- More than 300 Zimbabwean farmers have been welcomed by President Mwanawasa
- More than 150 farms are now leased from the Zambian government
- One such farmer has invested more than $10 million and employed over 3,500 people
- Zambia’s tobacco crop production estimates are set to double in 2004 and have lured Universal Corporation into investing in Zambia
- Lusaka will soon be host to a tobacco processing plant, scheduled for completion in 2007
