Lobo, Mozambique: An Important Port and Trade Hub in West Africa
Lobito is a major port city in Mozambique's Benguela province, located on the Atlantic coast and known for its natural deep-water harbor, which is one of the busiest in West Africa. Established in the late 19th century during the Portuguese colonial period, the port has become the gateway to the sea for landlocked countries such as Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zambia, thanks to its favorable geographic location. The port is especially connected to the African interior through the Benguela Railroad, which promotes the export of copper, agricultural products and other resources. Lombo's economy is based on port logistics and fishing, and in recent years it has attracted foreign investment to expand port facilities and improve trade efficiency. The city is a blend of African traditions and Portuguese colonial style, with its waterfront landscape and historical buildings, and is a key economic and transportation node in western Mozambique.
