The transport and logistics industry in Africa is one of the most challenging business environments to operate in. Constantly evolving, African transport and logistics are driven to change not only by increased competition and obligatory adherence to changing regulatory requirements but also by the opening of borders and the erosion of trade barriers. Requiring continuous monitoring and attention, businesses in this industry are increasingly benefitting from the impact of digital transformation as it continues to drive change and greater returns.

The Zambian logistics sector is primed to increase revenue if they can grab opportunities that come from digital transformation. As a land-locked country, rich in natural resources, with good road infrastructure, it is not surprising that the number of freight management and transportation businesses is growing.
