Recently, smartphones have become incredibly popular all around the world. Small handheld devices like laptops, ultra-mobile PCs, and notebook PCs are gradually being replaced by them. Low product costs, innovative features, and convenient access to high-speed internet are primarily to blame for this. Recently, there has also been a big increase in demand for mobile phone accessories like chargers, USB cables, and protective cases. Due to the large number of mobile users and the quick rise in smartphone use in the region, the market for mobile phone accessories in Africa is growing quickly. In addition, the cost of cellphones has decreased over time, increasing demand for them. Additionally, as mobile phone usage in the area rises, so does the need for mobile phone accessories like chargers, memory cards, and batteries. Additionally, increasing regional expenditure on internet and television services is anticipated to fuel market expansion for mobile phone accessories in Africa throughout the course of the forecast year. As a result, firms now fund initiatives through ads. Effective product advertisement is essential because most people don't need these goods.
The market for Africa mobile phone accessories is projected to expand at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2023 to 2030.
