There has been a remarkable increase in cargo shipments in Mozambique in recent years, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

This uptick in traffic can be attributed to the flourishing cross-border transportation activities between countries, and experts predict that this trend will continue to gain momentum.

According to Tiago Pocinho, Rangel Logistics Solutions country manager for South Africa and Zambia, the phenomenon has been driven by several factors, including regional trade agreements, the growth of e-commerce and the expansion of transportation infrastructure.

"Mozambique is becoming an increasingly crucial connection point for trade between countries in the southern African region," he said.

"Companies are investing in cross-border logistics and transportation to seize the business opportunities emerging in this rapidly evolving environment.

"This promising growth reflects the growing importance of Mozambique as a regional logistics hub and underscores its pivotal role in intercontinental trade."
