Africa the continent of resources , land of 54 countries and populated with 1.2 billion people. The economic researchers and the logistics and supply chain specialist observed that the continent countries are thinking for change. That’s the reason the new trade agreements, trade routes, infrastructures and communication means resources has been developed in the recent past. That is a positive change in them and welcomed by the civilized and modern world.

                The Internet connectivity, telecommunication services are faster than past time now here. People of the countries are enjoying the 4th generation internet facilities with the beautiful smartphones in their hands. That’s all  is a very positive change and people of the countries enjoying it. Now the Africa is going to be really change its people and nations through the modern infrastructure and Information Technology Communication means.

According to the Twinkle Sahita reports over the Logistics Trading companies operations boom and effects of E-Commerce in general public life. That development in the infrastructure and communication technologies give a big boom to the e-commerce there and the people using the resource and logistics services like the other countries people and they are happy with this change. But there are many things to do for them in these sectors to make this change permanent.

African market has a big potential for e-commerce and people like it to use the international logistics suppling companies services here. Glyn Hughes from IATA is happy about the use of the internet among the countries in African region and he wants more efforts for  Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa to enjoy the boost of IT there. In short according to them the E-Commerce still has the opportunities in Africa to achieve the leverage and for that purpose the African countries need to make improvement in their policies at state level and give more opportunities to the companies in their countries to trade here. That’s also the part of WTO “World Trade Organization” .

According to the Statistics of Twinkle Sahita report the variance analysis for the use of smart phone devices is 175 million subscriber in 2016 and now will rise up to 220 million in till 2020.The smart phone internet users raise up to 40% for 30% and 14 countries there giving the services to use the mobile phone money services.

Banking sector is still a problem here. There is a big number of population who are living and operating in the financial and business market without bank accounts and a big number of account holders are not allowed to use the credit card facilities. That is still a issue and need to address here for the governments and the bankers also.


Africa E-Commerce companies are still struggling to work hard to achieve their level and market growth in the 1.2 billion population among the 54 different markets.
