5 Emerging Economies In Africa You Need To Know About.
Africa has been the most underrated continent in recent history. Although it has a small population, it is rich in natural resources and has a large number of different cultures and languages. However, many people are unaware of this stunning country’s potential. The following five countries are examples of African economies that will change the world in the coming years.

Nigeria
Nigeria is Africa’s most populous nation, and the continent’s largest economy. Nigeria has a GDP of $424 billion, and is set to grow by 7% in 2017. Nigeria has a booming technology sector, with the third-largest number of internet users in Africa.

The country is also ranked third globally for mobile money transfers with $28 billion sent last year.

Algeria
Algeria is the largest country in Africa. It’s also one of the fastest growing economies of all African nations. Algeria has a population of less than 40 million people, but it is second only to Nigeria in oil production. Algerian GDP growth in 2012 was at 6.2%.

Digital marketing is used to promote products or services through electronic channels, such as social media, search engines, and websites.

Morocco
Morocco is one of the most stable countries in Africa. It has a fairly large population of over 33 million people, and it’s on track to become an African economic powerhouse by 2030.

The country has the third-largest economy on the continent. Moroccan GDP exceeded $100 billion in 2017. The country has proven itself to be a popular tourist destination, with more than 10 million visitors coming annually over the past decade. Morocco also boasts a vibrant agricultural sector that produces crops like wheat, barley, olives, and citrus fruits.

South Africa
South Africa is a country with beautiful beaches, the world’s largest natural fresh water resource, and an impressive GDP. It also has one of the highest rates of home ownership in the world.

The African nation’s GDP growth rate is at 2.8 percent. The World Bank predicts that South Africa will maintain economic growth through to 2030. Furthermore, it is expected to be one of the fastest growing countries in the next decade.

Although South Africa has a high unemployment rate, it also has a large number of highly sought-after engineering jobs. There are more job opportunities there than any other African country, which makes it a promising place for those who want work or invest in this continent.

In addition to being a hub for engineering jobs, South Africa is also great for those who want to start their own business as well as those who want to create wealth with real estate investment opportunities and shares in major companies on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.

Kenya.
Kenya is one of the most developed countries in Africa, with a GDP per capita of $1,640. The country has been able to maintain an environment that encourages economic growth and entrepreneurship.

In addition to a strong economy, Kenya has a growing technology sector. In 2017, Nairobi was home to 86 internet cafes and 1M broadband users. This number is expected to surpass 2M by 2020.

Kenya’s population is also an important aspect of its economic future. There are only 41 people per square kilometer in Kenya, which means there is plenty of space for urbanization and increased manufacturing without overcrowding the land.
