Objectives

The client commissioned a project to understand, strategize, and ultimately grow in the DRC market. Due to the country’s size and inefficient processes, the client struggled to gather the necessary information for their growth strategy.

Our approach

The project involved deploying research personnel across various regions of the country. Our team reviewed existing literature to identify gaps and develop research methods. Due to time and budget constraints from the client, we focused on three key regions.

Data collection in the DRC differs significantly from that in neighboring countries, necessitating adjustments to our approach to address local conditions. Our strategy emphasized data collection, market analysis, and practical implementation, with growth strategies informed by rigorous empirical assessments.

Results

The projects helped the client understand how to enter and grow in the market by clearly defining actionable steps and timelines. As a result, the client successfully entered the market and is now providing fortification solutions nationwide.
