Kenya - Mars Wrigley Confectionery opened its new Sh7 bln plant in Athi River as it seeks to diversify its local product portfolio beyond chewing gums to include products like Skittles. The new #factory would enable MWC to expand its product range of chocolates and grow new markets in #Egypt and #Nigeria. It will employ 200 workers and replaces its first facility located in #Nairobi since 1972 that also served 8 other #African markets.

Looks like Namibia too are experiencing the drought problem! When your country has less arable land and the sun keeps on shining as the rains fail,the worst is imminent to come! Namibia is facing a "natural disaster" because of poor rains, President Hage Geingob says. He has declared a state of emergency - the second in three years - over the situation, mobilising all government agencies to respond to the drought. The lack of rain has already left 500,000 people - one in five Namibians - without access to enough food, the government says. The sparsely-populated country has seen a succession of droughts since 2013. The government had set aside $40 million to buy food and water tanks, and to transport livestock to and from grazing areas. Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila has appealed for international help. "We... call on all Namibians and development partners to assist in any way possible, so that we provide to our people who are affected, as well as the livestock," she said in the national assembly. At least 60,000 domestic animals have died in the past six months. Those affected are facing severe food shortages following the prolonged drought, the prime minister's office, which is coordinating the response, has said. President Geingob blamed a poor rainy season, which is usually between January and March, for being behind the problem. Rivers have dried up in the north of the country, and people are depending on food and water relief from the government, journalist Tuyeimo Haidula told the BBC. Livestock have been worst affected by the drought, she said. Information and Communication Minister, Stanley Simataa, has asked farmers to reduce livestock to reasonable numbers that they can build when the situation changes, national broadcaster NBC reports. The vast mineral-rich southern African nation imports around 70 per cent of its food from neighbouring South Africa. Its expansive arid geography makes it difficult to grow crops for subsistence use. |

Why Ethiopia and Tanzania aren't going to overtake Kenya any soon so as to be the economic powerhouse in East and Central Africa! As Ethiopia seeks to become the continent's leading manufacturing hub, it has sold investors on workers' willingness to toil for less than half the salary of tailors in Bangladesh, said the report by New York University's Stern Center for Business and Human Rights. The report, entitled “Made in Ethiopia: Challenges in the Garment Industry's New Frontier,” said that in comparison, notoriously poorly-paid workers in Bangladesh earned US$95. Their Kenyan counterparts earn US$207 a month, and those in China US$326. “Rather than the compliant, cheap workforce promoted in Ethiopia, the foreign-based suppliers have encountered employees who are unhappy with their compensation and living conditions and increasingly willing to protest by stopping work or even quitting,” said Paul Barrett, the centre's deputy director. “In their eagerness to create a 'Made in Ethiopia' brand, the Government, global brands, and foreign manufacturers failed to anticipate that the base wage was simply too little for workers to live on.” Ethiopia has no official minimum wage for the private sector. The report found that workers, many of them young women, received very little training and faced cultural conflicts with managers from south or east Asia. The study took place in the Hawassa Industrial Park, the flagship of Ethiopia's manufacturing drive and one of five hubs inaugurated by the Government since 2014. SEEMINGLY UNREALISTIC Some 25,000 people work there, making clothes for the most sought-after brands around the globe, a number expected to grow to about 60,000. Suppliers from China, India and Sri Lanka have opened factories in the park. Ethiopia is Africa's second-most populous country, with some 105 million people who still largely survive off agriculture, and face punishing droughts and poverty. The government hopes clothing exports will go from US$145 million today to about US$30 billion per year, a figure the report states is “seemingly unrealistic” not least because low salaries have led to poor productivity, regular strikes and high attrition rates. The report showed that factories replaced all of their workers every 12 months on average. The Stern Center urged the Ethiopian Government to establish a minimum wage and craft a long-term economic plan to strengthen the apparel industry. |
