In October 2024, Namibia saw a change in its trade situation, with export earnings falling by 3.8%. The amount dropped from N$9.0 billion in September to N$8.7 billion. This decrease in exports happened alongside a significant rise in imports, driven by a growing demand for goods from other countries. Total imports climbed to N$10.7 billion in October, marking a noticeable increase compared to earlier months. This widening gap between exports and imports raises concerns about Namibia’s economic health, which could affect foreign exchange reserves and overall economic stability in the near future. The situation emphasizes the difficulties the country’s trade sector is facing due to changing global demand and local economic conditions.
