Abstract
Metal casting is the mother of Zimbabwean industries since their performance is mainly hinged upon cast components. An overview of the Zimbabwean foundry industry showing its state of the art including annual production, number of employees, technology, material, quality and diversity of castings, and common markets is presented. The Zimbabwean foundries were then compared with global leading countries in performance. Challenges faced by the Zimbabwean foundries were identified and potential development strategies were suggested.
