Despite a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2020 to 2024, the Zambia sardine import market saw a modest growth rate of 4.86% in 2024. The top exporting countries to Zambia included Thailand, South Africa, Morocco, China, and Portugal. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market structure. This data suggests that while the overall market for sardine imports in Zambia may have declined over the years, there is still room for growth and potential opportunities for both domestic and international suppliers to capitalize on the market demand.

The Sardine market in Zambia is projected to grow at a high growth rate of 12.64% by 2027, within the Africa region led by Egypt, along with other countries like South Africa, Ethiopia, Algeria and Nigeria, collectively shaping a dynamic and evolving market environment driven by innovation and increasing adoption of emerging technologies.

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.
