1. Introduction
Tanzania has centralized system of government inherited from
the colonial rule but strengthened after independence
Four phases of Government Leadership
1ST Phase
HE Julius K. Nyerere
( 1961-1985)
2nd Phase
HE Ali Hassan
Mwinyi (1985-1995)
3rd Phase
4th Phase
HE Benjamin
HE Jakaya M.
W. Mkapa (1995 Kikwete (2005-present
- 2005)
)
The economy is predominantly agric economy contributes 25.8% of
GDP (2008).
National Vision 2025 recognizes role of Industrial sector transformation
the economy from low agric productivity to semi-industrialized one.
NSGPR / MKUKUTA requires sector to contribute to Poverty reduction.

For the country to achieve sustainable
economic growth and Development,
contribution of manufacturing sector to
GDP should surpass that of traditional

3.Policy Regime
Main Evolution of Industrial Policy
Post Independence Industry Strategy inherited from colonial
production
Import Substitution Industry Strategy (1967 – 1985):
State led
Basic Industry Strategy (BIS) from 1985 – 1995: State led
Sustainable Industrial Development Policy ( 1996 –
2020):Private sector led
Sustainable Industrial Devt Policy ( SIDP)
Privatization of State owned enterprise ( Govt role – Create
conducive environment for private sector to grow)
Promote investment in untapped potential for development of
industrial sector
Export led Industrialization ( EPZ & transformed to EDZ )
Development of Human resources for industrial sector 8
Policy Formulation Process
Policy making is 'the process by which government
statements are arrived at‘
policy refers to 'specific statements, guidelines and
pronouncements on....development and related issues
in the country
In Tanzania, policy formulation and implementation is a
process that is political at every stage
Three main stages in policy planning & process are:
Policy Formulation (Cabinet, Gvt Departs & Line
Ministries, Dev Partners, Private Sector);
Policy Decision/ approval (Parliament); and
Policy Implementation (Implementing Agencies (e.g.
Ministries and Govt agencies, Private Sectors, Devt
9
Partners etc).

Roles of the Key Players
Roles of MITM
1.Policy formulation, and development of the National Industrial Sector
Strategic Plan.
2. Provision of policy guidance and supervision to Affiliated Institutions (
IS0’s, Private sector, Agencies etc )
3. Monitoring & Evaluation of industrial policy formulation, review process and
spearheading implementation of all the aspects of the Policy/strategy.
4. Facilitate co-ordination and ensure co-operation with other stakeholders in
Industrial policy formulation, implementation and review process.
6.Ensuring that industrial policy remains an integral component of national
development plans.
Roles of Dev’t Partners
1. Assist technocrats in policy & strategy formulation.
2. Funding policy formulation and implementation process.
3. Capacity building in policy and strategy support.
4. Constraints of Manufacturing Sector
High taxes
Poor access
to finance
Macro
economic
instability
Inadequate road
and railway
network
Inadequate supply
of human resources
Future outlook in the integrated
Industrial Development Strategy
5. Integrated Industrial Development Strategy 2025
and Master Plan
“I look forward to building a nation that is
economically independent ...I’ll do so by
undertaking deliberate steps to
revolutionalise agriculture, livestock
keeping, fisheries and industries,” …
H.E President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete
(2010).
Why Integrated Industrial Development
Strategy & Master Plan?
Challenges facing industrial sector are
integrated
Ensure co-ordination of uncoordinated
efforts in the productive sector
SIDP lacks focused and comprehensive
strategy and action plan for implementation
Ensure stable growth and realization of
National vision 2025.

6. Conclusion.
Stakeholders participation in policy planning include
among other things: increased ownership, sustainability,
increased commitment, etc;
However, the industrial policy planning process in TZ
has been political, slightly inclusive, largely owned and
led by government officials & Development partners.
Political commitment and priority settings has been in
favour of political popularity with less attention given to
industrial sector.

7. Way Forward
Need for political commitment for realization of
Integrated industrial development strategy and
Master Plan interventions.
Key to success would be through implementing
Sector-based approach (Textile, Leather, Cashew
nuts etc, dev’t strategies) which is more suitable
for an economy like Tanzania.
Role of infrastructure in facilitating industrial
development should not be undermined
Encourage sub-contracting, SME-led Industrial
clusters for economies of scale and agglomeration
Way Forward
Industrial sector has a great potential in achieving
sustainable growth and poverty reduction.
Care must be taken in addressing implementation gaps.
Strong leadership with focus priorities interventions for
industrial growth.
Required human, financial and tech resources;
Clear roles and responsibilities;
Coordination and reporting mechanism/framwk;
Technological adaption and transfer;
Engage private sector capacities in seeking solutions.
