Tanzania
Tanzania faces high vulnerability due to its 100% reliance on imported petroleum and limited 20-day fuel reserves amidst the ongoing global oil supply crunch. Gasoline prices are already elevated at $1.22/L, and the critical Dar es Salaam port supply chain is experiencing significant pressure, threatening further disruptions. While its direct exposure to the Strait of Hormuz is low, the global market impact is severely felt, exacerbating moderate food risks with fertilizer costs up 65%. The outlook for coming weeks remains challenging as global supply constraints persist, likely leading to continued price hikes and potential fuel shortages.
