EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report provides findings of a marketing research about business opportunities

available in Tanzania, for which South African Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)
can venture and mutually benefit through business transactions with the local business
community. The essence of the study is the observation by the ECIAFRICA Consulting
(Pty) Ltd of South Africa, that in the past few years South African large enterprises
have actively been doing business with Tanzania while on the other hand South
African SMEs have not done much. In that respect, through its South African
International Business Linkages (SAIBL) Programme, ECIAFRICA Consulting (Pty)
Ltd contracted Mr. R. G. Mutakyahwa of ROMME CENTRE located in Dar es Salaam,
to carry out a marketing research for the purpose of establishing the demand and
possible opportunities for South African SMEs’ products and services.

The consultant carried out the study in March and April 2007, in the regions of Dar es
Salaam, Arusha, and Mwanza. Dar es Salaam is the business city and was the capital
of Tanzania before Dodoma was given the status of a capital city. Mwanza and Arusha
are the next leading business cities of Tanzania and have many activities in mining
and tourism, respectively. The study involved both primary and secondary data,
whereby the former were directly collected from business actors in various sectors,
using a questionnaire. The sample size comprised of 170 importing enterprises, out of
which 157 are located in Dar es Salaam, 7 in Mwanza and the remaining 6 are in
Arusha (Appendix 7 (a). Secondary data were collected from various government and
non-state sectors, including the Bank of Tanzania (BOT), the Tanzania Revenue
Authority (TRA), the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the Ministry of Industry,
Trade and Marketing (MITM), the Tanzania Chamber of Commerce, Industry and
Agriculture (TCCIA), the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI), National policy
documents, speeches of the President and relevant ministers, just to mention a few.
Both qualitative and quantitative data was collected and analysed.

iii
The findings from the data analysis process indicate that there are many business
sectors and associated opportunities, for which South African SMEs can strategically
target. Informed by findings from the various data sources mentioned above, the
consultant is of the opinion that South African SMEs have many opportunities in the
following sectors:

Agriculture (including Livestock and Fishing)

Mining

Tourism & Natural resources

Construction

Manufacturing (and Industries)

Trade

Financial & Business services (including insurance)

ICT (including telecommunications)

The decisions in favour of these sectors are based on the reasons that they are the
sectors with the highest contributions to the GDP (Figure 6), they are given priority by
the current government in such a way that the government has plans and support
strategies for them (Table 3 and Table 4), and they have positive trends in their
growth rates (Appendix 7 (a).

The consultant suggests that South African SMEs can venture into the Tanzanian
business environment by means of partnerships (or rather matching) with local
enterprises, identifying them and then exporting directly to interested customers (end
users, retailers and wholesales) of certain products, establishment of
branches/subsidiaries, and direct investment. Out of these approaches, the consultant
proposes that partnerships with local business actors be given the first priority. This
banks on the findings that politically the current government is also in favour of
facilitating such partnerships and economically the approach bears many advantages

iv
to South African SMEs, including easy of access to land, business licences and
permits by the local partners.

As a starting point to facilitating the matching process, a list of Tanzanian importers

and types of products they import is appended (Appendix 7). Such a list has the
addresses (postal, email and telephone numbers) of those importers so that potential
South African SME exporters can easily contact and start networking with local
enterprises that deal with similar products and services. These Tanzanian importers
were interviewed and showed interest in sourcing products and services from South
African enterprises or working in partnership with their South African counterparts.
(Appendix 2 (b) provides a list of key institutions to assist in trade facilitation and
investment opportunities.

Moreover, as a way of exposing and hence acquisition of awareness about the

Tanzanian business environment, South African SMEs can take advantage of the
annually organised Dar es Salaam International Trade Fair which takes place in every
July. Special exhibitions can also be explored by SMEs and ECIAfrica. These can
assist them in validating their business concepts. The report further provides
guidelines on the legal and regulatory matters that are necessary for importation of
products and services in Tanzania (Table 5 and Appendix 5).

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.2 Background information

The United Republic of Tanzania is the largest of the East African Countries, having an area of
945,000 square kilometres and an estimated population of 37.9 million in 2006 (URT., 2006).
From the early 1960s to early 1980s the country adopted and practiced socialist policies
whereby all major means of production and many of businesses were directly controlled by the
state. Nevertheless in the mid 1980s, following economic crises that were associated with the
socialist policies, the government adopted reform processes that gradually started shifting it
from socialism to market oriented policies. As a result of these reforms, over the past few years
(2000 – 2006) the country’s GDP has been growing at a rate of above 5%.

Currently, with its Vision 2025, the government is committed to a market driven economy
wherein the private sector plays a greater role in economic activities. Indeed a number of
umbrella private sector organizations and associations have been established in order to
articulate their needs to the wider public and strengthen their capacity to dialogue with the
Government. Such organizations, include the Tanzania National Business Council (TNBC),
Tanzania Private Sector Foundation (TPSF), Tanzania Chamber of Commerce, Industry and
Agriculture (TCCIA), Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI) and “Vikundi vya Biashara
Ndogondogo” (VIBINDO), Tanzania Industries among many others. Moreover, apart from
strategizing at making the business environment conducive to local enterprises, the current
government is very committed to attracting and supporting mutually beneficial business
relationships with foreign institutions and the international community.

Specifically with regard to trade relationships with South Africa, it is apparent that business
linkages between South Africa and Tanzania have been gradually increasing in the past few
years (Figur 2). The market orientation governance structure that Tanzania adopted provides
more opportunities to South African firms to transact with her in various forms, including trade
(import and export trade), foreign direct investments (FDIs), partnerships, and management
contracts. Available statistics show that the volume of trade between the two countries has
increased from US$ 314.9 million to US$ 696.3 million between 2003 and 2005 (URT, 2007).
Specifically, Tanzania’s exports to South Africa increased from US$ 38 million in 2003 to US$
292 million in 2005. Similarly, Tanzania’s imports from South Africa increased from US$277
million to US$404 million over the same period. These figures serve to demonstrate that South
Africa has increasingly become a significant and thriving trading partner of Tanzania. South
Africa is the fifth largest source of foreign direct investment to Tanzania after the United
Kingdom, Kenya, India and China. Statistics show that between 1990 and 2006 investment
flows from South Africa reached $ 467 million. This accounted for about 10% of the total
investment flows to Tanzania during that period. However, most of the South African firms that
have ventured into Tanzania are large companies. Small and Medium size Enterprises (SMEs)
are still finding it difficult to venture and hence take part in mutually beneficial transactions with
their counterparts in the Tanzanian business environment.

Having observed that South African SMEs also have the potential to export various products
and services to Tanzania but are limited by their size, exposure and absence of networks and
linkages, ECIAfrica Consulting (Pty) Ltd through its South African International Business
Linkages Programme (SAIBL) found it imperative to intervene and explore opportunities for
South African SMEs. To achieve this the SAIBL programme contracted R. G. Mutakyahwa of

1
ROMME CENTRE, Dar es Salaam; to carry out a market research in Tanzania with the view to
establishing the demand and possible opportunities for South African SME products and
services as well as identifying potential buyers of such products.

1.2. Research objectives

In general terms, the market research was intended to identify and assess market and
investment opportunities for South African SMEs. It focused on identifying current, emerging
and other products and service sectors that provide opportunities for South African SMEs.
Among other things, it included identification of key sectors in the Tanzanian economy, an
assessment of current and potential goods and services being imported by Tanzanian firms,
import procedures of such products and services, and contacts for doing business in Tanzania.

Following the above overall objective, the specific objectives of the study were:
1. Identifying and analysing sectors with growth potential in Tanzania and identifying
opportunities for South African SMEs that aspire to export goods and services.
2. Identifying Tanzanian importers and businesses importing such goods and services,
where they source from at present and why, and providing insights into the key drivers
of buying decisions of importers.
3. Providing information or listing key sources on relevant legal and regulatory
requirements for importation of products and services in Tanzania.
4. Providing guidance and recommendations on effective ways of exposing South African
SMEs to the Tanzanian market and business opportunities, and identifying relevant
contacts and institutions (to assist in trade facilitation and investment opportunities)
5. Providing a report of findings and recommendations with appropriate annexes and
reference information.

1.3 Significance of the research

As implied above, the expected outcomes of the study are to assist in identifying opportunities
for specific products and services that are in demand in Tanzania, which could be sourced or
supplied from SMEs in South Africa. Various mechanisms through which such products and
services could possibly be supplied in Tanzania were to be explored with the view to advising
on the most appropriate ones. Such sourcing arrangements include direct importation, direct
investing in Tanzania, and agency arrangements or partnerships with local (Tanzanian)
companies. Moreover, should such opportunities exist, SAIBL intend to use such findings in
facilitating networking and matchmaking for South African SMEs with Tanzanian businesses.

2.0 METHODOLOGY

In order to meet the objectives of the study, the consultant used a combination of methods,
which strategically aimed at coming up with current, relevant, reliable and valid information.
The exercise started in March, 2007 and ended in mid April, 2007. Below is a brief explanation
on the methodology.

2.1 Sources of data

For the purpose of acquiring a comprehensive understanding of the possible business

opportunities that can be pursued by South African SMEs, the consultant collected data from
various sources, public and private. These include the Bank of Tanzania (BOT), the National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the Ministry of Trade, Industries and Marketing (MITM), the Board
of External Trade (BET), Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA), and Tanzania Investment Centre
(TIC). Other sources included the Tanzania National Business Council (TNBC),
Institutions/Chambers in relevant sectors such as Tanzania Chamber of Commerce, Industries
and Agriculture (TCCIA) and the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI).

Government policy documents were also reviewed in order to have a sound picture of
government priorities with regard to business related matters. Documents reviewed include the
National Trade Policy (2003), the National SME Policy (2003), the National Strategy for Growth
and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP, popularly known as MKUKUTA), Tanzania
Communications Regulatory Authority, National ICT Policy (2003), National Budgets, and
speeches of the President and Ministers with regard to investment promotion in Tanzania.

In addition, consultations and discussions were made with major importers, retailers,
wholesalers and businesses for potential networking and matchmaking with South African
SMEs. Table 1 below indicates the various data sources used/activities conducted and the
associated results.

2.2 Data collection methods

The data collection method adopted is that of personal contacts with key informants.
Specifically with regard to collection of data from importers, wholesalers and retailers, this
approach seemed appropriate because more information could be collected from them.
Likewise, personal visits were also made to Associations, Chambers, Ministries, and Bureaus
whereby in-depth interviews were held with key informants (See Appendix 1, People met and
discussed with). In addition to personal visits, where possible information from websites of
these data sources were also accessed and are included in Appendix 2.

2.3 Type of data collected

Both quantitative and qualitative data was collected. Quantitative data was used in establishing
the volumes and value of imports in various sectors, product categories, their countries of
origin, and similar information. Such data enabled the researchers1 to generate trends of
importations in those sectors. Qualitative information on the other hand was used in
ascertaining a wide range of information including motivation and preferences of Tanzanian
importers, sourcing products from certain countries. Such information was also helpful in
ascertaining concerns of key decision makers in the business environment as reflected in
national policies, ministerial and the presidential speeches. All these assist in providing
strategic direction of the nation’s trade and investment priorities.

The Consultant engaged the services of 2 Researchers and 7Feld Assistants.

2.4 Sample size and sampling procedures

A total of 157 enterprises located in Dar es Salaam were visited and interviewed by the
research team, using a brief questionnaire (See Appendix 3). These enterprises operate in
various business sectors. However, since tourism and mining related businesses are also more
active in Arusha region, 6 more firms falling in the tourism and mining sectors were selected
and interviewed in this region. Moreover, with the understanding that mining activities are
actively undertaken in Mwanza region, data collection was also conducted in this region
whereby 7 more enterprises of which 2 were falling in the mining sector were interviewed for
information on inputs they require for their business operations. This makes the overall total of
enterprises visited to sum up to 170. Apart from these enterprises, data was also collected from
various government and non-government institutions as indicated above under sources of data.

2.5 Data analysis

Quantitative data was analysed by the use of a computer spreadsheet (the Excel). Among
other things this facilitated establishing aggregates (value and volumes) of imports of various
product categories, trends of importation from various countries as well as projecting the way
the future performance is likely to be. Qualitative data was analysed by the use of pattern
analyses, whereby different qualitative data sources were cross-examined in order to see if at
all they all have the same trend. For instance, assertions in policy documents and high level
speeches were analysed together in order to establish which business sectors are given priority
by the current government, in the light of which appropriate advice can be provided to South
African SMEs that intend to do business with Tanzania.

3.0 FINDINGS

The above mentioned data collection and analysis processes generated a richer information
base that adequately enabled the consultant to address the research objectives. The key
issues examined and analysed are presented as follows: first, the position of South Africa in the
Tanzanian market is explained, followed by the trends of Tanzania’s major imports. The next
section includes key decision drivers for Tanzanian importers to import from the current
countries of origin, business sectors with greatest growth potentials, and key sectors that are
currently given priority by different government authorities. The sectors that the consultant
proposes South African SMEs to focus on are then explained and analysed, followed by
Tanzanian importers and the type of products and services they import, and then the legal and
regulatory requirements for importation of products and services in Tanzania.

3.1 Position of South Africa in the Tanzanian market

In general terms, the findings indicate that for the period 2000/2006 Tanzania has been an
attractive destination of South African products and services to the extent that South Africa has
become the leading exporter in the Tanzanian market. This is supported by the data, which
indicate that in the list of the top ten exporters into Tanzania, South Africa leads and accounts
for 20% of the total imports. Figure 1 below indicates such top ten countries and their

5
respective proportions of imports, whereby the total value of South African imported products
and services over the period 2000/2005 is 2,260,451 millions of Tanzanian Shillings2.

Figure 1: Tanzania’s top ten importers and their respective proportions for 2000/5

Data source: Bank of Tanzania, 2006 and National Bureau of Statistics 2006

In addition, the data indicates that the trend of importation is increasing. This is supported by
the observation that while in the year 2000 Tanzania imported products and services worth
139,577 millions of Tanzanian Shillings from South African, the figure increased to 440,090
millions of Tanzanian Shillings by the year 2005. The trend of imports from the top ten
exporters into the Tanzanian market is indicated in the Figure 2.

3.2 Trends of Tanzania’s major imports

The data on Tanzania’s major categories of imports is summarized in Figure 3. Such data
indicates that with the exception of 2006 in many of the years 2001 to 2005 capital goods
(which include transport equipment, building & construction, and machinery) had the largest
proportion of imports. Second were Consumer goods (which include food & food stuff, as well
as other consumer goods) followed by intermediate goods (which include oil, fertilizers, and
industrial raw materials). However, in the year 2006 the situation changed whereby
intermediate goods had the highest proportion, followed by capital goods and lastly consumer
goods.

Regarding major commodity groups, the data trends presented in Figure 4 indicate that
importation of oil is in the lead, followed by machinery and other consumer goods. Next in the
list of imports with higher proportions are transportation equipment, industrial raw materials and
building & construction materials. Importations of foodstuff and fertilizers are the least.

3.3 Future demand of South African products and services in Tanzania

Regarding the demand for products from South Africa, data collected from importers as well as
the Tanzania Revenue Authority (which plays a key role in assessment of imports), indicate
that for the years 2003 to 2006 there has been a continuation of importation of the various
product categories which generate the grand totals indicated in Figure 4. These observations
suggest that given that the GDP is consistently increasing and there are no major changes and
policy reforms that can affect the situation, the demand for these product categories will
continue growing. A list of such product categories and their importations over these years is
provided in Appendix 4.

This was also revealed by Tanzanian importers and business firms that were interviewed. They
indicated the types of goods and services they would like to get from South Africa (See
Appendix 7 (b).

3.4 Motivation of Tanzanian importers to buy from current countries of origin

During interviews, importers were asked about what motivates them to import products and
services from various countries. Multiple responses were provided by the 170 respondents and
from those responses summaries of frequencies were generated during the data analysis
process. The findings indicate that regarding motivation to buy from the current countries of
origin, quality and price are the leading factors that Tanzanian importers consider. They
account for 40% and 35%, respectively for all reasons given by importers. In addition,
consistence of availability of supplies, possibilities of working in partnership with enterprises
in exporting countries as well as convenience of logistical processes are also taken into

8
consideration. In that regard, South African SMEs that aspire to export their products and
services into the Tanzanian market should carefully consider these factors. Table 2 provides a
list of the key motivating factors and their respective percentages of importance.

Table 2: Motivation of Tanzanian firms to import from current countries of origin

S/No. Motivation Factor Percent

1. Quality 40%
2. Price 35%
3. Availability 12%
4. Partnerships 6%
5. Convenience/Logistics 4%
6. Relations 1%
7. Technology 1%
8. Others 2%
Data source: Research Data

Generally, the hierarchy of motivating factors as indicated in the above table does not depend
on the types of products or services. However, there is an exception to it with respect to the
following items (which do not follow this general trend):

Technology: The price factor on this aspect has a weight of 60% and availability of it is
given a weight of only 4% by many of the respondents.

Tractors: The price aspect has a weight of 45% and working in partnerships is
accorded a weight of 27%. This follows the fact that working in partnership ensures
sustainable availability of spare parts and related services.

Furniture: With regard to these products, quality and price are given equal importance.
Long-term relationships with the suppliers are not given high importance, perhaps
because customers of these products don’t need services from suppliers once these
products are bought.

Alcohol - more preference is on availability (80%) and packaging materials (23%). The
aspect of packaging emerges here because of the availability of competitive brands and
hence the need to make the appearance of products different from those of competing
brands.

Moreover, it is important to note that there are countries whose imports do not follow the
general trend established above. These are as indicated below:

Kenya - price (49%) is the main motivation to buy products and services from Kenya
followed availability (33%).

India - more weight is on the price factor (45%) followed by quality (39%) .

Other Africa countries: Availability is the main factor (80%) that makes Tanzanian
business firms to get goods from African countries. The aspect of reliability and
availability of supplies is important because of inability of many of the enterprises in
African countries to supply consistently. Importers therefore consider this as an
important aspect before establishing business relationships with suppliers from these
countries.

Flexibility is another aspect that motivates people to get commodities from China and
Taiwan as they can adjust in case the buyer changes his/her mind. Suppliers from
these countries are placed high on this aspect as they can accommodate changes on
the importers’ side, for instance on issues about quantities, product assortments, and

 delivery schedules. These qualities support long-term relationships with Tanzanian
importers.

Partnerships are more for South Africa and India as companies operating in Tanzania
tend to buy products from companies in their respective countries and family relations
for the case of India.

Belgium - availability of products takes a high weight of 60%.

3.5 Business sectors with the greatest growth potentials

The above information suggests that for the last decade the Tanzanian GDP has been
consistently growing at a rate which is above 5% as indicated in Figure 5, the market (effective
demand) and opportunities for South African imports in Tanzania will proportionately continue
to increase if appropriate strategies are pursued by South African exporters. Factors leading to
increased demand include the growth of GDP3 and inflow of Foreign Direct Investments.

The data reveal that while in the early 1990s GDP annual growth rates were often lower than
the population growth rate, economic growth has since the mid-1990s risen more steadily and
over taken the population growth rate, which was 2.9% on the average for 1988 –2002. For
instance, in 2005 the economy grew by 6.8 percent compared to 6.7 percent in 2004. The
major sectors contributing to this growth are4:
• Agriculture that includes livestock and fishing
• Manufacturing
• Mining
• Tourism and Natural Resources
• Construction and Land Management
• Trade
• Financial and Business service including insurance
• ICT- including telecommunications

3 The GDP growth is likely to continue due to the current NSGRP that puts emphasis on growth and reduction of
income poverty, and Improvement of Quality of life and Social Well Being.
4 See also Figure 7.

10
The implication of these findings to South African SMEs is that the above sectors have the
ability to stimulate demand (through forward and backward linkages) for inputs that are mostly
sourced outside Tanzania. For instance, considering the tourism and natural resources sector,
there are many opportunities that demonstrate both forward and backward linkages. These
include investing and operating hotels, tour operation services, and training services. Investing
in these activities has multiplier effects on other economic activities, including trade
(importation of road and house construction materials, importation of vehicles that are
appropriate for tour operations and spare parts for such vehicles), teaching and learning on ICT
and tour related management. Moreover, there are linkages with the agricultural sector for
supplies of food, vegetables and fruits that can have a ready market in the hotels. Thus,
opportunities for South African imports will continue unfolding if such SMEs can keenly identify
the right sectors and product categories that match their potentials.

From the above overall picture of the Tanzanian GDP growth, the consultant disaggregated
and analysed the individual contributions of the above sectors. This sector-wide analysis is
important as it gives an indication of the appropriate sectors upon which South African SMEs
can reasonably target. Figure 6 provides the GDP percentage share of selected sectors over
the years 2000 to 2001.

Some details about the sector-wise analysis and the opportunities in each of the sectors are as
follows5 :

1. Agriculture
The agriculture sector has for a long time been the backbone of Tanzania’s economy, creating
employment and incomes to the majority. It also has many forward and backward linkages with
other sectors including manufacturing, tourism and trade. In 2005, this sector grew by 5.3
percent compared to 5.8 percent in 2004.

Opportunities for investing in the agricultural sector include irrigation farming, livestock
and poultry keeping and agro-processing.

2. Manufacturing
This sector grew by 9.0 percent in 2005 compared to 8.6 percent in 2004. The growth was
attributed to increased production of products such as cement, beverages, corrugated iron
sheet, steel products, plastic products and textiles. Manufacturing is demand driven and
responds to incentives to local manufacturers and competition posed by imported products.

In this industry there are opportunities to supply raw materials required by manufacturers
and the establishment of even small plants for processing of selected products including
processing of agricultural products.

3. Mining
This is one of the fastest growing sectors in the recent years. In 2005, the mining sector grew
by 15.7 percent compared to 15.4 in 2004. This sector requires heavy investment and the

5 Further information is indicated in Appendix 7 (b)

12
opportunities for SMEs are on supporting the communities living around the mines to improve
their skills and knowledge through training and financial services to enable them to establish
economically beneficial linkages with mining firms. Other opportunities include investing in
mining activities and marketing/selling of minerals and related products. The Buhesi Dealers
Company and Tanzanite Africa in Arusha are some of such companies that require partners in
mining related businesses. Provision of supplies and support services to the mining companies
is another area where South African SMEs can think about. Supplies include explosives
especially dynamite, chemicals including silicon and mercury, helmets polishing powder and
professional services of geologists and mining enginners.

4. Tourism and Natural Resources

This sector is currently growing and hence important in employment creation, income
generation, forward and backward linkages, and overall contribution to GDP. In 2005, forestry
and hunting sub-sector grew by 4.5 percent compared to 3.8 percent in 2004. Fisheries sub-
sector grew by 7.3 percent in 2005 compared to 6.7 percent in 2004.

Tanzania is internationally renowned to its abundance of tourism attractions including wildlife

sanctuaries, mountains and pristine beaches. The tourism sector has been one of the success
areas showing significant growth on the Mainland and Zanzibar during the last decade as
recent statistics reveal.
i. The number of projects approved by TIC kept on growing from 31 projects in 1997 to
229 projects in 2000 and by 2004, a total of 664 projects in the tourism sector had
been registered with TIC.
ii. In 2005, a total of 624,020 foreign tourists visited Tanzania compared to 582,807 in
2004. It is expected that by 2010 the country will receive 1 million tourists a year if the
sector continues to grow at the rate of between 10% and 20%.
iii. Tourism is the second largest foreign exchange earner (over $600 million in 2003/04)
and it employs roughly 322,000 workers.
iv. According to information (March 31,2005) from the Ministry of Natural Resources and
Tourisms (MNRT) is that the tourism sector will continue to grow substantially as a
result of government economic reforms, anti-poaching measures to boost the game
populations, and local communities and local communities also are encouraged to
conserve and protect animals.

Opportunities in this industry cover the establishment of forests and facilities for improving
services to tourists including opening up new tourist centres throughout the country,
ecotourism, hotels, training and managerial services. Foreign nationals take up managerial
and supervisory positions in tourist hotels. In turn, this will eventually increase the importation
of basic requirements for tourism including food stuff, construction and building materials,
electrical and security services.

5. Construction and Land Development

In 2005, the sector grew by 12.3 percent compared to 12.0 percent in 2004. The growth was
mainly contributed by maintenance and rehabilitation of bridges, construction of residential
houses, and commercial buildings. Land development, the construction of Primary and
Secondary School buildings, and roads were other factors that stimulated grouth of this sector.

Investment opportunities are in supply of construction materials and participating in

construction works and provision of professional services including land survey and
architecture.

13
In the education sector, the construction of more schools creates an opportunity for the
provision of training materials, aids, and some materials that could be processed and
manufactured in Tanzania. Products that target school children and construction of schools are
highly demanded (medium and long term plans).

6. Internal Trade
Wholesale and retail trade, hotels and restaurant sector grew by 8.2 percent in 2005 compared
to 7.8 percent in 2004.

Opportunities in Internal Trade are around the ease in registering a business enterprise in
Tanzania – as an individual, in partnership or in joint venture, or as a company. Once you have
established a business you can import products and trade. Participation in internal trade fairs
(Dar es Salaam International Trade Fair) could be a measure that would assist to evaluate the
performance of ones’ products in the internal market. This fact then would be used as a base
for – deciding on trade modalities.

7. Financial and Business Services

During 2004/05, broad money supply (M2) increased from Tanzanian Shillings 1,856,326.30 in
2003/04 to 2,366,508.00, equivalent to an increase of 27.5 percent. During the same period,
domestic credit increased from Tanzanian Shillings 1,123,588 million in 2003/04 to 1,504,077
million, equivalent to an increase of 33.9 percent. Also in 2004/05, commercial banks credit to
various sectors increased from Tanzanian Shillings 965,985.9 million in 2003/04 to 1,219,305.6
million, equivalent to an increase of 26.2 percent. In the same period, the government
continued to create conducive environment to facilitate various sectors to access credit. By end
of December 2005, there were 8 companies listed at the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange
(DSE) compared to 7 companies in 2004, out of which 6 were local and 2 foreign companies.
Despite these developments in the financial services sector almost 54% of the population (16
years and over) are excluded from financial services as revealed by FinScope survey in
Tanzania 2006 (FSDT).

The opportunity in this industry is to support MFIs access required finances by their clients
especially in the rural areas; including capacity building for management and control of
MFIs businesses. Establishment of medium size MFIs and insurance related activities is
another possible area for intervention.

8. ICT – Including Telecommunications.

During 2005, the Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority (TCRA) continued to oversee
the quality of communication equipment imported from various countries. By December 2005,
Tanzania continued to use the micro-wave ICT National Backbone whose capacity was below
users demand. In 2005, a total of 23 companies were providing internal services, the same
number as was in 2004. The cost of internet services continued to be high due to inadequate
infrastructure and other basic services required facilitating the provision of communication
services such as reliable electricity and adequate capacity of existing ICT national backbone
infrastructure. By the end of 2005, there were 33 radio stations, 15 television stations and 17
cable televisions.
Opportunities are in ICT capacity building –to be able to benefit from these technology
people need to be trained to acquire skills and knowledge for the use, management,
maintenance and control of the rapid changes in ICT. A specialized high level ICT
Institute needs to be established. Training institutions in South Africa could open centres
in Tanzania for training and back up services.
14
 Business sectors that are given priority by different Government
Authorities

Findings from the literature review and personal interactions with key informants in different
government authorities revealed that they have slightly different priorities on business sectors
as indicated in Table 3. For instance, being a facilitative organ for investments in Tanzania, the
Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) indicates some sectors for which more priority is given. On
the other hand data from the National Bureau of Statistics indicates some sectors with more
contribution to the GDP, and likewise the Bank of Tanzania that oversees all local and
international economic issues for the country indicates a slightly different ranking of the sectors.
However, going through the priority sectors indicated by each of these government authorities
one can observe that more or less the same sectors are mentioned by all of them, only that the
ranking slightly differs.

Proposed key sectors on which South African SMEs can focus

Informed by the above findings as well as findings from other sources (including presidential
and relevant ministerial speeches, reports and national policy documents as indicated under
sources of data above), the consultant was able to establish an informed opinion on all the
business sectors. Accordingly, the sectors which have growth potentials are of national priority
and provide opportunities on which South African SMEs can focus are indicated in Table 4.

Tanzanian importers and types of products and services they import

The findings indicated that Tanzanian individuals, public and private enterprise import inputs
appropriate to their production requirements. Those active in agriculture, manufacturing, mining
or trade require varied types of inputs and goods which may be imported either from East
Africa, other African countries, Europe, Asia, America, etc.

The economic survey 2005 has a list on page 52 of countries from where most Tanzania
imports originate. Moreover, the Annual Trade statistics compiled by the Customs Department
of the TRA gives details on direct imports by commodity, country of origin, value, net weight
and quantity. It also indicates value and market share for each country of origin. Appendix 4
has been developed from TRA records.

A list of importers with the type of their imports is appended together with an indication of
preferred goods/services they would wish to trade/import from South Africa is provided in
Appendix 7.

3.9 Legal and regulatory requirements for importation of products and services
in Tanzania

Importation of goods and services in Tanzania is governed by various legal and regulatory
requirements including the East Africa Customs Management Act, Business Registration and
License Act, and Income Tax Act. In that regard, all enterprises operating in Tanzania,
whatever their legal forms, must register with the Business Registration and Licensing Agency
(BRELA) of the Ministry of Industries, Trade and Marketing. A valid business license is
obtained after meeting the requirements set forth, including submission of a Certificate of

19
Incorporation, Memorandum and Articles of Association, Proof of business premises and an
inspection report of the premises by Land and Health Officers.

Table 6 summarises the basic legal and regulatory requirements for undertaking business
activities and importation of products and services in Tanzania, with an emphasis on the
sectors suggested above. The table also provides the contacts from where additional
information can be obtained by interested South African SMEs. (See also Appendix 2)

Moreover, following the reforms that Tanzania has undergone since the mid 1980s, various
incentives and support have been provided to foreign enterprises that intend to do business in
Tanzania. As a matter of exposing South African SMEs to these incentives a summary of some
key issues is provided in Appendix 5.

4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1. Recommendations on means of exposing South African SMEs to Tanzania

Informed by the above findings and discussions with various informants, the consultant
recommends the following approaches that can be used in exposing South African SMEs to the
Tanzanian market:

Personal discussions with businesses in Tanzania especially those who
expressed need for discussion and additional information. This is based on the
fact that in the course of conducting the interviews some interviewees were impressed
with the possibility of being linked with their South African Counterparts. As a starting
point, they proposed that their names, addresses, products and services be provided
to potential South African partners for possibilities of matching (see the list provided in
Appendix 7 (a). Alternatively, they proposed that if they can have a list of potential
South African SMEs with whom they do business together, they could directly initiate
interactions with them.

Organising talks with the Small Industries Development Organisation (SIDO), CTI
and other bodies dealing with trade, SMEs and other priority sectors. These
bodies can be used as links to major opportunities in their sectors, on which South
African SMEs can focus.

South African SMEs taking advantage of the annually organised Dar es Salaam
International Trade Fair (DITF) which takes place in every July. This can assist them
in validating their business concepts as well as soliciting appropriate business
partners.

Organising special exhibitions in major towns like Dar es Salaam, Arusha,

Dodoma and Mwanza. This can be done in collaboration with the Board of External
Trade, SIDO, South African Business Community and the South African High
Commssion in Tanzania, with the view to exposing interested South African SMEs, to

22
 the Tanzanian business environment. Enterprises from other countries (like China,
United Arab Emirates and Turkey) have been using this approach.

Inviting the bodies/institutions dealing with trade and investment opportunities

in Tanzania to attend trade fairs/exhibitions organised in South Africa. These can
provided sector specific opportunities as well as names and addresses of potential
Tanzanian business partners for South African SMEs.

4.2 Possible entry strategies that can be used by South African SMEs

South African SMEs can venture into the Tanzanian business environment by the use of
various means used in accessing international markets. These include:-
• Joint venturing (establishing partnerships, or rather matching) with local enterprises,
• Identifying and then exporting directly to interested customers (end users, retailers and
wholesales) of certain products,
• Establishment of branches/subsidiaries, and direct investment.

Each of the above entry strategies is associated with certain merits and demerits. Joint
ventures with local enterprises, for instance in the mining sector has the advantage because
the local partner can easily acquire the land and permits for mining purposes, a situation that
would be difficult or costly for a foreign SME. In other sectors as well, there are advantages of
local partners being able to easily acquire business premises. However, some of the demerits
are associated with the sharing of the profits from the business as well as the requirement to
make decisions after discussions and arriving at a certain consensus.

Establishment of branches/subsidiaries has the advantage of retaining the decision making

powers at corporate level as well as appropriation of the profits from operations of the
business. However, for a foreign SME there might be challenges associated with costly and
cumbersome procedures of acquiring working premises, working permits, licenses, and similar
requirements.

In the same way, with the strategy of direct investment the foreign company retains its decision
making authorities and the returns out of the business. Nevertheless, for SMEs there might be
challenges associated with, for instance, the costly and cumbersome procedures as indicated
earlier.

Out of the above entry strategies, the consultant is of the opinion that networking and
partnering with local enterprises is the highest ranking strategy as it has many advantages on
the side of South African SMEs. These include the advantages that local partners can easily
acquire business premises, register the businesses, acquire relevant permits and are aware of
the local business environment. Moreover, the current government is also in favour of
facilitating such partnerships. As a starting point a list of Tanzanian importers and types of
products they import is appended (Appendix 7(a). Such a list has the addresses (postal, email
and telephone numbers) of those importers so that potential South African SME exporters can
easily contact and start networking with local enterprises that deal with similar products and
services. These Tanzanian importers were interviewed and showed interest in sourcing
products and services from South African enterprises or working in partnership with their South
African counterparts if appropriate match happen to exist.

SOUTH AFRICAN INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS LINKAGES PROGRAMME (SAIBL)

SCOPE OF WORK FOR MARKET RESEARCH AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES IN

TANZANIA

PROMOTION OF EXPORTS OF SOUTH AFRICA HISTORICALLY DISADVANTAGED

ENTERPRISES TO THE REGION

BACKGROUND
The South African International Business Linkages (SAIBL) is a SME sector support programme
of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), contracted to Corporate Council for
Africa (CCA), and sub-contracted to ECIAfrica Consulting (Pty) Ltd. as its partner to run the project in
South Africa. The purpose of the SAIBL programme is to build the capacity and competitiveness of
historically disadvantaged, small and medium South African enterprises, through trade and investment
partnerships with domestic, regional and international companies.

The SAIBL Project has 4 key components:

a) Promoting and facilitating business linkages through procurement and supply chain
activities between Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) enterprises and local
corporations.

b) Market development, market information, matchmaking and international exposure

support for BEE enterprises aimed at increasing the number of BEE exporters and export
trade.

c) Capacity building through technical assistance, training, business advice.

d) Partnership development and leverage aimed at improving the opportunities, resources

and business environment for BEE enterprises.

The SAIBL TRADE programme is responsible for component 1(b), that is, increasing the number of
historically disadvantaged enterprises (HDEs) to regional, African and international (primarily US)
markets. The principal strategy and methodology to promote South African HDEs exports is a demand-
driven approach to identifying, facilitating, and ultimately fostering commercially viable cross border
business transactions. The main area and focus of support from SAIBL TRADE has therefore
been to South African HDEs exporting goods in the mining and manufacturing sectors.

PURPOSE
Market research and information is a critical component to establish the demand and possible
opportunities for South African products and services and to identify potential buyers of South African
products. The purpose of this market research is to identify and assess market and investment
opportunities for South African small and medium enterprises. This study should focus on
identifying current, emerging and other service sector opportunities for South African HDEs.
This should include the identification of key growth sectors in the economy, an assessment of
current and potential goods and services being imported by Tanzanian firms, import
procedures, and contacts for doing business in Tanzania.

58
Should opportunities exist, we would be keen to facilitate networking and matchmaking of our
South African clients with Tanzanian businesses.

APPROACH
The SAIBL Regional Trade Specialist and SAIBL Trade Development Specialist will provide
support to the Local Consultant and focus on identification of sector opportunities from national
data and development plans, key informant interviews, and consolidation of the final report.

The Local Consultant will be responsible for:

6. Identification and motivation of sectors with growth potential and opportunities for
South African small and medium enterprises, focusing on both goods and services
7. Identification of major Tanzanian importers, retailers, businesses and where they
source goods and services
8. Identification of relevant legal and regulatory requirements for importation of products
and services in Tanzania
9. Identification of relevant contacts and institutions to assist in trade facilitation and
investment opportunities
10. Report incorporating the above information

DELIVERABLES
A final report should be submitted to SAIBL no later than April 23 2007. The report will include
information and analysis on opportunities for South African HDEs to export goods and services,
contact details for Tanzanian companies and businesses for matchmaking opportunities, and
legal and regulatory requirements for importation of identified goods and services.

LEVEL OF EFFORT
The Local Consultant will have a level of effort of 20 working days. Key qualifications should
include trade and export development, trade facilitation, market research and analysis. The Consultant
should have a good network in the private and public sector.

INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT
The Local Consultant will have the support of the SAIBL Regional Trade Specialist and the
SAIBL Trade Development Specialist based in Johannesburg. This will include a full briefing on
SAIBL and existing clients ready for export.
