The Zambian chickpeas market experienced a robust historical CAGR of 23.86% from 2021 to 2024, driven primarily by heightened demand and favorable supply chain conditions post-pandemic. The significant annual growth rates in 2022 and 2023, at 30% and 30.77% respectively, reflected a surge in consumer interest and increased import reliance as global supply chains began to stabilize after disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as input costs rose due to universal commodity price surges and logistical challenges, growth began to decelerate in 2024 to 11.76%. Looking ahead, the forecasted CAGR of just 3.20% from 2025 to 2031 suggests a transition towards more modest growth rates, likely influenced by ongoing supply chain adjustments and potential shifts in agricultural policy that may affect production costs and import dynamics within the region.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
