainable Agriculture and Agro-processing:

    a. Introduce solutions for future-proof agriculture production (e.g. horticulture, seeds, crop protection, inputs).
    b. Develop partnerships in innovative packaging solutions to minimise waste and extend the shelf life of fresh products.
    c. Exploring value addition to agricultural goods through processing.

    2. Infrastructure:

    a. Exploring infrastructure such as railway/airport terminals and port facilities for enhancing transportation and improved cold-chains.
    b. Development of facilities such as pack-houses and cold storage.
