In the line of my work for an aid-for-trade organisation, I recently traversed key trade corridors across the African continent to assess their current state of play.

Travelling mainly by road along these crucial trade routes revealed the vast trade opportunities they hold, as well as the great potential for intra-continental and global trade.
