Doing business in Africa is challenging and rewarding

A difficult 2014 has done little to tarnish sub-Saharan Africa's appeal as a
business destination for South African companies looking to expand their businesses.
But to succeed in this challenging and rewarding environment, companies must be
willing to weather volatility and adapt the way that they do business.

 

That's the word from Gerhard Hartman, Head of Department at Sage HR Africa. He says
that with the IMF projecting growth in excess of 5% for the region as a whole in
2014 and 2015, sub-Saharan Africa continues to offer a range of exciting
possibilities for businesses seeking to grow into new markets.
