Landlocked economies have been attracted wide attention around the globe. Nearly a third of the African countries are landlocked. However, there is scare literature on the efficiency and performance of their transit transport system. This book, therefore, used a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to address the knowledge gap. We conducted a comparative performance efficiency analysis of transit transport system of landlocked African countries (LLACs) corridors. Three different types of DEA models were proposed and used to measure the relative efficiencies of transit transport of some selected LLACs. The results show some efficient corridors, which means that some landlocked countries are making progress, and other LLACs can learn from these efficient corridors to improve their corridor services. A better understanding of the efficiency of the transit transport may lead to a better decision-making for trade facilitation measures and is the core focus of this book. The analysis indicate the relevance of minimizing trade costs to stimulate landlocked countries exports and should provide guidelines to policy makers in framing strategies that will promote transact trade efficiently.
