With the recent addition of two new African TMC partners, the number of markets covered by
ITP in sub-Saharan Africa is now six, all of which are prominent economies.
ITP’s two new partners are in Côte d’Ivoire and Tanzania and both are market leaders in what
are two of the strongest emerging economies in Africa. Côte d’Ivoire was recently described as
“Africa’s new economic powerhouse’ with annual growth of over 8% and also gives ITP a
foothold in French-speaking Africa. Tanzania is also one of the Top Five fastest developing
economies in Africa.
We have long-standing partners in other prominent African markets such as Nigeria, now the
largest economy, South Africa, Kenya and Ghana, which is important for the Mining Sector.
Although there are 54 countries in Africa, with coverage in these six markets, we will be able to
manage 90% of multinational requirements for the region”, said Ian Epps, Director of Partnership
Relations with ITP.
“We would like to add to these of course and we are always open to approaches from other
reliable and experienced corporate agents in other key African markets. For example, Angola is
still a target market but with a challenged economy due to high inflation and devaluation of its
currency”, said Epps.
