In 2024, Zambia continued to see a significant influx of commercial seaweed imports, with top exporters including South Africa, India, and Malaysia. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market. Despite a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2020 to 2024, there was a notable growth spike from 2023 to 2024 at a rate of 13.64%. This suggests a potential shift or expansion in the market dynamics, which could present opportunities for both Zambian importers and exporters in the seaweed industry.

By 2027, the Commercial Seaweed market in Zambia is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 7.70%, as part of an increasingly competitive Africa region, where South Africa remains at the forefront, supported by Ethiopia, Morocco, Cote d'Ivoire and Angola, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.
