Abstract:  
Sub-Saharan Africa enjoys the highest growth rate in the world. A group of countries (Nigeria, Gabon, Angola, Ghana,Ivory Coast, Cameroon, and Kenya) are on the same path as Southeast Asia in the 80s. Their growth will unfold even faster, driven by lavish Oil and Gas production and considerable mining operations. Less known are 40 vehicle assembly plants in 10 of these countries, 30+ foundries and forges, a dozen of significant shipyards, gas bottle reconditioning, corrosion protection and structural steel processing.
