To boost commerce throughout the continent, African ministers have urged greater policy harmonization and cooperation between nations.
During a panel discussion at the Africa Trade Conference 2026 in South Africa, the ministers made the request while talking about the role of cooperation, policy, and implementation in bolstering the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
The purpose of the high-level strategic gathering is to increase Africa’s influence over the direction of international trade.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) will provide online coverage of the event on Wednesday, which is sponsored by Access Bank, Nigeria.
“Building Africa’s Trade Ecosystem for Real-World Impact: Turning Vision into Velocity” is the conference’s theme.
Speaking during the meeting, Zambia’s Minister of Commerce, Trade, and Industry, Mr. Chipoka Mulenga, stated that improving intra-African trade required coordination and policy coherence among African nations.
He claims that Zambia has created frameworks to encourage local investment and commerce, but for regional trade to flourish, these frameworks must coincide with those of other African nations.
“Policy has a crucial role in bringing everything together. If we want to improve trade among ourselves, it needs to be reliable, strong, and cohesive,” he stated.
The minister emphasized that African states should prioritize collaboration over rivalry and that policies should support nations in leveraging each other’s advantages.
He used the production of copper as an example, pointing out that uncoordinated attempts by multiple nations to process the same commodity could restrict market potential inside Africa.
He stated, “Instead of competing in the same areas, we should look at each other’s comparative advantages and invest in each other’s economies.”
Speaking as well, Ms. Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, Ghana’s Minister of Trade and Industry, stated that although Africa has policies, they are difficult to implement and harmonize.
She claims that variations in certification and regulatory practices between nations frequently impede trade and deter companies.
“Policy is not lacking in Africa.” The application of these policies in a coordinated manner is what we lack,” she stated.
He clarified that goods that have been verified in one African nation occasionally need to be certified again before being imported into another, which causes needless delays.
In order for the AfCFTA to succeed, nations must be prepared to make concessions. Integration would continue to be challenging if each nation demands independent verification of everything, he stated.
The minister recommended that nations start by acknowledging each other’s norms in a few areas before progressively increasing collaboration.
Instead than waiting for all African nations to come to an agreement, he continued, development might begin with a few.
According to Ofosu-Adjare, “if two nations start and show success, others will follow.”
Botswana’s Minister of Trade and Industry, Mr. Mmusi Kgafela, stated in his speech that governments must primarily foster an atmosphere that is favorable to companies and investors.
He clarified that the private sector now drives the majority of economic activity, with governments playing a more coordinating role.
“Creating an enabling climate is the primary responsibility of the government. Coordination is necessary; the policies and plans are already in place, he stated.
The minister went on to say that by creating trade routes and alliances with its neighbors, Botswana was shifting from being a “landlocked” nation to a “land-linked” one.
He claims that cooperative initiatives with nations like Zambia are enhancing cross-border trade by lowering freight delays through infrastructure and one-stop border posts.
In response to inquiries from attendees, Ghanaian Minister Ofosu-Adjare also addressed worries about competition from outside economies, stating that Africa must safeguard its industries while fostering regional commerce.
He pointed out that in cases when comparable goods are already manufactured on the continent, African nations could use policies like tariffs to safeguard domestic businesses.
The minister also emphasized the significance of long-term financing for African industry and praised Access Bank for its support of programs meant to increase enterprises’ access to capital.
The conference attendees emphasized that in order to improve Africa’s trading environment, governments, financial institutions, and the private sector must work together more closely.
Policymakers, corporate executives, and financial institutions gathered at the conference to discuss workable plans for growing commerce throughout Africa’s more than 1.5 billion-person market. [NAN]
