ISLAMABAD/KARACHI: The first consignment of Pakistani-made tractors reached Tanzania on Wednesday, marking a significant milestone in the country’s trade relations with East Africa.
An official announcement of the commerce ministry said that Masai Trekta Company Ltd, having recently opened its tractor distribution head office in Tanzania, has become a key partner in distributing Pakistani ATS tractors across Tanzania and potentially expanding further across the region.
The tractors were imported from Pak-Tractors House, a prominent manufacturing company based in Lahore.
The export of these tractors is expected to strengthen Pakistan’s export portfolio in East Africa and open up the possibility of an increase in tractor exports to Tanzania and neighbouring countries.
