Sinopsis

Zimbabwe has witnessed the rapid expansion of informal cross-border trading (ICBT) with neighbouring countries over the past two decades. Beginning in the mid-1990s when the country embarked on its Economic Structural Adjustment Programme (ESAP), a large number of people were forced into informal employment through worsening economic conditions and the decline in formal sector jobs. The country&rsquo,s post-2000 economic col-lapse resulted in the closure of many industries and created market opportunities for the further expansion of ICBT.
