Welcome to mitpsd.gov.mw!

The goal of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Private Sector Development, as defined in the new Strategic Plan for the Ministry, is "to transform the economy from predominantly importing and consuming into a producing and exporting country, thereby contributing significantly towards sustainable economic growth, job creation, economic empowerment, generation of competitive exports and harnessing of local resources".

The year 2006 saw the launch of the new national development plan for Malawi - the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy. The focus of national development efforts are now clearly on achieving poverty reduction though private sector-led economic growth. Trade and private sector development issues feature strongly throughout the strategy and the role of the private sector is enshrined as the "engine of growth" in Malawi.
