2.3 Humanitarian Info

Zimbabwe World Food Programme Information

Zimbabwe UN Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs

Zimbabwe is a low-income, food-deficit country, ranked 172 out of 186 countries according to

the 2013 UNDP Human Development Index. According to the Zimbabwe National Statistics

Agency (ZIMSTAT) some 62.6 percent of the population live below the national poverty line (on

less than US$ 1.25 per day). Some 30 percent of the rural poor are considered to be ‘food poor'

or ‘extremely poor'. Although the prevalence of HIV has been reduced, it still remains high with

nearly 13.7 percent of adults (approximately 1.5 million) living with HIV. Of these, less than half

(670,000) received anti-retroviral treatment (ART) as of December 2013. Furthermore, 68

percent of tuberculosis (TB) carriers test positive for HIV – and many of these also suffer from

malnutrition due to food insecurity. Meanwhile, rural poverty has increased from 63 percent in

2003 to 76 percent in 2014. Most households in the rural areas are net food buyers: they do not

(for a number of reasons) produce enough food to meet their needs through to the next harvest

season. Consequently, they rely on markets and other non-farm sources such as casual labour

to bridge the food gap to the next season. As such, a number of people in rural areas will

struggle to meet their daily food needs.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 15

Zimbabwe's economy depends heavily on its mining and agriculture sectors. Following a

decade of contraction from 1998 to 2008, the economy recorded real growth of more than 10%

per year in 2010-13, before slowing to roughly 3% in 2014 due to poor harvests, low diamond

revenues, and decreased investment. Infrastructure and regulatory deficiencies, a poor

investment climate, a large public and external debt burden, and extremely high government

wage expenses impede the country’s economic performance. Until early 2009, the Reserve

Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) routinely printed money to fund the budget deficit, causing

hyperinflation. Dollarization in early 2009 - which allowed currencies such as the Botswana

pula, the South Africa rand, and the US dollar to be used locally - ended hyperinflation and

reduced inflation below 10% per year, but exposed structural weaknesses that inhibit broad-

based growth. The RBZ reintroduced coins denominated in local currency in December 2014,

more than five years after the Zimbabwe dollar was taken out of circulation. In January 2015,

as part of the government’s effort to boost trade and attract foreign investment, the RBZ

announced that the Chinese yen, Indian rupee, Australian dollar, and Japanese yen would be

accepted as legal tender in Zimbabwe.

2.5 1.1 Zimbabwe Humanitarian Background

 

In recent years, food production in Zimbabwe has been devastated by a number of factors

including natural disasters and economic and political instability. Recurrent drought, a series of

poor harvests, high unemployment (estimated at more than 60%), restructuring of the

agriculture sector and a high HIV/AIDS prevalence rate – at 14.7 per cent, the fifth highest in

the world - have all contributed to increasing levels of vulnerability and acute food insecurity

since 2001. This situation has necessitated large-scale humanitarian food relief operations in

the country.

The 2016 Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment  Committee (ZimVAC) rural livelihoods

assessment showed the impact of the drought is having on acute and chronic malnutrition in

the country. Rural food insecurity during the peak hunger period from January to March 2017 is

Zimbabwe

Version 22 16

projected to reach 42 percent or 4.1 million people which is the highest rural food insecurity

prevalence since 2009. The economy is currently faced with a diverse range of macro-

economic and financial challenges, which include low economic growth. Growth in 2016 is now

anticipated at below 1% from an initial target of 2.7% mainly resulting from the impact of the El-

Nino induced drought on the agricultural sector; Depressed international commodity prices;

Liquidity constraints and cash shortages in part due to deteriorating trade balance arising from

low export receipts, high levels of imports and low levels of foreign direct investment. The

adverse macro-economic environment has also been characterised by leakages of foreign

currency through externalization, underpricing of exports, mineral smuggling and other illicit

flows. There has been poor performance of public entities which control more than 70% of

public infrastructure services. Infrastructural services continue to deteriorate. Most of the

country’s revenue is absorbed to paying recurrent expenditure including public service

establishment.

Zimbabwe is a low-income, food-deficit country and is ranked 172 out of 186 countries

according to the . Currently, 72 percent of the  2013 UNDP Human Development Indexpopulation lives below the national poverty line (less than US $1.25 per day). Some 30 percent

of the rural poor are considered to be ‘food poor’ or ‘extremely poor.’ Although the prevalence

of HIV has been reduced, it still remains high with nearly 15 percent of adults living with HIV –

many of whom also suffer from malnutrition due to food insecurity.

Drier than average conditions have affected parts of southern Zimbabwe. The delayed onset of

the season combined with a poor mid-season rainfall pattern at critical stages of maize

development, have led to unfavourable expectations for regional maize production. The

Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC), led by the Government with support

various partners and WFP, recently published the 2015 Rural Livelihoods Assessment report.

According to the report, some 1.5 million people - 16 percent of the rural population - will have

insufficient means to meet their minimum food needs during the 2015-16 lean season, that

period prior to the next harvest when domestic food stocks tend to become depleted. This

represents a 164 per cent increase on the numbers of food insecure people during 2013-14

though it is only a little above the five-year average for Zimbabwe. 

Despite this decrease, food and nutrition security remains fragile and subject to natural and

economic shocks in Zimbabwe, with chronic and persistent rates of undernourishment. One

third of Zimbabwe’s children are stunted, or short for their age. The country continues to face

economic stress which has implications on food security, especially for vulnerable groups in

rural areas. Due to deflation/disinflation, household incomes remain low and liquidity challenges

affect the demand for goods and services, especially for poor households. Barter is a common

form of exchange during lean periods. Where grain is used for such transactions, household

food stocks tend to get exhausted at a faster rate. Meanwhile, rural poverty has increased from

63 percent in 2003 to 76 percent in 2014. Most households in the rural areas are net food

buyers: they do not (for a number of reasons) produce enough food to meet their needs

through to the next harvest season. Consequently, they rely on markets and other non-farm

sources such as casual labour to bridge the food gap to the next season. As such, a number of

people in rural areas will struggle to meet their daily food needs.

In July 2015, WFP Zimbabwe and the Government of Zimbabwe launched a Zero Hunger

Strategic Review. This provides an overview of the food and nutrition security situation in the

country and establishes an understanding of the country’s demographics and socio- economic

context. It compares the provisions of the UN Secretary General’s global Zero Hunger

Challenge with the prevailing situation regarding food and nutrition security, and outlines the

causes of hunger in the country and presents the key drivers of food and nutrition security. It

aims to refocus attention on the critical issues needed to accelerate the attainment of zero

hunger in Zimbabwe.

2.5.2 Calamities and Seasonal Effects

Zimbabwe enjoys a temperate climate during the dry season. The cooler, drier months (May to

October) are characterized by warm sunny days and cold clear nights. It never snows, though

overnight frosts and freezing temperatures are not uncommon. The low veld and the Zambezi

Valley experience hotter and more humid temperatures, but in the winter there is very little

rainfall. Most of Zimbabwe’s rain falls in brief afternoon deluges and electrical storms in the

relatively humid and warmer months from November to April. Zimbabwe has the second

highest incidence of lightning strikes in the world. Although Zimbabwe lies wholly within the

Tropics, the normal tropical continental climate is considerably modified by altitude, especially

on the central plateau where temperatures are lower than at sea level in the same latitude. The

Eastern Highlands experience the lowest temperatures.

The year falls roughly into three seasons: a dry winter, covering the months from April to

August, with cool temperatures especially at night when frost is sometimes experienced; a hot

season with temperatures building up to a maximum in October or early November and a wet

season in which the main rains usually come around mid-November and continue until March.

The main rains are associated with the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). The ITCZ,

where the northerly and southerly air masses meet, follows the seasonal movements of the

overhead sun north and south of the Equator, hence the occurrence of the Zimbabwean wet

season during the southern summer. June is the coolest month and October is the warmest:

temperature variations correspond with height. Typically you cannot tell if there will be an El

Nino until the last month of December or first week in January.

Seasonal Effects on Transport

Seasonal Effects on Transport

Primary Road Transport Not affected N/A

Secondary Road Transport N/A November-March

Rail Transport Needs recapitalisation N/A

Air Transport Not affected N/A

Waterway Transport N/A N/A

The seasonal effects on transport are minimal in Zimbabwe. During heavy downpours

secondary roads can become locally impracticable for a short period of time. Transport can

temporarily be disrupted in the path of a cyclone or a tropical storm (January / February). Some

bridges were devastated in Manicaland as a result of the El Nino (1998) and Eline (2000)

cyclones. But otherwise transport operations inside and outside Zimbabwe are not greatly

affected by the seasons. Severe rains may disrupt the road transport operations along the

Beira corridor (Pungwe Riverand Pungwe Plains). Long and heavy rains in Mozambique also

affect the Limpopo railway line. Roads and railways normally get busier during harvest time,

where there is an increase of traffic and heavy vehicles on the roads, but because of the

current economic situation and the low crop it is not foreseeable to see congestions on the

roads.

It is to be taken into consideration, though, that the decrease in the number of vehicles

available as a consequence of the economic crisis might in the long run become a problem

when contracting transporters. In fact, at the moment, considerable portions of transporters’

fleets are idle because of lack of business or difficulties in procuring fuel, which in the long run

might force them to reduce the number of vehicles and therefore impact availability of trucks,

with obvious impacts on transport costs as well.

2.5.3 Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response

Government

In light of the Zimbabwe hazard profile and disaster history, the Zimbabwe Department of Civil

Protection has been in the forefront of government efforts to manage disaster risk in all the

spheres of government. In its effort, the Government of Zimbabwe is working in collaboration

with the humanitarian community in-country. The overall objective of the Inter-Agency

Contingency Plan is to support the Government of Zimbabwe (GoZ) in mounting a timely and

coordinated preparedness and response to identified hazards in order to minimize potential

humanitarian consequences. The Government of Zimbabwe (GoZ) leads disaster and

emergency preparedness and response and the humanitarian community complements

government efforts. There is a Disaster Management Act in place and legislatively stipulates

authority and powers for the declaration of emergency or state of disaster. NGO’s can be co-

opted depending on the services they offer and the priority of the humanitarian issue.

Governments and humanitarian organisations have invested time and financial resources in

contingency planning but the challenge has been in establishing conclusive evidence of the

relation between contingency planning and effective response. In its fulfillment of the primary

role of protecting its citizens’ lives during disasters, Government through the Ministry of Local

Government, Rural and Urban Planning’s Department of Civil Protection (DCP), Government

ministries, UN Agencies and various Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), developed a

National Contingency Plan that is updated annually to reflect the evolving hazard profile of the

country. This plan is part of an important disaster preparedness process which allows

Government and its partners to plan for disasters with the aim of minimizing damage to

property and loss of life.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 22

Zimbabwe has capacities which include the availability of legal frame works and instruments.

Of note is the reform of the Disaster Risk Management (DRM) framework guided by the Hyogo

Framework for Action 2005-2015. Another notable capacity is the existence of a functional

national platform with a wide cross sectional representation from Government, UN agencies as

well as local and international NGOs. This is complemented by relatively functional Civil

Protection Committees both at Provincial and District levels. The National Platform, in form of

the National Civil Protection Committee meets regularly to create consensus on issues that

require intervention. In addition, there is a dedicated Government department, the Department

of Civil Protection under the Ministry of Local Government, Rural and Urban Development,

which has the overall responsibility of disaster risk management. Partners such as the UN

System and NGOs (local and international) have been providing emergency preparedness and

response (EPR), assessments and early recovery assistance to the Government of Zimbabwe.

Humanitarian Community

After the inauguration of the Government of National Unity (GNU) the political and economical

situation in Zimbabwe stabilized compared to most of 2008. The introduction of a multi-currency

system practically led to a halt in inflation, although this has not yet substantially improved the

standard of living of most Zimbabweans. Political violence, which characterized much of 2008,

has largely come to a halt, while a process of national healing and reconciliation has started.

Humanitarian organisations and NGOs have more space to operate and bans were lifted.

The main GoZ departments involved within the cluster approach are the Ministry of Health and

Child Care, and the Ministry of Regional Integration and International Co-operation. The

principle of last resort has allowed those leading each cluster to come together when the

planned pipeline of aid cannot meet the demands of those affected hence the need for a

functional, predictable and coordinated response. The government has articulated the disaster

coordination structure, which is headed by the Inter-Ministerial committee, the Committee of

Permanent Secretaries (DYNAMO) and the Department of the Civil Protection. At the bottom of

the hierarchy are the technical committees, depending on the nature of the emergency at hand,

including the finance and logistics committees. On the humanitarian side, the HC/RC will

propose the activation of this plan in consultation with the IASC and the Government of

Zimbabwe’s Inter-Ministerial Committee.

The Emergency Response Fund for Zimbabwe was established as a pooled fund in 2006. It

was initially set up to meet the emergency needs of people affected by displacement but has

continued to be replenished by donors thereby facilitating response to emerging response

requirements in the country. Being a pooled fund of un-earmarked contributions from various

donors, the ERF operates with greater flexibility and speedier approval processes than

traditional funding mechanisms. The guiding principles of the fund is to allow timely emergency

and/or gap filling responses through consultative and collaborative approval processes by the

Zimbabwe

Version 22 23

representatives of key stakeholders from UN agencies and local and international NGOs

participating in the Advisory Board. The Advisory Board is chaired by the UN Humanitarian

Coordinator. Members are drawn from two UN Agencies, IOM and two NGO (national and

international representatives). OCHA Zimbabwe provides secretariat support to the

management of the fund while clusters are consulted for technical inputs.

Soon after the signing of the 15 September 2008 Global Political Agreement (GPA) that paved

the way for the formation of a Government of National Unity (GNU) the ERF was used to

provide short term funds in five key sectors; WASH, health, education, protection and

agriculture. This was to give implementing agencies an opportunity to kick-start or intensify

some humanitarian activities as they fundraised for more resources. Implementation period for

projects is limited up to a maximum of 6 months and the funding can be made up to US

$250,000 per project. Each implementing agency can have up to three active projects at a time.

The applicant agencies are encouraged to consult relevant partners in the cluster/working

group, geographical areas and local communities during development of the intervention. For

the final round of consultation, the Advisory Board is normally given 48 hours to make a

recommendation to the Humanitarian Coordinator. Once the approval process is completed, an

agreement is entered between the implementing partner and the Humanitarian Coordinator,

after which OCHA requests for the funds to be released directly to the implementing agency

from the Geneva based account.

Structures Presently in place:

Operational Governmental decentralized structures under the Ministry of Local

Government and Urban Development (MLGUD) ensures the liaison between local and

2.6 1.2 Zimbabwe Regulatory Departments & Quality Control

There are several governmental organisations empowered in regulatory activities that guide the

conduct and activities of all entities in Zimbabwe. For purposes of the LCA, the regulatory

organisations highlighted herein are those that are in line with humanitarian activities and their

mandates range in line with their mandates. Such regulatory bodies include customs & tax

revenue, civil protection department, control & quality assurance, food quality, shipment

inspections, regional organisations such as trade agreements to be adhered to and many more

as listed in the attached document: Additional Zimbabwe Regulatory Departments Information

Governments and humanitarian organisations have invested time and financial resources in

contingency planning but the challenge has been in establishing conclusive evidence of the

relation between contingency planning and effective response. In its fulfilment of the primary

role of protecting its citizens’ life during disasters, Government through the Ministry of Local

Government, Rural and Urban Planning’s Department of Civil Protection (DCP), Government

ministries, UN Agencies and various Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), developed a

Zimbabwe

Version 22 25

National Contingency Plan that is updated annually to reflect the evolving hazard profile of the

country. This plan is part of an important disaster preparedness process which allows

Government and its partners to plan for disasters with the aim of minimizing damage to

property and loss of life.

Zimbabwe has capacities which include the availability of legal frame works and instruments.

Of note is the reform of the Disaster Risk Management (DRM) framework guided by the Hyogo

Framework for Action 2005-2015. Another notable capacity is the existence of a functional

national platform with a wide cross sectional representation from Government, UN agencies as

well as local and international NGOs. This is complemented by relatively functional Civil

Protection Committees both at Provincial and District levels. The National Platform, in form of

the National Civil Protection Committee meets regularly to create consensus on issues that

require intervention. In addition, there is a dedicated Government department, the Department

of Civil Protection under the Ministry of Local Government, Rural and Urban Development,

which has the overall responsibility of disaster risk management. Partners such as the UN

System and NGOs (local and international) have been providing emergency preparedness and

response (EPR), assessments and early recovery assistance to the Government of Zimbabwe.

Food control is even more important for Zimbabwe with an agro-based economy providing

livelihood for over 70% of the population. WHO, FAO and WTO have produced guidelines and

recommendations for strengthening national food control systems. The major components of a

food control system, 

1. Policy, planning, legislation and standards settings,

2. Inspection/monitoring and surveillance,

3. Scientific testing and analysis,

4. Compliance and intervention, must be connected, work as one holistic system with all its

operations based on sound scientific information.

The monitoring and surveillance through inspections/sampling programmes remain under

various ministries’ departments and agencies. The major players are ministries of 1. Health, 2.

Agriculture, 3. Industry and Trade, and 4. Local Governments 5. The Standards Association of

Zimbabwe.

The Ministry of Health and Child Welfare is the overall regulatory agency through the

Environmental Health Officers at Provincial, District and Ward levels. They carry out

inspections and sampling activities responding to any food safety challenges and out-breaks.

They are the vigilante’s checking on adherences to legislation. This involves monitoring of food

at retail outlets, abattoirs in their areas. They can, if necessary confiscate or destroy unsafe

food as required by legislation. The Ministry’s environmental health officers are responsible for

ensuring that all food items imported into the country meet the safety standards and regulations

at ports of entry.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 26

The Ministry Responsible for Agriculture is charged with food safety from the farming processes

to harvesting. In the case where food is consumed after harvest without any further processing,

this Ministry ensures that it is safe for consumption as it is, or after cooking. For food needing

further processing, however, safety concerns end at delivery to the processors/manufacturers

etc. The Ministry is responsible for crop and meat safety from farming. The Agricultural

Research and Extension Services (AREX) deals with safety of crops while the Veterinary

Services Department (VSD) deals with safety of animal products i.e. meat, poultry, fish and

milk. This department, through its meat hygiene units, inspects and certifies abattoirs.

The Ministry Responsible for Industry and Trade deals with food exports/imports and food trade

in general through their food and beverage section. It issues import/export licenses and

generally promotes food trade. It is responsible for trade measures and voluntary standards

through the Standards Association of Zimbabwe. The Ministry bases its certification processes

for exports etc. on laboratory evaluation and analysis of products. Some Local Authorities such

as Harare, Bulawayo, Mutare, Gweru and Masvingo have their own inspection systems. Under

the Food and Food Standards Act, they are delegated authority to be food inspectors. Besides

enforcing the national food standards, they have by-laws for their areas of operation, which

must not conflict with the national laws. The Standards Association of Zimbabwe (SAZ) has a

standards certification system for its members.  SAZ monitors its members through inspections

and audits. Some private food concerns have quality control programmes, which involve self-

monitoring.

2.6.1 Scientific Testing and Analysis

The Government Analyst Laboratory is the main Ministry of Health food control testing and

analysis facility.  It analyses samples submitted by the Ministry’s Environmental Health Officers

nationwide as well as from other government departments, local authorities and private sector.

Public health laboratories at various hospitals particularly with regards to microbiological

analysis complement the Government Analyst services. In addition, certain Local Authorities

such as Harare, Bulawayo, Masvingo, have laboratory facilities capable of some analytical

services. Under the Ministry responsible for Agriculture there are the Research and Specialist

Service Laboratory and the Veterinary Services Laboratory with complementary services

provided by the Dairy Services Laboratory. Non-governmental institution that provide food

analysis include SAZ (quite extensive capacity), Kutsaga Tobacco Research and private

concerns Laboratories.

2.6.2 Compliance and Interventions

 Each of the regulatory service agencies provide the compliance and intervention administration

programmes. These act as ‘mini – food control’ systems.  In the Ministry of Health and CW this

is done primarily by the Provincial Medical Directors’ office involving the concerned districts

(and port Health if applicable) and the Government Analyst Laboratory. The Disease Control

Unit is involved in all cases of national interventions to crises. Ordinarily the PMD’s

Zimbabwe

Version 22 27

environmental health officers with the support of GA are sufficient. In the Ministry responsible

for Agriculture, the administration of compliance and intervention programmes are under AREX

or the Veterinary Services depending on whether it is plant or animal related. It should be noted

that there are in fact several ‘food regulatory systems’ i.e. 8 in the Ministry of Health, 16

Ministry of Agriculture, and more than 4 local authorities. These in practice act as independent

entities except when there is a national challenge. There are no clear ties between the various

administrative structures and their operations.

Transit Regime

The movement of goods in transit is carried out when cargo is either required to move in bond

to a specified bonded store within the country importing the product, or if the cargo is destined

for another country whereby the product has to cross numerous borders / countries to reach the

final destination. (i.e. product sourced in South Africa but destined for Zambia).The first

instance of cargo being bonded does not affect aid organisations as generally aid cargo is

exempt from duty & taxes. Moving such cargo in bond would be ineffective and would only

incur further clearing & warehousing costs. The second scenario of cargo having to move

through numerous countries to reach destination would again not effect aid agencies as

Zimbabwe

Version 22 34

generally the forwarder or transporters will incur the risk & cost of engaging a clearing agent to

arrange the transit movement from entry border to exit border. These costs would be included

in the transporters / Forwarder freight costs. The transit procedure is normally carried out by a

registered clearing agent who has a bond facility to carry the value of the expected duties to be

paid should the goods be cleared normally for consumption in the country being transited. WFP

Zimbabwe offices opt for direct imports into its warehouses.

3 2 Zimbabwe Logistics Infrastructure

 

The ease of moving goods and services across borders is an important indicator of the quality

of trade and transport facilitation in a country. The World Bank's list of global trading across

borders puts Zimbabwe at 172 out of 183 countries. (Mozambique is the best performing SADC

country on that list at 132, followed by South Africa at 144, Botswana at 150, Zambia 153 and

Malawi 164.) Zimbabwe features on the Logistics Performance Index (LPI) of the World Bank

scoring 2.25 out of a possible score of 5 based on six key trade dimensions, which include

efficiency of the clearing process by border control agencies and customs, quality of trade and

transport related infrastructure, ease of arranging competitively priced shipments, competence

and quality of logistics services and ability to track and trace consignments. The country’s LPI

should improve with the introduction of the ASYCUDA World, a web based customs clearing

module and pre-clearance which would see an efficient movement of cargo at the border posts.

Consultations are underway to establish more One Stop Border Posts and computerization of

trade licenses and permits in order to address the problem of border delays.

The Ministry of Transport, Communication and Infrastructural Development, a Zimbabwe

government ministry, is responsible for all the aspects related to the management of transport,

communications, and meteorological and seismological infrastructure and services within the

country. The Ministry oversees the following parastatal organisms:

National Railways of Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe United Passenger Company (ZUPCO)

Air Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe National Roads Authority

Meteorological department

The three main transport modes that serve the Zimbabwean economy are roads, railways, and

aviation. Inland water transport is limited and takes place mainly in man-made water bodies

such as Lake Kariba. Zimbabwe’s road network was once considered among the best in Africa

and it was a signicant contributor to the growth of the Zimbabwe economy. The provision and

upkeep of the network was backed by intensive research, good experience, and the existence

of appropriate technical standards and skills in the country. The railway network connects

Zimbabwe with all its four neighbours and beyond. It is a major factor in trade and economic

growth within the region. Within Zimbabwe, it connects all major mining areas, heavy industrial

centres as well as the major agricultural collection centres and provides much of the transport

of mineral exports to seaports in South Africa.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 36

Zimbabwe has rail network of 2,583 km, all of which is narrow gauge. The use of rail for the

transport of freight also improves road safety and reduces road damage and congestion. The

aviation industry provides international and local air transportation links, with Harare

International Airport as the main hub. The other important airports are Joshua Nkomo

International Airport in Bulawayo, Victoria Falls, and Buffalo Range. In addition, more than 200

airports and aerodromes of diverse standards and capacities are scattered throughout the

country. The airports are particularly important for the country’s tourism industry. Air transport

also provides essential services to the mining industry in Zimbabwe with links between Harare

and the major mining provinces. The World Bank report notes that almost 70,000 km of roads,

equivalent to about 80% of the total network, is in need of rehabilitation. Zimbabwe has a total

road network of roughly 100,000 km. The interventions to be implemented should include

repairing the regional corridors which have a total length of 2,307 km. About 5% of these

corridors are in poor condition and about 10% are in fair condition, giving a total length of 345

km of regional corridors that need repair. The repair work includes pot-hole patching, filling of

cracks, edge repairs, replacement of road signs, etc. The second intervention would be to

repair urban roads as 25% of the network is in poor condition. The government should also

repair paved primary and secondary roads as well as maintain the unpaved secondary roads. It

is on record that in the medium to long term, government should speed up the dualisation of

major truck roads to ensure that road expansion keeps pace with increasing traffic density. The

responsible Authorities for roads are Department of Roads, Urban councils, District

Development Fund and Rural district Councils. 

For information on logistics rehabilitation in Zimbabwe, please see the following link: Transport

World Africa

 

Transport SectorThe transport sector in Zimbabwe comprises five modes namely, road, rail, aviation, inland

water and pipeline transport. The road network, excluding urban roads, totals 76,241 km (of

which 9,256 km or 12.1% are bitumen surfaced). The Zimbabwe National Roads Administration

(ZINARA), is responsible for managing the Road Fund and disbursing to the following road

authorities:

Department of Roads in the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure Development-

responsible for trunk roads; 

Rural District and Urban Councils-responsible for urban roads; and

District Development Fund-responsible for rural roads. 

Zimbabwe

Version 22 37

The rail network comprises a total 3,100 km of Cape Gauge standard (1,067 mm) of which 340

km between Beitbridge and Bulawayo, built under a Build Operate and Transfer (BOT)

arrangement, is privately owned and operated by the Beitbridge-Bulawayo (BBR) Railway

Company. This company provides transport services to passengers, business and the mining

industry. The remaining 2,760 km of rail is managed by the Government owned National

Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) providing passenger and freight transport services.

The aviation sub-sector comprises ten airports, three of which are international airports

including Harare, Bulawayo and Victoria Falls. The other airports are located at Kariba,

Masvingo, Buffalo Range, Mutare, Gweru, Beitbridge and Charles Prince. The ten airports are

managed by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). With respect to pipeline transport, Zimbabwe

through the National Oil Infrastructure Company (NOIC) controls 21 km of the 287 km oil

pipeline running from the Beira port in Mozambique to the Feruka Oil Refinery in Zimbabwe.

Water transport is dominated by waterborne tourism, leisure activities, commercial and small

scale fishing and sports on the Kariba Dam and the Zambezi River. There is, however, potential

for water transport.

Zimbabwe is a land-locked country and national and regional transport connectivity is a

necessary condition for promoting economic activity and cross border trade. The general

condition of the transport infrastructure has deteriorated due to inadequate funding for regular

maintenance. Government is putting emphasis on rural infrastructure while Public-Private-

Partnership ventures (PPPs) are used for major infrastructure development projects. For

example, the rehabilitation and maintenance of major trunk roads commenced in 2009 and is

currently on-going through the financial resources generated from tolling of the most trafficked

road sections. Also, the Beitbridge-Bulawayo Rail Link was constructed on a BOT agreement

with the private sector. (Source: ) TradeMark Southern Africa

Zimbabwe Airports

 

In 1999, the Government of Zimbabwe established the Supervising authority Civil Aviation

(CAAZ) through the Civil Aviation Act of 1998. The CAAZ is the main Authority of Zimbabwe

provider of civil aviation services, serving as the regulator of the industry, managing the civil

aviation infrastructure, including the main airports, and providing airspace management

services.

The CAAZ owns and manages eleven airports in Zimbabwe. The original design capacity of the

various terminals was sufficient for up to 3.8 million passengers a year. Harare is the main hub,

but its operations and that of the other major airports have been affected by the poor

performance of the economy. Civil aviation infrastructure in Zimbabwe is in need of

rehabilitation and regular maintenance. A particular concern is air traffic control and safety, as

equipment is old and in need of replacement. Closely related to traffic surveillance is the

capability for aircraft communication to and from the ground.

The entire airspace of Zimbabwe has not been covered by existing facilities, and what does

exist is deficient. The airspace surveillance equipment is not well maintained, and while repairs

have been carried out at Harare, work on the system at Joshua Nkomo International Airport

(Bulawayo) is incomplete. Shortcomings in surveillance also raise concerns about search and

rescue operations. Weather installations are inadequate and broadband infrastructure is not

available at most airports.

As a result of the economic problems of the past decade and sharp decline in tourism activity in

Zimbabwe, international and domestic aircraft movements have declined sharply. The former

declined from about 31,000 in 1999 to about 16,000 in 2009. The decline in domestic

movements was even greater, owing to the decline in domestic travel by tourists and the

adverse effect of the domestic economic difficulties. The large contraction in demand for air

services to and from Zimbabwe has contributed to a sharp reduction in the number of

international airlines that service the Zimbabwe market.

During 1997-2007 more than twenty scheduled airlines discontinued services in Zimbabwe,

including major carriers such as Air France (1997), KLM (1998), Lufthansa (2000), Swiss Air

(2000), and British Airways (2007). At present, 13 airlines operate services to and from

Zimbabwe. These include , which is the primary domestic carrier owned by the Air Zimbabwe

Government, Kenya Airways, Air Malawi, Botswana Airline, , South South African Airways

African Airlink, Comair (which is a franchise partner with British Airways), Air Namibia,

Emirates, Egyptian, Zambezi Airline, Ethiopian Airlines, Angola Airlines and Fly Africa (budget

airline).

Zimbabwe

Version 22 42

All aircrafts carrying cargo must land only at designated airports. Air freight will be cleared at

the airport of first landing in Zimbabwe provided such airport is a designated customs airport. If

the airport of destination is not a designated airport, the aircraft operator must take special

arrangements for clearance of the freight before flying to the destination.

The dropping or spraying of objects or other substances out of or from the aircraft is prohibited.

This does not apply to ballast in the form of water or fine sand, fuel tow ropes, tow banners or

similar objects if dropped or discharged at places where no danger to persons or property exist.

The authority may grant exemption to the introduction if no danger to persons or property

exists.

In accordance with article 19 of the International Sanitary regulations adopted by the World

Health Organisation, the following are designed sanitary airports:

Harare/Harare Airport

Bulawayo/Joshua Mquabuko Nkomo Airport

Key airport information may also be found at . World Aero Data

Private aircraft operating into an airport in Zimbabwe and carrying seven passengers and below

do not require prior permission but should submit normal ATC flight plan only. Private aircraft

wishing to over fly Zimbabwean airspace are however are required to have prior permission

and must submit an application to the CAAZ.

The authority establishes prohibited areas and restricted areas, if necessary, for the prevention

of danger to public safety or order especially for the safety of air traffic. These areas are

published in the Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP)

At minor aerodromes without ATC, inspections are often irregular and pivots must, in addition

to obtaining the latest serviceability, examine the landing area from the air before attempting to

land. Generally no facilities are provided.

3.2.2 2.2.1 Zimbabwe Harare International Airport

Harare International Airport is an international airport in Harare, Zimbabwe. It is the largest

airport in the country and serves as the base of Air Zimbabwe. The airport is operated by the

. The International Terminal at Harare International Airport Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe

was opened in 2000 but the airport has not met the optimum operating capacity since. It is a

beautiful building, drawing architectural influence from the ancient buildings of Great

Zimbabwe, and finished in local materials such as black granite, etc. Due to the current

economic situation, there are fewer commercial flights in and out-bound.

This is a joint Military and Civilian Airport. The airport's runway, at 4,725 metres (15,502 ft), is

currently one of the longest in Africa. It is longer than all of the runways at OR Tambo

in Johannesburg, South Africa, with the longest runway at OR Tambo International Airport

measuring 4,418 metres (14,495 ft). The reason for this is that both are " " airports hot and high

Zimbabwe

Version 22 44

requiring long take-off runs. The Harare International airport is currently refurbishing and

lengthening the current runway which will result in it being the longest runaway in Africa at over

5,000 metres (16,000 ft). (Source: ) The runway is used by both the civilian The Africa Report

airport and the Air Force of Zimbabwe whose base is on the southern side of the runway.

Airport Infrastructure Details

Harare International is fully compliant with international standards and has the capacity to

handle regional traffic should it be required.

The new International Terminal can handle up to 3 million passengers per year. The volume

could be increased if the African Open Skies (Yamasukp Agreement) policy could be used

effectively as currently a number of bi-lateral agreements are in the works to allow fellow

African nations and Zimbabwe to utilize the facilities in each other’s countries.

National Handling Services (NHS) is currently offering a 6 month free operating service to any

new airlines starting up in Zimbabwe. The best year in terms of performance was 1997 when

1,355,240 passengers and 41,450 aircraft passed through Harare International. 2009 was the

worst economic year ever recorded for the airport in every area. The person in charge is Mr.

Waniwa (+263773225404).

3.3 2.3 Zimbabwe Road Network

Zimbabwe

Version 22 63

Zimbabwe Roads

Zimbabwe

Version 22 64

Zimbabwe Roads

Road transport is the dominant means of transport in Zimbabwe. Most of the traffic and trade

(80% by volume) is transported by road. More than 70% of Zimbabwe regional trunk roads and

primary roads were built in the 1960's and early 70's and most of them have exceeded their 20

year design life. Lack of financial resources to reconstruct or rehabilitate the aging road network

and the unavailability of good quality gravel is compounding the problem.

Zimbabwean roads are managed, maintained and operated by the Zimbabwe National Road

Administration (ZINARA). ZINARA is responsible for managing the Road Fund and disbursing

to the following road authorities: Department of Roads in the Ministry of Transport and

Infrastructure Development, responsible for trunk roads; Rural District and Urban Councils,

responsible for urban roads; and the District Development Fund, responsible for rural roads.

The country's national highways are currently undergoing dualisation albeit at a slow pace due

to funding constraints. Large requirements in support of road maintenance have necessitated

the introduction of toll gate fees to complement the limited national budget resources. The

introduction of toll fees has provided additional resources for the maintenance and rehabilitation

of the Zimbabwean road network. Paved roads link the major urban and industrial centres, but

the condition of urban roads and the unpaved rural road network has deteriorated significantly

over the years for lack of maintenance.

The country has a lot of haulage trucks that are readily available for lease and use by UN,

NGOs, the private sector as well as government. WFP and partners have databases for such

service providers. Seasonal demands and supply variations have little effects on the transport

rates. Fuel price hike has a knock on effect on the transport charges.

There are 88,100 km of classied roads in Zimbabwe, 17,400 km of which are paved. About 5%

of the network is classied as primary roads and has some of the most trafcked arterials that link

Zimbabwe with its neighbours. A portion of the Pan-Africa Highway passes through Zimbabwe.

This part of the road network plays a major role in the movement of the country’s imports and

exports as well as transit freight.

Some 14% of the network is classied as secondary roads that link the main economic canters

within the country, enabling internal movement of people and goods. The primary and

secondary roads are collectively referred to as the trunk road system; they carry over 70% of

the vehicular trafc (measured in vehicle kilometres) and they are managed by the Department

of Roads (DoR). A little more than 70% of the network is made up of tertiary feeder and access

roads that link rural areas to the secondary road network. These are managed by the District

Development Fund (DDF) and by the District Councils (DC).

The tertiary access roads, together with the unclassied tracks, typically with trafc volumes

below 50 vehicles per day, provide for the intra-rural access movements. They link rural

communities to social economic amenities, such as schools, health centres, and markets, and

enable government services to reach rural areas. The remaining 9% of the network are urban

roads managed by urban councils. The road density in Zimbabwe is about 0.23 km per square

km. This is high compared with many developing countries; it is comparable to that of the high

income, non-OECD countries and lower middle-income countries. Only OECD countries have a

substantially higher road density than Zimbabwe.

The implication is that a relatively high proportion of the population has access to the road

network of the country. Moreover, Zimbabwe has a very substantial road network relative to its

gross domestic product (GDP). The replacement value of the road network asset is estimated

at about $10 billion, equivalent to almost three times the current level of GDP. This ratio is high

in comparison with many developing countries, and it gives some insight into the current large

economic burden of maintaining the road network.

The Department of National Parks and Ministry of Lands have roads within their jurisdiction but

these are considered as private since they are not declared roads.

The Department of Roads design surfaced roads for a 20 year Design Life; however, many

roads have outlived their design life. The Department of Roads classifies its roads by surface

type, by estimated traffic during its design life and use. By surface type the following classes

apply:

Wide Mat Surfaced Shoulders (WMSS) 12 m surfacing width with 12 m formation width

Wide Mart Gravel Shoulders (WMGS) 10 m surfacing width with 12 m formation width

Narrow Mart (NM) 7 m surfacing width with 10 m formation width

Zimbabwe

Version 22 70

Gravel (GR) no surfacing with 8 m formation width

The other type of classification is by Estimated Traffic based on Equivalent Standard Axles

of  10 tons per axle during the 20-year design life of the road:

Bridges

Bridges built within the primary road network are full operational throughout the year. One

bridge on the route between Chiredzi and Tanganda Holt crossing theSaveRiveris low enough

for water to flood the road in an event of a flash flood. Secondary roads regularly succumb to

flooding in the wet months. TheVictoria Falls, Birchenough, Otto Beit (Chirundu) and Beit

(Beitbridge) bridges have stood the test of time but are closed when there is a need for

maintenance. Security is very tight on all bridges by both the host country i.e.Zimbabweand the

neighbouring nations.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 73

Zimbabwe Railways

Zimbabwe

Version 22 74

Zimbabwe Railways

The rail system was built in the early 1900’s (part of it represents a segment of the Cape-Cairo

railway) and has not been revamped since. As a result of 100 years of use, a number of

sections are deteriorating with the track cracking and the foundations sagging. Lack of

maintenance has led to faulty points resulting in numerous derailments.  The National Railways

of Zimbabwe (NRZ) employed 17,000 staff in the late 1980’s, but today only 4-6000 employees

are on hand. Vandalism has paralyzed the communications systems and only shunting is

possible with the electric locomotives in urban areas – two way radios are used to facilitate train

movements between towns. The geographical spread of the network makes it almost

impossible to adequately protect and guard. Four million running tons is possible with the

current capacity but this is yet to be proven.

The NRZ is the parastatal railway of Zimbabwe. NRZ operates about 3,000 km of rail at the

1.067 m gauge providing passenger and freight services. NRZ has an important transit function

in the southern part of Africa and is well linked with neighbouring countries: toward the north, at

Victoria Falls, the system links to the Zambia Railways, crossing the Victoria Falls Bridge.

Towards the Indian Ocean, the system links to the Beira Railroad Corporation in Mozambique.

A second line towards Mozambique reaches Maputo. To the west, a connecting line link ups to

Botswana Railways to reach South Africa, eventually reaching Durban and Cape Town. A

direct line to South Africa is provided from Bulawayo by the Beitbridge Bulawayo Railway. The

electrified (25kV AC) 313 km Gweru-Harare section has been seriously vandalized and the

electric trains have since stopped operating.

The rail sector in Zimbabwe is in dire need of recapitalisation as the wagons, locomotives,

tracks and signalling systems are all antiquated and in need of replacement. The NRZ has also

suffered of the general decline of the country's economy. Neglect of maintenance, lacking

spare parts and overdue replacement of equipment have led to a situation where only part of

the railroad net is in good condition and equipment problems have led to reduced service.

Steam locomotives have been reintroduced since 2004 as coal is in relatively good supply,

while diesel must be imported and electricity shortages are common. Further, the company is

seriously indebted, making it impossible to solve this situation without external help. Goods

transport has declined, from 18 million tonnes in 1998 to 4 million tonnes in 2015.

The NRZ network is divided in three operational regions:

Eastern Region: Mutare – Harare - Chinhoyi axis, with a branch line to Bindura/

Shamva

Midlands Region: Somabhula – Harare with branch line to Masvingo and Redcliff

Southern Region: Beitbridge – Rutenga – Dabuka and Chicualacuala – Rutenga;

Dabuka – Mpopoma – Victoria Falls

3.6.2 Storage Used by Humanitarian Organizations

Major humanitarian organizations in Zimbabwe (UN and local and international NGOs) lease or

hire out warehouses from commercial service providers. This is a standard practice in

Zimbabwe for both humanitarian and commercial actors on the market. Main products stored

by humanitarian organisations and NGOs include food items and Non-food items used in the

development and rebuilding of communities and assets in the communities. Adequacy,  accessibility and availability of ancillary services is not a challenge in Zimbabwe, especially if

the warehouse is located in a town or city. Use of mobile storage facilities is also common

among the NGO, UN and international organisations operating in Zimbabwe. Collaboration and

space sharing is common with humanitarian actors and this has seen savings being realised by

organisations engaging such collaborations.

The WFP Zimbabwe operation has 2 operational warehouses and several extended delivery

points run by NGOs in partnership with WFP. The warehouses are strategically located to

service the most insecure and needy parts of the country. These warehouses are located in

Harare, and Bulawayo. The Mutare and Masvingo warehouses were closed in December 2014

due to scaling down of operations. The WFP warehousing and handling service providers are

normally given 12 to 24 months contracts through a competitive process of tendering.

3.6.3 Public Sector Storage

The Department of Civil Protection (DCP) has a staff complement of seven officers at the Head

Office. The operations of the Civil Protection Organization are multisectoral and interdisciplinary

in scope. Their mission is to coordinate and promote strategic planning for emergencies at the

individual, community, sectoral, local authority and national levels through regulatory

mechanisms in order to provide for and ensure optimal emergency preparedness and disaster

prevention in Zimbabwe. The Mandate of DCP covers overall coordination of all stakeholders

involved in disaster risk management, promotes preparedness planning, prompts emergency

response, early recovery and rehabilitation of affected elements and advocates for integration

of disaster risk reduction into development for sustainability.

The core functions of ensuring  the attainment of optimal capacity for disaster risk management

include:

Develop and maintain a disaster risk management framework in line with international

best practice

To strengthen coping capacities of the general public in relation to the country’s risk

profile

To develop mechanisms to address the identified gaps in the above functions

4.1.1 Overview:

Water Supply and Sanitation

Zimbabwe has limited water resources and generally depends on surface storage for its water

needs. All of Zimbabwe’s major rivers are shared with other members of the Southern Africa

Development Community (SADC). Zimbabwe cooperates actively with other members of SADC

on the shared management of the region’s river systems, and it is a signatory to the Shared

Water Course Systems Protocol, which provides the basis for management of the international

rivers in the SADC countries. It is also an active member of the Limpopo and Zambezi basin

communities which oversee joint management of these international rivers. The largest user of

water in Zimbabwe is the agricultural sector which accounts for about three-quarters of total

consumption, followed by the domestic sector which accounts for about 15 percent, and

industry uses the remaining 7 percent. It is a major national resource and, up until the

economic crisis of the previous decade, it was a crucial factor in Zimbabwe’s agricultural and

industrial competitive advantage in the region. Access to improved water and sanitation has a

direct positive impact on health in Zimbabwe, particularly among children. It also tends to raise

school attendance rates, particularly for girls, and the ability of children to learn. Improvements

in such areas in turn may have a high payoff in the long term in terms of productivity. In the

past decade, the water supply and sanitation systems in many urban and rural areas in

Zimbabwe have deteriorated and water dependent businesses have been adversely affected

by shortages. Sewage systems have experienced large-scale blockages, water treatment

plants are dysfunctional and lack chemicals and many distribution systems have fallen into

Zimbabwe

Version 22 92

disrepair. The failure of the electric power system to provide a regular and reliable supply of

electricity has compounded the problem of operating the water supply and sewerage systems

of urban areas and has contributed to collapse of the system.

Service Levels in ZimbabweIn the early 1990s, the coverage and quality of the basic infrastructure of Zimbabwe was

among the best in the region. In the past decade, the quality of these infrastructure assets has

deteriorated. As things now stand, the amount and quality of the country’s infrastructure is

roughly in line with that of other Southern African countries, but as with many other Sub-

Saharan countries, Zimbabwe now lags behind most other regional groupings in the world in

infrastructure service coverage and quality. Zimbabwe does have one of the largest road and

rail networks in the Southern Africa region. Although airport density is low and the related

infrastructure is dilapidated, railways, roads, and access to ports are somewhat better relative

to conditions in other countries in the region. Access to power, water, and sanitation services is

roughly comparable with other countries in the region. In the case of communications, mobile

phone densities were among the lowest in the region in 2006, but access has improved sharply

in the past few years. Use of the internet per 100 people, on the other hand, was the highest in

the region in 2006, perhaps in reaction to inadequate access to mobile voice services.

Warehouses and handling services for hire, purchase and/or lease are readily available to

commercial users and well as humanitarian organisations. In addition the government through

relevant ministries, the UN community, NGOs and multinational organisations have databases

for various service providers that can be shared upon request. However the tobacco buying

season brings in competition for space between March and August when farmers and buyers

are transacting.

The following sections contain information on the service and supply industries of Zimbabwe.

4.2 3.1 Zimbabwe Fuel

Zimbabwe once faced fuel crises for ten years as a result of economic failures and lack of

planning in the fuel sector. Private companies and individuals are able to import product

through DFI’s (direct fuel imports). The Government-run companies such as  and Petrotrade

Petroleum Marketing Company (PMC) regulate imports and direct all supplies through the

pipeline in order to maintain a working facility and control product taxes. Currently, fuel is easily

accessible at all filing stations across the country. The country has also started blending

imported petrol with the locally-produced ethanol, a project that has the potential to assist the

local petrol market.

4.2.2 Seasonal Variations 

Seasonal Variations

Are there national priorities in the availability of fuel, e.g. are there restrictions or priorities for the provision of fuel such as to the military? (Yes / No)

Yes

Is there a rationing system? (Yes / No) No

Can the local industry expand fuel supply to meet humanitarian needs? (Yes / No)

Yes

The UN, NGOs and development agencies face potential challenges and risks of fuel

shortages. However, the UN has put in place contingency measures where fuel can be

imported through fuel companies and distributed through Fuel Coupons and Smart Cards with

reputable fuel companies. These facilities can be used as a fall-back position in times of crisis. 

4.2.3 Fuel Transportation

Primarily, fuel is transported through a pipeline from Beira port in Mozambique, and by road

and rail as well from Beira port and from South Africa. Internal fuel transportation is mainly

done by road and a small portion being transported by rail.

Internal transportation of fuel products is carried out in fuel tankers. Many tankers are equipped

with either solid chassis hulls or skid tanks on flat beds but all meet the loading and offloading

requirements at source and final destination.

4.3 3.2 Zimbabwe Transporters

There are over three thousand transport companies operating within Zimbabwe. They include

commercial transport companies and own-account operators. The operators are registered with

the Zimbabwe Road Operators Association, and this is mandatory for all interested

transporters. The industry is slowly growing despite the prevailing economic challenges

affecting the country. The country is using multicurrency, since 2009, with the United States

Dollar dominating the market. The economy has been fairly stable since then, although the

issue of liquidity crunch slowly affecting the market. The transporters are providing their

services locally and regionally, depending with their capacities to service these routes. The

2008 economic difficulties forced a number of these operators to find work outside the country

and operate across the SADC region. Many of the larger companies have fared well through

these times but the smaller ones have struggled with upkeep and maintenance. The countries

road network has allowed a sound industry to develop and being the regional gateway through

transit routes transporters can cope with capacities and product types across the board.

Transport requirement for most shippers is seasonal. Most parts of the country require

transport services for the movement of tobacco, cotton and maize grain, especially soon after

the summer season. In some cases, transporters are engaged by some NGOs, usually during

the humanitarian food assistance. Very few transport users require transport services

Zimbabwe

Version 22 96

constantly throughout the year, e.g. mining and manufacturing. The current capacity is more

than enough to meet domestic requirements. Foreign operators can provide transport services,

but with specific conditions. Currently there are very little, if any, foreign operators in Zimbabwe.

The provides a link to some of the popular transport companies Transport in Zimbabwe website

in Zimbabwe.  There is no active transporter association in Zimbabwe. However, at the regional

level there is FESARTA that represents transporters from east and southern Africa. Some of

these transporters are based in Zimbabwe. FESARTA is able to provide valuable information

on the haulage and freight transport market in case of emergencies. The contact for FESARTA

is their Chairperson, Mr Mike Fitzmaurice and he is reachable via: .mike@fesarta.org

4.4 3.3 Zimbabwe Manual Labor Costs

Most workers in Zimbabwe are on fixed term contracts. According to labour law, fixed term

contracts expire at the end of the term specified. Employment may be terminated by mutual

agreement. The law states that if a contract of employment does not specify the date of

termination, other than a contract for casual work, seasonal work or for the performance of

some specific service, it is deemed to be an indefinite contract. This provision is, however,

conditional for casual workers. In accordance with section 20.1 of the Labour Act 2005, the

Minister has the authority to specify the minimum wage and benefits for any class of employees

in any undertaking or industry. Minimum wages are usually issued for industries not covered by

the employment councils. 

In accordance with section 12A of the Labour Act 2005, wages should be paid at regular

intervals on working days at or near the workplace. Remuneration payable in money should not

be paid to an employee by way of promissory notes, vouchers, coupons, liquor, etc.

Remuneration in kind shall not substitute entirely for remuneration in money. Also, the

aggregate amount of permissible deductions that may be made from the remuneration of any

employee in any pay interval shall not exceed 25% of the employee’s gross remuneration for

that interval. In accordance with section 17.3 C&J of the Labour Act, the Minister for Labour

may issue regulations regarding overtime, shift work and night work. Overtime may be

regulated under Collective Bargaining Agreement (section 74.3.E of Labour Act). No such

regulation could be located. Overtime rates are determined by the National Employment

Councils through a Collective Bargaining Agreement. The minimum overtime rate is 150% of

the normal wage rate when workers have to work beyond normal working hours, as determined

by the National Employment Councils. The standards working hours are 8.5 hours a day and

44 hours a week.

Zimbabwe

Version 22 97

Zimbabwe's economic crises prior to 2009 led to many of the country's most skilled and well

educated citizens to emigrate, leading to widespread labour shortages for managerial and

technical jobs. At the same time, the decade long severe contraction of the economy caused

formal sector employment to drop significantly.

4.5.1 Telecommunication Regulation

Four separate pieces of legislation have a bearing on the regulatory environment for the

Information and Communications Technology industry in Zimbabwe. These are the Postal and

Telecommunications Act of 2000, the Broadcasting Services Act of 2001, the Access to

Zimbabwe

Version 22 105

Information and Protection of Privacy Act of 2002, and the Interception of Communications Act

of 2007. At the present time, regulation of the ICT sector is divided between the Broadcasting

Authority of Zimbabwe (BAZ), the Postal and Telecommunications Authority (POTRAZ) and the

Media and Information Commission (MIC). POTRAZ is accountable to the Minister of Transport

and Communications, while BAZ and the MIC report to the Minister of Media, Information, and

Publicity. ( )Infrastructure and Growth in Zimbabwe

The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ) is the

industry regulator for telecommunications bearing responsibility for Economics(related to

telecommunications), tariffs, competition, technical services and postal & courier services.

POTRAZ has given mobile operators the go-ahead to offer additional services based on 3G

and VoIP technology under their current licences, reports local news source Business

Chronicle. In a statement, POTRAZ said it was amending the concessions of the operators so

that they could begin offering new services to their customers. In an interview with the

Chronicle, POTRAZ spokesperson Tawungana Ndoro said operators were still required to

submit applications to the regulator to increase the scope of the services that they provided.

Zimbabwe has three licensed GSM network operators, Econet Wireless, NetOne and Telecel;

the largest by subscriber base, Econet, has already begun deploying 3G W-CDMA technology.

Internet Service Providers (ISPs)

Zimbabwe is connected to the undersea global fibre-optic backbone through 4 different links

and consequently most major towns are now able to access high speed internet connectivity.

There are at least 2 major private and just as many parastatal fibre optic internet

providers.  Several more provide internet access through a combination of different

technologies while riding on the major providers for international uplinks. Most major

Zimbabwe

Version 22 107

businesses are connected to the internet using broadband fibre optic links in the office and also

offer their staff mobile internet through the 3/4G cellular network which offers reasonable

coverage in major cities. Cellular data rates though often quite high have a tendency to

fluctuate unpredictably.

Internet connectivity is stable in major cities where service providers ensure the availability of

backup power solutions, however, smaller locations are affected by load shedding and will

often lose connectivity for the duration of the power outage.

4.6 Overview

The food situation remains critical in Zimbabwe, with further shortages expected this year. The

government introduced the Grain Loan Scheme in 2011, as a way to help maize farmers

purchase implements. The scheme has been unsuccessful, however, due to the persistent

spells of drought experienced.

Maize meal (roller meal – unrefined), oil, Sugar, Salt and Sugar beans account for 80% of the

groceries in Zimbabwe. ‘The national staple is sadza, the white maize meal porridge most

locals are raised on. The second component of the Zimbabwean diet is meat (or ). Other nyamacommonly consumed types of food include rice, beans, lentils, peas, corn-soya blend,

sorghum, and bulgur wheat. Popular fish include bream and the white bait-like dried kapenta from the lake Kariba and trout from rivers and dams in the Eastern Highlands.

Local foods are between 15-20% more expensive than imported goods as their overheads at

the moment are so much more expensive. the government has not applied a price freeze for

basic goods. South Africa is the major trading partner with reference to the general food basket

and groceries. As it is oil and sugar are imported from Brazil and purchased through brokers at

Zimbabwe

Version 22 109

the port in Durban, South Africa. Sugar from Zimbabwe is exported for much need foreign

currency. However, prices fluctuate on the world market according to seasons and Malawi is

another major importer of sugar to this country. Zambia exports grain to Zimbabwe as they

have a surplus of grain. South Africa also exports maize meal to Zimbabwe in large quantities

especially to the southern parts of the country because of their proximity. Olivine industries

have resumed operations but soap is still imported, which is indicative of the lack of foreign

currency across the country. Smaller importers like Kappjack Trading have the ability to provide

cheaper goods as their overheads are far lower than the bigger food chains in Zimbabwe,

possibly up to 25% cheaper. The major retailers in Zimbabwe are Mohammed Musa, Spar,

Town & Country, Bhadela, TM, OK, and Bon Marche.

4.7.1 Accommodation

Accommodation is plentiful in all towns and cities. Further out the quality deteriorates but as the

road networks are fair the ability to get from A-B is possible within a day. It is quite easy for an

organisation to set up and get both office and residential accommodation in all towns. The

housing sector in Zimbabwe is jointly owned by the government and the private sector as

individuals or as cooperatives. There is a wide array of accommodation that an investor can

get. This includes: Hotels and Lodges around Zimbabwe, Occupancy of private property,

Purchase or lease of property in the urban and rural areas depending on the individual’s

choice. An investor or organisation can approach reputable real estate companies and will be

advised on the various options on offer.

Version 22 110

4.7.2 Electricity and Power 

Power supplies underpin all other services, and there is undeniable evidence that the

development of reliable, adequate, low priced power can contribute signicantly to the efcient

and effective functioning of the Zimbabwe economy and the maintenance of Zimbabweans’

standard of living, as well as to stimulating the expansion of existing businesses and the

establishment of new ones. However, to operate efciently, businesses and factories need

electricity supplies that are free of interruptions and shortages. In the past decade, domestic

power generation capacity has fallen far below demand as a result of lack of maintenance of

aging generation plants, and transmission and distribution facilities, as well as disruptions in the

supply of coal for generation. Only 1,000 MW out of 2,000 MW of installed generation capacity

is currently available, leading to unreliable power supplies and severe electricity shortages. The

ongoing electricity supply interruptions in Zimbabwe continue to have serious repercussions for

efforts to turn the economy around and achieve sustainable economic and social growth in the

medium- and longer-term. An efcient and viable electricity sector will ensure economic stability

and growth, given the forward and backward linkages with the rest of the economy.

Most of Zimbabwe's power is generated by a hydroelectric station at the Kariba Dam on the

Zambezi River. With considerable hydroelectric power potential and plentiful coal deposits for

thermal power station, Zimbabwe is less dependent on oil as an energy source than most other

comparably industrialized countries, but it still imports 40% of its electric power needs from the

DRC, Mozambique and South Africa. Only about 15% of Zimbabwe's total energy consumption

is accounted for by oil, all of which is imported. Zimbabwe imports about 1.2 billion litres of oil

per year. Dependence on petroleum is managed through the price controls for vehicle fuels, the

use of gasohol, and the substitution of diesel-electric locomotives on the railway system.

Zimbabwe also has substantial coal reserves that are utilized for power generation, and

recently discovered in Matabeleland province are coal bed methane deposits greater than any

known natural gas field in Southern or Eastern Africa. In recent years, however, economic

management challenges and low foreign currency reserves have led to fuel shortages. The

electric power supply has become erratic and blackouts are common due to low generator

availability at the Kariba hydroelectric power plant and unreliable or non-existent coal supplies

to the country's large thermal plants.

4.7.3 Financial Services

The Zimbabwean financial services industry is relatively well-developed. The financial services

industry in Zimbabwe comprises a wide range of activities, including banking, insurance,

investment services, managed funds (unit trusts) and other financial services. The Zimbabwe

Stock Exchange is an important organisation in this industry. Financial services are broad and

include banking, mortgage lending, mobile money transfers, remittances, funds investment,

trading in securities, insurance services, pension funds management, asset management,

medical aid insurance and so on.

The financial crisis of 2003/2004 which witnessed the collapse of financial institutions such as

ENG, Barbican Bank, Trust Bank, CFX Bank, Century Discount House, NDH, Intermarket

Holdings, Genesis Investment Bank and more recently the closure of Renaissance, Capital

Bank, Allied Bank, Royal Bank, Kingdom Bank etc has had tremendous impact on the financial

systems of Zimbabwe. The rise in mobile money transfers also poses regulatory challenges

(often nervousness) as mobile money transfer operators now handle more money transfers

(estimated at US$6 billion annually) than banks, yet these operators are not regulated as tightly

as banks are. The debate on reform in financial services regulatory framework in Zimbabwe is

aimed at seeking for solutions that create efficient, reliable, and stable financial services and

markets, which will boost investor confidence in the financial system and also protect investor

assets and savings. Source: .All Africa

An organisation can reasonably expect to find economic services such as banks, credit card

unions, bureau de change, mobile money transactions and accountancy companies. Mobile money transfer operators: Econet, NetOne and Telecel are regulated on the aspect of mobile

money transfers by the Postal Telecommunication Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe

(POTRAZ) and RBZ. The financial services provided in Zimbabwe include:

4.7.4 Freight Forwarding Agents

During the 1990’s the agricultural sector broke into the international market by meeting all the

EU standards. As a result horticulture, dairy and numerous other commodities were traded

overseas. This meant a need for a wide range of clearing agents to meet the demand. Today a

number of these companies are operating at less than optimum capacity but still have the skills

to cater for exporters.

4.7.5 Handling Equipment Rentals

There are a number of handling equipment companies available. However for the majority of

companies they use manual system to handle. Most of the companies that provides

warehousing and storage do provide handling services as well. In addition people can easily

group themselves and offer the series at competitive rates.

4.7.10 Waste Management and Disposal Providers

The responsibility for waste management and disposal lies with the local authorities. These

local authorities includes city, town and rural district councils. Zimbabwe spans an area of 390

590 km and is divided into rural and urban areas. There are roughly twenty five urban local

councils in the country which exist in some continuum ranging in size and complexity from

growth points to towns and cities. In Zimbabwe waste generation is still at relatively low levels

but there is less scope for reduction. In many towns and cities in Zimbabwe, municipal solid

waste disposal by sanitary landfill is regarded as the most cost-effective method to protect

human health and the environment. According to the authorities, the goal of waste

management is to ensure that its disposal does not lead to environmental pollution or

degradation. This means that waste management should be undertaken in such a manner that

garbage handlers, the public and the environment are not endangered in any way. Therefore,

waste disposal sites should be located reasonably far away from human habitation to prevent

the migration of vermin and odours to people’s homes. Municipal Councils, the duty bearers,

cannot collect the refuse regularly for a variety of reasons. Among others, there simply was no

fuel, frequent breakdown of waste collection vehicle or they are in a state of disrepair or

planning aids like resources and professionals involved in local government are not available

due to the economic downturn. Both human and financial resources were simply not available.

The Role of Environmental Management Agency (EMA)

In order to fulfil its vision of " safe, clean and healthy environment supporting an empowered

society and a growing economy" EMA works in partnership with stakeholders who are involved

in waste management initiatives. The stakeholders include: Community Based Organisations

(CBOs), Litter monitors, Waste Management Committees and Local Authorities. EMA is a

statutory body responsible for ensuring the sustainable management of natural resources and

protection of the environment, the prevention of pollution and environmental degradation, the

preparation of Environmental Plans for the management and protection of the environment. It

was established under the Environmental Management Act [Chapter 20:27] and

operationalised on the 17th of March 2003 through SI 103 of 2003. EMA’s environmental

quality management unit has a mandate to enforce waste management regulations and

implement and monitor waste management programmes. The agency promotes the

participation of community-based organisations in solid waste management. EMA issued

several regulations relevant to waste management: Effluent and solid Waste disposal

Regulations SI 6, 2007. This instrument regulates the disposal of waste (solid waste and

effluent), using the “polluter pays” principle.

Hazardous Waste management Regulations SI 10, 2007

This statutory instrument provides for the issuing of licenses for the generation, storage, use,

recycling, treatment, transportation or disposal of hazardous waste for waste generators and

waste handlers. Generators of hazardous waste are also required to prepare waste

management plans and targets. This statutory instrument also regulates waste collection and

management by local authorities. The importation and exportation of hazardous waste and

waste soils is also regulated by this statutory instrument. Environmental and natural Resources

management (hazardous substances, pesticides and other toxic substances) (amendment)

Regulation, 2011(no2). Amendment of the Hazardous substances, pesticides and toxic

substances Regulations SI 12, 2007.

Solid waste refers to discarded materials other than fluids and gases. It includes municipal

garbage, agricultural refuse, demolition and industrial waste as well as mining

residues.  Increasing population, rapid urbanization, industrial growth, the construction boom,

improved lifestyle and unsustainable consumption patterns have all contributed to the growing

solid waste problem. The transit and movement of hazardous substances, hazardous waste

Zimbabwe

Version 22 116

(dangerous goods) and oils through and within Zimbabwe, is prohibited unless they are cleared

through EMA check points. EMA’s presence at border posts is to ensure compliance with the

national legislation and international conventions on all hazardous substances or hazardous

waste that are in transit and those destined for use in the country.

10.3 Freight Forwarding Agents

During the 1990’s the agricultural sector broke into the International Market by meeting all the

EU standards. As a result horticulture, dairy and numerous other commodities were traded

overseas. This meant a need for a wide range of clearing agents to meet the demand. Today a

number of these companies are operating at less than optimum capacity but still have the skills

to cater for exporters.

The situation is very different in different parts of the country. In Harare, in the centre, where

the office is located, power cuts are less frequent than in the rest of the city, where electricity is

not available most of the day. In Masvingo power cuts happen every day, in Beitbridge not as

much. Finally, in Mutare the warehouse is located next to the electricity service provider,

therefore power is stable. Installing generators with sufficient capacity should be a priority for

every WFP office and warehouse. WFP should also ensure that its partners have generators as

well as fuels supplies, in order to ensure continuity of work and data transmission. ZESA

regards Hospitals, Sanitary facilities, Security, Border Posts, CBD and Airports priority in times

of shortage. Although not adhered to this is generally the norm in cities and areas of high

importance.
