The actualized investments span key sectors of the economy. Manufacturing led with about US $5.54 billion (37.7%), while mining contributed USD 5.07 billion (34.5%). The transport sector attracted about US $1.53 billion, with the remainder spread across services, agriculture, energy, ICT, and tourism.

These investments supported the creation of 91,522 jobs, with manufacturing and mining among the largest employers, helping to improve livelihoods and strengthen Zambia’s productive base. Lusaka Province recorded the largest share of actualized projects (around US $7.29 billion), followed by North-Western Province (US $3.19 billion) and the Copperbelt (US $2.92 billion). Government officials say the figures reflect rising investor confidence, policy consistency, and Zambia’s improving macroeconomic environment.
