The UK enjoys a robust trade relationship with Africa. While the biggest trade lanes themselves aren't within Africa, they connect major African ports to the UK. North Africa, for instance, sees a significant flow of manufactured goods, fuel, and food products between UK ports and Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Egypt.
Similar trade routes connect the UK to West Africa (machinery, vehicles, and refined petroleum for cocoa, coffee, and timber), South Africa (machinery, manufactured goods, and chemicals for minerals, fruits, and wines), East Africa (vehicles, textiles, and machinery for coffee and flowers), and West-Central Africa (machinery, vehicles, and refined petroleum for oil, minerals, and timber).
