"Based on the region’s airport statistics, air trade originating in or destined to Africa is estimated at 1,789,000 tonnes in 2011. ...International air trade flows tend to concentrate in a few leading economies among the 57 countries of Africa.

The leading international markets include South Africa, Kenya, Egypt, Nigeria, and Ethiopia, which hold 19.3%, 16.4%, 15.7%, 9.2%, and 7.3% shares of Africa’s international air cargo flows, respectively. All of these leading air cargo markets expanded in 2011, with the exception of Egypt, which contracted 8% due to the civil and economic disruption during the Arab Spring."

The AFRICA brand

Retail. Internet Economy. Tourism. Multimedia. Download.pdf. Plus qu'un distributeur, Thema est LE partenaire des développements internationaux. THEMA* poursuit sa stratégie de distribution et marketing d’offres dites « ethniques », en Europe et à travers le monde, en se positionnant en véritable partenaire du développement à l’international de chaines de télévision à destination des diasporas. De la réalisation d’étude de marché jusqu’à la distribution de la chaîne, la société THEMA est présente sur l’ensemble de la chaîne de valeur. Paris, le 2 avril 2013 Au-delà du mandat de représentation exclusif conclu entre la Télévision Cap verdienne et THEMA c’est un véritable partenariat qui a été mis en place. Un bel exemple de l’amplitude des domaines d’expertise de THEMA qui a su s’entourer de partenaires solides comme Eutelsat. Après identification des différents pays où la diaspora est présente et en adéquation avec les marchés où les offres ethniques sont en pleins essors, THEMA a entamé les négociations commerciales avec les opérateurs.

. * A propos de THEMA. Africa needs purpose built insurance products. Africa does not represent a typical insurance market, which means that insurance companies hoping to succeed in the continent will have to create products tailored to the local markets. To succeed in Africa insurers will need to tackle potential clients’ physical and logistical limitations. How well they are able to deliver financial services to clients dispersed across vast distances in remote places will ultimately determine their market penetration and success. African insurers lack the physical infrastructure of banks and retailers, which makes purpose built insurance products that fill relevant and specific needs at minimum cost, and making clients aware of these products, the key to unlocking Africa’s insurance potential.

Certainly, people with little to no regular income are unlikely to purchase comprehensive insurance products, covering things they barely understand and costing hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars a month. MMI sets its sights on Africa - RISKAFRICA. MMI Holdings Limited (MMI) recently concluded the buyout of FNB Namibia’s stake in its Namibian operations for R350 million. MMI plans to grow its presence in Namibia and announced that it has set aside capital of R500 million to take advantage of further expansion opportunities in Africa. “After allowing for these strategic investments and the payment of the final and special dividends, the group’s healthy capital buffer of R3.3 billion at 30 June 2012 positions the group strongly, ahead of the changes to a new risk based capital regime, Solvency Assessment and Management,” says CEO of MMI, Nicolaas Kruger.

Commenting on the group’s performance, Kruger says, “Our embedded value has increased to R32.5 billion. Our return on embedded value, which gives an overall picture of how we are growing value as a business, was 11.3 per cent.” MMI Holdings Limited (MMI) posted its results to June 2012 this week, with core headline earnings increasing by 12 per cent to R2.96 billion.
