Tanzania has increased its use of the Dar es Salaam port following major infrastructure upgrades, with the Democratic Republic of the Congo emerging as the top user. Government investments and private partnerships reduced vessel turnaround time, raised cargo volumes, and increased customs revenue. In the 2024/2025 financial year, Tanzanian ports handled 27.7 million tonnes of cargo, a 17% increase, while improvements created 764 direct jobs and strengthened regional trade.
