Africa, the continent closest to Europe, which consists of more than 50 countries, is an
extremely promising but also challenging market. Due to the geographical proximity and
huge demand for goods and services in almost every field from the young, growing
population, the African market may be an opportunity for Polish entrepreneurs. However,
operating in Africa requires joint action of companies, organizations, state and
financial institutions, as well as the support of experts in the specifics of African
markets.
In 2021, trade began under the new African Continental Free Trade Agreement, thanks to
which Africa will become the largest free trade area in the world by 2030. This allows
for a common regulatory framework and common tariffs, that will increase the
competitiveness of the African economy, which is developing rapidly and has enormous
potential and absorptive capacity.
