    Report Coverage

    This report on the wholesale and retail of food in Angola includes information on the state and size of the industry and various factors that influence it including the currency, commodity prices and the state of imports. There are profiles of 10 companies including Nosso Super, which is owned by the Angolan government but privately managed, South Africa’s Shoprite and the Swiss Webcor Group, which operates import and distribution company Angoalissar and a smaller supermarket. Others include Zahara, which owns the Kero brand and Contidis, which owns Candando.

    Wholesale and Retail of Food in Angola

    The wholesale and retail of food in Angola contributes over 18% to GDP and, including the large informal market, creates over 1.7 million jobs. Heavy investment in supermarkets and shopping malls saw the formal market share of food sales increase from less than 5% in 2000 to between 20% and 30% in 2019. But expansion has slowed since 2016.

    Small Formal Sector

    The food trade in Angola remains dominated by informal channels, with open-air markets, small traditional stores, and street vendors accounting for between 70% and 80% of the market. Formal wholesalers and retailers operate fewer than 200 stores. The grocery market is still far from mature, and represents a significant growth opportunity.

    Multiple Challenges

    The grocery market has been seriously affected by the recession as employment, consumer spending, and middle-class growth are closely tied to economic performance, and dependent on the oil sector. Risks from industry players are exacerbated by Angola’s reliance on food imports as foreign exchange shortages and exchange rate volatility can have a significant effect on food inflation, input prices, and the cost of rental space. Many large retailers have struggled to maintain their full product range and have had to subsidise food prices, undermining their profits. Poor infrastructure complicates supply chains and constrains store expansion beyond key cities.

    Report Coverage

    The Wholesale and Retail of Food in Angola investigates the local food market, government attempts to lessen the country’s reliance on food imports and factors influencing the success of the formal food wholesale and retail sector. The report also profiles seven retailers, including the Portuguese Teixeira Duarte group trading under the Maxi and Dakaza brands and South African giant, Shoprite Holdings, which opened its first store in Angola in 2007.

    The Angolan Market

    Between 70% and 80% of trade in the food market is undertaken by the informal sector via street vendors and unregulated markets that tend to specialise in one product category. The formal sector, which comprises a mix of small neighbourhood markets, grocery stores, specialist high-end food stores and supermarkets, is encroaching rapidly on the informal sector with the expansion of stores owned by Angolans, as well as stores owned by foreign retail chains.

    Dependence on Imports

    Angola’s food industry was almost entirely dependent on imports in the 1980s and until 2013 it was estimated that more than 90% of all food products in retail stores was imported. However, this percentage has decreased to an estimated 60% as a result of import tariffs on a variety of foodstuffs as well as substantial government and private investment in the production of vegetable oils and soft drinks as well as brewing, flour milling and sugar processing.

    Challenging Conditions

    Angola has a generally unfavourable regulatory environment and it is difficult to do business in the country. In the World Bank’s Doing Business 2015 index it was ranked 181st out of 189 countries, scoring particularly poorly on resolving insolvency, enforcing contracts, getting credit, trading across borders, registering property, getting electricity, and paying taxes. Although food retail is regarded as a high risk market because of state bureaucracy and corruption, the many infrastructural challenges and major skills shortages, the formal food sector is growing. The phenomenal growth of Angola’s oil industry over the last decade, the growth in the country’s middle class and the large increase in population means that spending on food is expected to reach almost US$20bn in 2015.
