Frost & Sullivan Examines the Opportunities in the Sub-Saharan African Chemicals Industry
2008 saw the beginning of a major global economic crisis that affected many industries across the globe. The chemicals sector was one such industry that suffered under the weight of the worldwide recession.
"Chemical industry participants are now preparing to position themselves for the future, looking to take advantage of the growth opportunities presented by the rebound," says Frost & Sullivan chemicals analyst Laura Peinke. "From manufacturers to end-users, companies in the chemicals industry are looking for strategic opportunities, and sub-Saharan Africa is a region with significant potential for growth."
"The chemicals industry in Africa has not been as heavily affected as in other parts of the world," Peinke says. "Companies willing to engage with this market can expect to find a number of key areas that offer significant growth potential."
For a comprehensive overview of the potential of key markets in the sub-Saharan African chemicals industry, Frost & Sullivan will be hosting an online analyst briefing on Wednesday 19 August 2009. To participate, please email Patrick Cairns using to 'Contact' button below.
