AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoPort Dependence: Ethiopia still routes 96.7% of its maritime trade through Djibouti, despite years of efforts to diversify. Berbera, Tadjoura and Mombasa-Moyale together handle only a small share, underscoring Djibouti’s central role—and Ethiopia’s exposure to disruption. Red Sea Shipping: Djibouti and China called for de-escalation and freedom of navigation, warning that instability could raise trade and energy costs and threaten food supplies. Fuel Logistics: Aliko Dangote’s planned pan-African energy network includes a Djibouti–Addis Ababa supply route, alongside a $327 million stake in Kenya’s oil pipeline. The plan could strengthen regional fuel links, though it remains part of a wider investment push through 2030. Trade and Skills: Algeria’s Saidal sent its first pharmaceutical shipment to Djibouti under a larger order. Djibouti also sought deeper cooperation with China’s Luban Workshop, which trains students in railway engineering, logistics and international trade.
