44、 AfricaP9THE AFRICA OFFICES MARKET DASHBOARD|H2 2023In line with the broader African office market trends,monthly rents in Tanzania have remained stagnant at approximately US$15 psm throughout the year.This stagnation is likely a consequence of the oversupply of office spaces in Dar-es-Salaam,which
45、has created a tenants market.In response,many landlords have been compelled to explore innovative strategies to maintain reasonable occupancy levels,including offering rent concessions.This proactive approach seems to have yielded results,with the current office occupancy rate in the country ranging
46、 between 75 and 80%,representing a 5%increase from the figures recorded at the beginning of the year.Coworking spaces are also gaining popularity in Dar-es-Salaam,with many organizations preferring to operate within smaller,shared office environments.The appeal of these shared workspaces lies in the
47、ir effectiveness,flexibility in terms of tenure,and suitability for start-up businesses.Key players in the coworking industry in Tanzania include Link Space Tanzania,The Trains House,and KOFISI.Looking ahead,our forecasts for Tanzanias office sector remain positive.This optimism is driven by the cou
