Gabon`s sardine import market in 2023 continued to be dominated by top exporters Morocco, China, India, Indonesia, and Netherlands, with high concentration levels indicated by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI). Despite a moderate compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.48%, the market experienced a notable decline with a growth rate of -23.21% in 2023. This suggests a challenging year for sardine imports in Gabon, possibly influenced by various factors such as economic conditions, trade policies, or consumer preferences.

By 2027, the Sardine market in Gabon is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 9.72%, as part of an increasingly competitive Africa region, where Egypt remains at the forefront, supported by South Africa, Ethiopia, Algeria and Nigeria, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
