AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Regulatory Push for Industry: Bulawayo’s Minister Judith Ncube urged faster, digital-first regulatory reforms to cut red tape and restore the city’s role as Zimbabwe’s industrial hub, as the National Competitiveness Commission strategy gets a “measurable improvements” focus. Competitiveness Oversight: The NCC board says it will enforce implementation discipline for the 2026–2030 National Competitiveness Strategy, aiming to translate policy into business results. Mining & Trade Logistics: Zimbabwe courts Chinese battery makers to set up local production, arguing raw materials are mined locally and should be processed into higher-value products. Regional Border Modernisation: A Chinese-led consortium won a 25-year concession to modernise Mozambique–Zimbabwe’s Machipanda One-Stop Border Post, targeting lower waiting times and cheaper logistics on the Beira Corridor. Energy & Power: Chinese-backed projects are set to add over 1,000MW through solar and waste-to-energy initiatives, while Zimbabwe also commissions six new FM transmitters in Bulawayo to expand coverage. Agriculture Under El Niño: Cabinet approved a six-pillar drought mitigation plan, including higher grain import support and an enhanced strategic grain reserve as cereal output is projected to fall. Labour & Services: Nurses threaten labour action over a government u-turn on reviewing health allowances. Consumer Safety: Isuzu D-Max owners are warned after a brake defect recall affecting vehicles exported to Zimbabwe. Aviation & Connectivity: Air Zimbabwe’s Harare–London Gatwick route reports a 95% completion rate in early operations. Business Pipeline: ZIDA shifts from investment promises to tracking projects on the ground, after approving 184 new licences in Q2 2026.
