Tanzania’s Deputy Minister for Industry and Trade, Denis Londo, urged manufacturers to increase local production to bolster the nation’s industrial development. This call to action was made during a visit to GF Vehicle Assemblers’ facility in Kibaha. The visit focused on evaluating the factory's production capabilities and vehicle assembly processes. GF Vehicle Assemblers is responding by expanding its manufacturing operations. This expansion aligns with the government’s broader strategy to promote industrialisation within Tanzania. The initiative aims to strengthen the national economy through increased domestic production and reduced reliance on imports. Further details of the expansion were not immediately available.
