Venture To Mozambique

Economy

Mozambique suffered greatly from independence in 1975, through the Civil War, but has, of recent years, seen resurgence in terms of income. Traditionally agriculture has always been important, and Mozambique produces good cashew nut crops, and large quantities of copra. Many people are subsistence fishermen, as the coastal waters are known for their prawn, anchovy and sardine. Unfortunately visiting commercial trawlers have had a negative effect in term of overfishing.

Tourism is very much on the increase, and in some areas is a major employer. World-class Lodges and resorts from Maputo to Inhambane are now the norm. The archipelagos of Bazaruto and Quirimbas have seen much development, and are both parts of marine Reserves. Perhaps most exciting is the work being done in and around the Niassa and Gorongosa Reserves – developing a good tourist infrastructure, whilst ensuring that the areas are properly conserved.
