Voor veel organisaties ontwikkelt Afrika zich snel tot een nieuw grensgebied.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With natural resources, growing consumer markets, and untapped markets, companies are increasingly eyeing Africa for competitive advantage and growth.  The continent\u2019s collective GDP is now almost at par with that of Russia and Brazil and the population is fast becoming urbanized. Africa has more urban population than India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, income and growth disparities exist in African countries. While some countries are showing rapid economic growth, others still face extreme poverty. Africa has one of the most diverse market structures, having developed markets like Libya and some completely underdeveloped markets like Somalia and Ethiopia. Even in most developed countries in Africa, infrastructure challenges exist.\u00a0 Many languages, logistical differences, transaction difficulty across borders, and different customs make Africa a highly diverse and difficult market<\/a> to deal with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marketing Research in Africa can help investors understand consumer behavior and attitudes and identify new untapped markets.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The African continent has the second largest population in the world and has more than 50 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major industries in Africa are largely dependent on natural resources. The two biggest industries, Agriculture and Mining are the sectors that are rapidly developing. The climate of the region is suitable for the growth of cash crops.  African cocoa products are in high demand worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andere ontwikkelde landen hebben nu beloofd om technologische expertise te delen met Afrika om de productiviteit te helpen verbeteren. Aan de andere kant heeft Afrika een aantal van de grootste reserves aan natuurlijke hulpbronnen en mineralen, waaronder olie, petroleum, goud, diamant en steenkool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kansen in Afrika<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another major industry of Africa is the Finance Services and Banking industry which is growing rapidly. However, the sector is still lagging to provide substantial growth in the region. Risk, security concerns, and fears of fraud impact the development of the banking sector in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Een andere sector waarvan velen schatten dat deze groeit in de Afrikaanse landen is de productiesector. Veel landen in Afrika richten zich op het bouwen van infrastructuur en het aantrekken van meer FDI in productiesectoren. Met aanzienlijke arbeidskrachten en grondstoffen wordt de regio door sommigen gezien als een lucratieve keuze voor productiefaciliteiten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rise of mobile phones and mobile technology in Africa is impacting how consumers live their lives.  This may also open the possibility of using mobile methods in Market Research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite growth in recent years, Africa still has very low figures in private investment. \u00a0Much of the African countries\u2019 wealth is dependent on natural reserves, which can be unstable due to changing macroeconomics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoge niveaus van corruptie en ineffici\u00ebnte toewijzing van middelen kunnen van invloed zijn op het bedrijfsleven en de ontwikkeling. Overheden in Afrika nemen steeds meer maatregelen om de regelgeving en infrastructuur te verbeteren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marktonderzoek in Afrika<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Qualitative and Quantitative Marktonderzoek in Afrika<\/a> is growing.\u00a0 Traditional methods are typically used such as face-to-face data collection, In-Person Focus Groups and Telephone surveys.\u00a0 Conducting Marktonderzoek in Afrika<\/a> requires a thorough understanding of the local market.\u00a0 In some cases, research professionals may need to go from village to village to be able to build a sample.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
