Zambia Association of Manufacturer’s Vision for Reform, Digitisation, and Growth

Momentum continues to build around Zambia’s private sector reform agenda following the 4th Private Sector Day, with manufacturing firmly in focus. In this exclusive conversation, Mohammed Umar, President of the Zambia Association of Manufacturers (ZAM), reflected on how the dialogue between government and business is translating into real outcomes. Key highlights included growing investment in manufacturing, renewed commitments to cut bureaucracy, and progress toward a single business licence framework to ease the cost and complexity of doing business. Mr. Umar also welcomed the President’s declaration of 12 December as Private Sector Day, positioning it as an annual moment to take stock, align priorities, and set targets for the year ahead. Digitisation emerged as a critical enabler, with ZAM pushing for online, streamlined systems inspired by global best practice. Beyond policy, the conversation underscored the resilience of manufacturers, the rising impact of SMEs, and the importance of maintaining one strong industry voice to advance shared solutions, particularly on taxation, licensing, and competitiveness. 🎙️ Host: Mwelwa Kenneth Chibesakunda 👤 Guest: Mohammed Umar, President, Zambia Association of Manufacturers 📍 Event: 4th Edition of Private Sector Day #PrivateSectorDay #BusinessReforms #Investment #FinancialInsight #Get2Know
