africon recently completed stage 1 of a project for a client from the textile industry. As a supplier of machines for making ropes, the first key question on the way to developing an Africa strategy was “where can we find local manufacturing of ropes in Africa?”. africon answered this question through a combination of industry knowledge from an expert on the ground, as well as a comprehensive analysis of trade statistics. With the identified focus countries, the project can now proceed to look at specific market environments and how our client can position himself to succeed in them.
