South Africa is driving economic growth in one of the most exciting continents in the world, but navigating the complex environment can be a burdensome endeavour without the right help on board.
Economic growth in sub-Saharan Africa should significantly outpace the global average over the next three years, according to the World Bank, with an increase in investment likely to boost the continent’s growth to more than 5%. South Africa is the powerhouse of Africa and very much the driving force behind this expansion, with the most advanced, broad-based economy in Africa with infrastructure to match any first-world country.
The country’s multifaceted culture and history presents many challenges for growing businesses, although recent figures suggest that a period of consolidation has created a modern market. South Africa's middle class has more than doubled over the last eight years, growing from 1.7-million South Africans in 2004 to an estimated 4.2 million in 2012, according to new research by the UCT Unilever Institute of Strategic Marketing.
The World Bank and International Finance Corporation (IFC) rank South Africa in 39th place in the world for ease of doing business, although there are several elements of expanding into the country that require specialist attention. What’s more, the culture and economic backdrop of South Africa can make business growth a tricky endeavour, and having a good appreciation of the country with local help is a must.
