Did you know? 🌍🚛
Africa could be heading towards one of the biggest logistics opportunities of the next two decades. 💥
The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is designed to make it easier for African countries to trade with each other — and estimates suggest intra-African trade could increase by around 45% by 2045, representing approximately US$275.7 billion in additional cross-border trade.
But here’s the part we find interesting…
Every additional product traded has to move.
It needs a truck, ship or plane.
It may need a warehouse.
It needs customs clearance.
It needs tracking.
It needs data.
And it needs to get across a border.
So perhaps the biggest AfCFTA story isn’t only about trade.
It’s about the enormous logistics network that will have to move it.
A logistics boom could be coming. Are you ready for it?
