Posted on : Monday, 14th August 2017
The automobile industry in Tanzania is growing, supported by growing incomes, improving urban infrastructure and the supply of cost-effective vehicles by Asian manufacturers. This sector of Tanzania gives ample opportunities to other countries to enter the market.
There has been strong prediction that there will be growth close to 3% per annum in vehicle sales in Tanzania over the period of 2018. As per the statistics of the Tanzania Automobile Association (TMA), on an average Tanzanians buy around 4,500 light vehicles.
Keeping the Tanzanian auto sector relevant to emerging realities facing carmakers – ranging from a nascent revival in demand to leveraging technology for innovation and tackling environmental concerns – is the backdrop against which the 20th AutoExpo Tanzania 2017 is being organized this year.
