Last update: 12 hours ago

Livestock & Meat Exports (Kenya): Kenya launched ANITRAC, a digital animal identification and traceability system, alongside meat value-chain reforms to meet export requirements and boost the sector toward a Sh1trn target.

Digital Lending Crackdown (Nigeria): FCCPC updated its approved loan-app registry (170+ licensed/conditionally approved), warning borrowers against unapproved apps that can lead to harassment, hidden charges and data breaches. Fuel Prices (Nigeria): NNPCL raised petrol by N115/litre to N1,270/litre in Abuja, adding to downstream price volatility. Housing Approvals (South Africa): Johannesburg approved only 3.8% of residential building plans, threatening recovery as affordability and debt pressures bite. Quick Commerce (South Africa): Liquor buying is shifting online as delivery apps replace store trips, with platforms like Checkers Sixty60 leading.

Telecom Infrastructure (Africa): RASCOM urged cross-border investment in fibre and satellite connectivity to improve service in border areas. EV Fleets (South Africa): Commercial EV adoption is set to accelerate as fleet operators chase lower running costs and longer vehicle uptime.
