IMPACT STORIES

A vibrant manufacturing environment, unlocking extensive opportunities

Africa’s population is projected to double by 2050, and the working population is expected to increase by 800 million. Africa will need to create approximately 18 million jobs annually to provide sufficient employment opportunities for this population. The manufacturing sector has the potential to provide millions of better and more inclusive jobs across the continent, while building resilient economies. Over the past five years, Manufacturing Africa has been dedicated to unlocking this potential. Supported by UKaid from the UK government, we provide expert assistance that turns ambition into tangible, sustainable growth.
