Dar port’s surge sharpens focus on clearance and evacuation

Dar es Salaam. Dar es Salaam Port handled nearly 14 million tonnes in just five months, a jump that has pushed clearance, evacuation and predictability to the centre of its performance test as volumes rise faster than the logistics chain can absorb errors.

Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA) data show the port processed 13.97 million tonnes between July and November 2025, up from 10.40 million tonnes over the same period in 2024.
