Südafrika und Nigeria haben das höchste Internethandelspotential in Afrika

Der neue 'Africa Internet & B2C E-Commerce Report 2012' des Hamburger sekundären Marktforschungsunternehmens yStats.com beleuchtet detailliert die Entwicklungen von Internetnutzung und B2C E-Commerce auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent. Dazu findet eine Aufbereitung von Informationen in Bezug auf Internet und B2C E-Commerce zum Gesamtkontinent und zu 15 einzelnen Ländern des afrikanischen Kontinents statt.

Das afrikanische Land mit den meisten Internetnutzern war im Dezember 2011 Nigeria mit über 40 millionen Nutzern, gefolgt von Ägypten und Marokko. Währenddessen war Marokko mit beinahe 50% das Land mit der höchsten Internetdurchdringung. Südafrika dagegen stellte das Land mit den erfolgreichsten B2C E-Commerce Plattformen dar. Noch 2011 existierten verschiedene Faktoren auf dem gesamten Kontinent, die den Onlinehandel hemmten, wie beispielsweise die geringe Internetdurchdringung oder die Fokussierung auf Bargeld und persönliche Beziehungen. Neuerdings gewinnen jedoch mobile Zahlungsmethoden an Beliebtheit, sodass das Wachstum im Onlinehandel bereits 2012 zunehmend erleichtert wird.


Steigende Umsätze im B2C E-Commerce auf den wichtigsten afrikanischen Märkten

In Südafrika stieg der Anteil der Onlinekäufer an den Internetnutzern zwischen 2009 und 2011 um einige Prozentpunkte an. Dabei gab 2011 eine deutliche Mehrheit niedrigere Preise als ausschlaggebend für einen Onlinekauf an. Kenia war 2011 aufgrund günstiger Mobilfunktarife und zunehmender Bandbreite einer der am schnellsten wachsenden Internetmärkte in Afrika. Die Zahl der Internetnutzer und ihr Anteil an der Gesamtbevölkerung stiegen zwischen 2010 und 2011 kontinuierlich im niedrigen zweistelligen Prozentbereich an. Ebenso nahmen in Marokko die Anzahl der Internetanschlüsse und der Umsatz im B2C E-Commerce zwischen 2010 und 2011 um fast drei Viertel zu. Aufgrund des verbesserten Internetzugangs und einer wachsender Anzahl an Onlineshops stieg hier 2011 auch die Anzahl der Kreditkarten. Es wird darüber hinaus erwartet, dass in Nigeria 2013 bereits mindestens ein Drittel der Einwohner direkten Internetzugang haben werden. Dort verkaufen große Onlinehändler wie Amazon, eBay und der Südafrikanische Internethändler Kalahari zwar ihre Produkte, allerdings bestehen Beschränkungen bezüglich Liefer- und Zahlungsoptionen.


Großes Potenzial auf den übrigen afrikanischen Märkten vorhanden

In Ägypten kaufte im Februar 2012 fast ein Viertel der Internetnutzer online ein oder nutzte das Internet, um Rechnungen zu bezahlen. Demgegenüber fand Anfang 2012 beispielsweise in Algerien, welches deutlich weniger Internetnutzer verzeichnet als Ägypten, wenig Onlinehandel statt, da Barzahlungen immer noch dominant waren und kaum andere Zahlungsmöglichkeiten existierten. Die steigende Zahl der Internetnutzer in Uganda 2012 wird voraussichtlich die Nutzung von Services wie Onlineshopping und -banking steigen lassen. In Ghana wiederum wurde der B2C E-Commerce durch die geringe Internetdurchdringung und den Mangel an geeigneten Liefer- und Zahlungsmethoden behindert. Nach dem 'Africa Internet & B2C E-Commerce Report 2012' von yStats.com herrschte 2011 bezüglich des B2C E-Commerce insbesondere in Libyen Angst vor Betrug. Währenddessen nutzte in Namibia 2011 mehr als die Hälfte der Internetuser ein Handy für den Internetzugriff — genau wie in Tansania. Zusammenfassend kann festgestellt werden, dass Afrika langsam und sicher Fortschritte in den Bereichen Internetnutzung und Onlinehandel verzeichnen kann.


KEY FINDINGS

- With more than 40 million users, Nigeria was the African nation with the highest number of Internet users in December 2011, followed by Egypt and Morocco.
- In South Africa, the share of online shoppers on Internet users has continued to grow strongly until 2011. Lower prices were a decisive factor for the B2C E-Commerce development.
- Kenya showed strong growth potential, as it was the fastest growing Internet market in Africa in 2011, due to low mobile phone charges and increasing broadband capacity.
- In Morocco, the number of Internet connections as well as B2C E-Commerce revenues grew strongly between 2010 and 2011.
- In Nigeria, at least one third of the population is expected to have direct Internet access by 2013.

Press Release
Hamburg, May 24th, 2012

South Africa and Nigeria with highest Online Shopping Potential in Africa

The new 'Africa Internet & B2C E-Commerce Report 2012' by Hamburg-based secondary market research firm yStats.com takes a close look at Internet use and B2C E-Commerce development on the African continent. In addition to presenting data on Internet and B2C E-Commerce for the entire continent, facts and figures about 15 individual countries of the African continent are compiled.

With more than 40 million users, Nigeria was the African nation with the highest number of Internet users in December 2011, followed by Egypt and Morocco. Meanwhile, Internet penetration was the highest in Morocco with almost 50%. South Africa on the other hand, was the country with the most successful B2C E-Commerce platforms. In 2011, various factors still curbed online retail on the entire continent, such as the low Internet penetration and the focus on cash transactions and personal relationships. Recently, however, mobile payment methods have become increasingly popular, promoting B2C E-Commerce growth in 2012.


Growing B2C E-Commerce revenue in the most important African markets

In South Africa, the share of online shoppers on the total number of Internet users has continued to grow slowly between 2009 and 2011. In 2011, a clear majority cited lower prices as a decisive factor for making purchases online. Kenya was the fastest growing Internet market in Africa in 2011, due to low mobile phone charges and increasing broadband capacity. The number of Internet users and their share on the entire population continuously grew between 2010 and 2011 by a low double digit percentage figure. At the same time, the number of Internet connections and B2C E-Commerce revenue in Morocco grew between 2010 and 2011 by almost three quarters. Due to improved Internet access and a growing number of online shops, the number of credit cards also increased in 2011. Furthermore, according to forecasts at least one third of the population in Nigeria is expected to have direct Internet access by 2013. Although large online retailers such as Amazon, eBay and South African online shop Kalahari sell their products there, there are still limitations when it comes to shipping and payment options.


Great potential in other African markets

In February 2012, almost one quarter of all Internet users in Egypt shopped online or used the Internet to pay their bills. Meanwhile, Algeria with its lower Internet user rate saw only little online retail in early 2012, because cash transactions were still predominant there, while other payment options were hardly available. The increasing number of Internet users in Uganda is expected to spur the use of services such as online shopping and online banking in 2012. In Ghana, B2C E-Commerce was curbed by the low Internet penetration rate and a lack of suitable shipping and payment options. According to the 'Africa Internet & B2C E-Commerce Report 2012' by yStats.com, in 2011, especially in Libya people were afraid of B2C E-Commerce related scams. Meanwhile, more than half of all Internet users in Namibia accessed the Internet via mobile phone, much like in Tanzania. Conclusively, it can be stated Africa is making slow but steady progress in terms of Internet usage and B2C E-Commerce.


KEY FINDINGS

- With more than 40 million users, Nigeria was the African nation with the highest number of Internet users in December 2011, followed by Egypt and Morocco.
- In South Africa, the share of online shoppers on Internet users has continued to grow strongly until 2011. Lower prices were a decisive factor for the B2C E-Commerce development.

- In Morocco, the number of Internet connections as well as B2C E-Commerce revenues grew strongly between 2010 and 2011.
- In Nigeria, at least one third of the population is expected to have direct Internet access by 2013.
