Words from the CEO
"During the first quarter, all our core holdings showed an average growth of 33% compared to Q1 of last year. It is yet to be seen what the effects of the war in Ukraine will be in Tanzania, but we are seeing that raw material prices are going up, the price of petroleum is going up, and the country is also dependent on wheat imports from Ukraine. At the same time, Equinor and Shell lead an energy project together with Exxon Mobile, Pavilion and Orphir, a project which may result in up to USD 30 billion in infrastructure investments. In addition, the construction of the worlds longest heated pipeline will be positive for job creation with an estimated 10,000 jobs being created, which may create opportunities in particular for Ecohomes. Also, with joining the East African Community, the whole region becomes more competitive and easier to access, from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean, with improved access to the larger African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA)."
