AFRICA RETAIL MARKET
INTRODUCTION
Africa is a large and diverse continent, and each has a distinct retail market. From one country to the next, retail environments can be very different, so businesses must adjust to local preferences and desires. Africa has a vastly different retail scene from region to region due to disparities in economic development, consumer behavior, and cultural preferences.
Africa’s rural communities face particular difficulties with formal retail because of their poor infrastructure and access. Innovative distribution strategies, like mobile markets and e-commerce delivery networks, are being investigated by certain retailers as a means of reaching rural consumers.
Supply chain issues, infrastructure issues, regulatory obstacles, and currency changes are just a few of the difficulties faced by the African retail industry. From one nation to the next, these difficulties can be very different. As more customers in Africa become aware of these challenges, sustainable and ethical shopping practices—including those involving fair trade and ecologically friendly goods—are becoming more popular.
AFRICA RETAIL MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST
The Africa retail market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
AFRICA RETAIL MARKET NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH
Adidas launched its largest store in Africa at Gateway Shopping Centre, boasting a commendable retail space of 1687 square metres. Incorporating the best of the Adidas brand through potent visual storytelling, the Home of athletic idea is founded in athletic culture.
A unique area where footwear and clothing can be customised with embroidery, engraving, badges, and heat press is where customers will find a genuinely immersive retail experience, along with cutting-edge technologies and a Run Lab that evaluates gait analysis. To give customers real-time colour and design options, retailers are using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) mirrors that automatically identify product information.
With a premium offering of Stella McCartney, Terrex, and Y3, as well as an exclusive DBN t-shirt range, the store boasts a large selection of best-in-class products across its Running, Outdoor, Training, Women’s, Football, Sportswear, and Originals categories. With Durban culture and credibility weaved throughout every touchpoint, the area is extremely local.
With a dynamic layout that incorporates both practical and aesthetically pleasing aspects, the store offers a contemporary retail environment. The retail exhibit was created by Arturo Tedeschi, who included the Durban map as a generative element to give the pieces additional depth and meaning. The sculpture’s layers interact with one another, interacting with the ambient light and spatial shop dimensions to create an immersive experience.
