Industry Business Outlook for the Logistics and Supply Chain Industry in Africa.

Logistics and the supply chain have long been a problem area throughout Africa. The World Bank consistently ranks many African countries poorly on the Logistics Performance Index, exemplifying the issue. But, with the African Continental Free Trade Area hoping to create a single market across the continent, the coming improvements are set to position Africa stronger than ever on the global market. African logistics market is estimated to record a CAGR of approximately 6% during the forecast period. During the past decade, globalization and technology created new opportunities for internationalization, boosting the supply chains and competitiveness in Africa. This event will bring together key stakeholders for a strategic discussion on the new course of action that is needed in order to make measurable progress in successfully addressing the continuing crisis.
