The tiny nation of Djibouti will begin construction of a Chinese backed project which would constitute Africa\u2019s largest free trade zone.<\/p>\n
The construction of the project was formally launched by President Isma\u00efl Omar Guelleh, after plans for the 19-square mile free trade zone were signed and agreed in March 2016.<\/p>\n
Chinese investors in the zone aim to expand trade routes across the continent with a number of infrastructure initiatives, making up part of the One Belt, One Road scheme.<\/p>\n
Aboubaker Omar Hadi, chairman of the Djibouti Ports and Free Zone Authority said: “[Djibouti] aims to become a gateway not only to Ethiopia but to South Sudan, Somalia and the Great Lakes region.<\/p>\n
“This new free zone will be the country’s first employment reservoir, with more than 15,000 direct and indirect jobs created.”<\/p>\n
The zone will be built by Dalian Port Corporation Limited (HKG:2880) and operated by The Djibouti Ports and Free Zone Authority and China Merchants Holdings (HKG:0144), in a joint venture.<\/p>\n
Chinese companies will also build two new airports in Djibouti and expand the Doraleh Multipurpose Port with a combined cost of close to US$1.2 billion.<\/p>\n
