AFRICA PMI™
AFRICA PURCHASING MANAGERS INDEX™
Purchasing Managers Indices are rapidly be-
coming the most prominent economic data
releases internationally, as a reliable gauge and
early indicator of the underlying economic ac-
tivity. The Africa Business Purchasing Manag-
ers Index (Africa PMI) follows the logic and
methodology of the PMI confidence indices.
The Africa PMI applies the same logic with a
breakdown in manufacturing and non-manu-
facturing (services) business confidence for the
entire African continent. For clients we have
monthly indexes available.

AFRICA PURCHASING MANAGERS INDEX™
Purchase executives of the African Business Panel are invited to
complete the Africa PMI survey on a monthly basis. Depending on
the industry classification of their organization, responses are
attributed to the manufacturing and service indices.
The Africa PMI is a composite index based on five of the individual
indexes with the Delivery Times index inverted so that it moves in a
comparable direction.
New Orders - 0.3
Production - 0.25
Employment - 0.2
Suppliers’ Delivery Times - 0.15
Stock of Items Purchased - 0.1
THE FOLLOWING WEIGHTS ARE BEING USED:
Business Panel
AFRICA
AFRICA PMI™
MANUFACTURING AND NON-MANUFACTURING
Respondents are asked every month to report the change (‘decrease’, ‘same’ or ‘increase’) from the previous
month for the following indicators.
The equal weight diffusion indices of these indicators result in the headline Africa PMI (Non-) Manufacturing
index. The resulting PMI figure (which can be from 0 to 100) has an index level of 50 and above indicates ex-
pansion in the manufacturing sector, below 50 the index is contracting.

AFRICA
“Especially in the last century, Africa was regarded as a dark continent primarily because of the
dearth of information that existed about the region. Thanks to a range of factors, in this century,
Africa is now seen to be not just opening up but coming up both socially and economically. One of
the main reasons for this is that through market research, more information and knowledge is now
available about the continent. With this information and knowledge, all of Africa’s stakeholders are
better equipped to grapple with and make the right decisions about the opportunities and challenges
that exist in our beloved continent. The Africa Business Panel can support market research in Africa
by facilitating, for stakeholders, online access to the professional population in the region. With digi-
talization, online access to relevant target profiles is an increasing need as it enables information to
be gathered quickly and cost-efficiently so that based on this, decisions about the market are made
faster.”
Philip Okullo – Country manager Ghana at Ipsos

  • 17. “Especially in the last century, Africa was regarded as a dark continent primarily because of the dearth of information that existed about the region. Thanks to a range of factors, in this century, Africa is now seen to be not just opening up but coming up both socially and economically. One of the main reasons for this is that through market research, more information and knowledge is now available about the continent. With this information and knowledge, all of Africa’s stakeholders are better equipped to grapple with and make the right decisions about the opportunities and challenges that exist in our beloved continent. The Africa Business Panel can support market research in Africa by facilitating, for stakeholders, online access to the professional population in the region. With digi- talization, online access to relevant target profiles is an increasing need as it enables information to be gathered quickly and cost-efficiently so that based on this, decisions about the market are made faster.” Philip Okullo – Country manager Ghana at Ipsos
