In 2024, Zambia continued to rely on recycled plastics imports, with major contributions from South Africa, Congo, China, UAE, and Belgium. Despite a significant negative CAGR of -29.86% from 2020 to 2024, the high concentration of imports indicated by the HHI suggests a consistent market dominance among these key exporting countries. The drastic growth rate decline of -77.11% from 2023 to 2024 reflects potential challenges or changes in the market dynamics. Monitoring these trends will be crucial for stakeholders in the recycled plastics industry to adapt to the evolving landscape in Zambia.
