What have you accomplished since January? 

If you believe you can achieve even more this year, keep reading to explore how to capitalize on these opportunities. 

As always, I’m here to guide you in your investments.  

Let’s get started… 

Trend 1 – New sourcing markets  

The world is changing at an unprecedented pace, with discussions around trade wars and tariffs becoming commonplace. Amidst this turmoil, there lies significant opportunity for African markets. 

I recently spoke with a contact in Canada who is actively seeking new sourcing markets. The good news is that African markets are likely to remain under the radar in the current global landscape—this is where we can step in and make a strong impact. 

From fruits, herbs, crafts all to resources African products are in demand. However, the challenge lies in connecting local producers in Africa with buyers in Canada. 

This could be your chance to bridge that gap. And remember, this opportunity isn’t limited to Canada alone! 

Trend 2 – Digital nomad visa 

The trend of attracting people to spend more time in African countries is growing. Recently, nations like Mauritius, Rwanda, Seychelles, Kenya, and the island of Zanzibar have introduced digital nomad visas. 

This presents a unique opportunity: these newcomers need accommodation, dining options, and activities to enjoy during their stay. If you know the country well, you can capitalize on this demand. If you even live in the digital nomad’s home country, that’s an added advantage—you’ll have already established trust. 

Trend 3 – High interest rates  

This may not initially seem like an opportunity, but consider this perspective: high interest rates in many African countries have led to a rise in distress sales, creating valuable investment opportunities. 

By browsing online real estate listings and car dealerships, you’ll likely come across deals that seem too good to be true. A closer look often reveals that these sellers are in distress, presenting a chance for savvy investors to capitalize on the situation. 

Now, I’d like to hear from you: what opportunities are you exploring to earn extra income in Africa?
