In the extremely hot climate of Africa, edible ice cubes have become an essential cooling aid in people's lives. By analyzing the distribution of regional retail convenience stores and comparing the demand of over 1.5 billion people, we have noticed the enormous development potential of convenience stores in the African market for carrying out edible ice factory projects. Not only that, individual businesses account for over 90%, while large chain brands only account for less than 10%. This also means that it contains unlimited opportunities for chain integration and upgrading.
In high growth potential markets in Africa, such as central cities in Egypt, South Africa, Algeria and other regions, due to the high procurement costs, high power consumption and unstable production capacity of small commercial ice machines. a large number of individual retail stores generally rely on local small ice block manufacturers for the purchase of edible ice. But at the same time, it also exposes problems such as untimely ice supply, unstable ice quality and high prices. Therefore, the demand gap for stable, high-quality and low-cost edible ice supply among individual merchant groups is increasing. This not only promotes the strategic transformation and upgrading of a group of existing ice factories, expands production capacity and seizes the continuously expanding market for edible ice supply, but also confirms that the African edible ice factory industry is a potential market worth entering.
