South Africa: Exporter Guide

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

South Africa is one of the most advanced and diverse economies in Africa. With a population of almost 54 million people, the country is an attractive business destination, due to its growing market and welcoming business environment. South Africa also serves as the perfect entry point to other countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, GDP is expected to grow by less than two percent in 2014 and the depreciation of the currency, inflation pressures and labor turmoil are major threats to the economy.
