Forecast grocery retail spend through to 2020
The rate of urbanization in Tanzania will almost double through to 2050, from 28.6% in 2015 to 50.0% in 2050. The number of urban consumers will more than double over the same period, from 15.0m in 2015 through to 64.6m in 2050. Especially in Dar es Salaam, this growth will mostly come from poorer and aspirational consumers in unplanned, slum housing.
We consider Tanzania one of the top 10 grocery retail battlegrounds in Africa. Tanzania is often overlooked in favor of the larger and more established Kenyan market. Compared to Kenya, Tanzania offers a more open landscape for international investors because of the relative lack of retail consolidation.
In Tanzania we estimate that modern trade accounts for only 10% of sales by value.
At the moment, Shoppers, Shrijee’s and Nakumatt all occupy a similar position –larger format supermarkets, mostly in Dar es Salaam, aimed at the middle class and with a large range of products imported from Kenya, Dubai, India and Europe.
