Zambia`s methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) import shipments in 2024 continued to be dominated by top exporting countries such as South Africa, China, and India. The high concentration levels indicated by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) suggest a competitive market. Despite a strong compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.56% from 2020 to 2024, there was a notable decline in the growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -33.77%. This fluctuation may indicate shifts in market dynamics or external factors impacting MEK imports into Zambia.
