These reports are specialised in that they focus on a specific sector within Africa, and includes insights into Industrial Manufacturing

The manufacturing sector is widely considered to be the ideal industry to drive Africa’s development. This report provides a snapshot of the sophistication and scope of the manufacturing industries in various African economies, focussing on certain countries that boast significant manufacturing potential.
