Malawi

Of all alcohol produced in Malawi, 61% is illicit, with distilled making up 76% and fermented 24%.  Local reports, however, indicate that the production and consumption of alcohol in the country cannot be measured since the data is not easy to obtain.

Even so, there are quite a number efforts by the government of Malawi to crack down on illegal and contraband alcohol, including the launch of a National Alcohol Policy and apprehending illicit alcohol traders.
