Country Overview
Mozambique is located in the south eastern coast of Africa, bordering South Africa, eSwatini, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania. With a population of 28,692,144 (2017) and an area of 801,590 it is the 50th most populous country and the 35th largest. Maputo, formerly named Loureno Marques, is the capital of Mozambique.
Mozambique is endowed with ample arable land, water, energy, as well as mineral resources and newly discovered natural gas offshore; three, deep seaports; and a relatively large potential pool of labour. It is also strategically located; four of the six countries it borders are landlocked, and hence dependent on Mozambique as a conduit to global markets. Mozambique’s strong ties to the region’s economic engine, South Africa, underscore the importance of its economic, political, and social development to the stability and growth of Southern Africa as a whole.
