Following decades of slow growth, Africa has begun pursuing economic reforms and is expected to grow by 6% in the coming years. The healthcare sector is one of the major industries beginning to make an impact in Africa, showing signs of notable progress as the quality of hospitals, professionals, and access to medical equipment is improving.
Amber Nigeria The growth of the middle class in Africa is also expected to continue this year, presenting new opportunities that include a growing demand for private health services and adoption of new technologies. Subsequently, as the health facilities begin upgrading or replacing outdated imaging systems, this will also provide immense opportunities for those selling in the refurbished medical equipment market.
Currently, most of Africa’s hospital equipment and supplies are imported, and there exists a solid need for the supply of a wide range of hospital equipment, instrumentation, and machinery. In Kenya itself, private health institutions account for 60% of total medical equipment and supplies.
Typically, private practitioners require high-end medical equipment, but the public sector acquires less costly equipment. Nonetheless, being a price-sensitive market, African buyers are always on the lookout for high-quality, competitively priced medical equipment to meet their requirements.
