2.6 Project Description
Currently, the country is importing most of the
vaccines needed for animal disease control. The
imports are usually unreliable and fail to meet the
required demand. Small-scale vaccine production
is being done at the Central Veterinary Research
Institute (CVRI) in Lusaka.
2.7 Market Analysis
Zambia's livestock population is on the increase.
The biggest threat to the livestock sector is
animal disease outbreaks. Having an established
supply of vaccines can only contain this. The
vaccines to be produced will be used locally and
the surplus could be exported to neighbouring
countries.

Raw materials in the manufacturing of vaccines
will need to be imported
