The Africa used car market is valued at USD 40.45 billion and is expected to surpass the market value of USD 61.24 billion by the end of the forecast period by registering a CAGR of 8.65%.
The African used car market is moderately fragmented, with a few key players in the market being Al-Futtaim Group, Autocheck, Abdul Latif Jameel Motors, Yallamotor, Carzami, AutoTrader, Cars 4 Africa, and others. The majority of players in the African used car market engage in fierce competition by employing a variety of developments and strategies to capture market share and attract customers. For instance,
In April 2023, Nigeria-based car selling and buying platform Autocheck acquired a majority stake in Egypt's used cars marketplace, AutoTager. The acquisition enables Autochek to deepen its presence in North Africa, starting with Egypt, the second-largest automotive market in Africa. The company currently has a presence in nine countries across East, West, and North Africa.
In September 2022, Egypt-based Carzami Inc., an online retailer for quality used cars and vehicle financing, announced the close of a pre-seed round led by contact financial holding, together with a scalable inventory financing facility, which it plans to use to transform Egypt's used car market targeting USD 30 million in revenue by 2024.
