The Business Climate Survey for Nordic Companies in Tanzania is a joint initiative by the Embassies of Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, and REPOA. Business Climate Surveys are published regularly in several markets across the world. This is a follow-up survey from that conducted in 2019 aiming to further our understanding of the performance of Nordic companies, their challenges, and opportunities as well as their outlook for the future of their investments and operations in Tanzania. The companies targeted by this survey were remarkably different in many aspects of their businesses, including size, areas of operations, profitability, and maturity, but all shared one common trait, having strong affiliations with the countries represented by their respective embassies.
The survey was conducted between November 2022 and February 2023 and featured quantitative and qualitative interviews with companies. The quantitative component of the survey comprised of an electronic questionnaire designed and administered in close collaboration with the respective embassies. The embassies facilitated contact with these companies and helped to explain why this independent survey is an important part of promoting dialogue that is informed by evidence. The qualitative assessment of companies provided for a more comprehensive in-depth assessment of selected features of the business climate.
