About Us
Your Agents of Growth – Bridging the Gap Between Africa and the World.
EMSP Group is a diversified management consultancy firm that specialises in supply chain management services with a focus on global sourcing & procurement; demand planning; growth management strategy & implementation; and new market entry & global distribution. We offer business-to-business (B2B) services that provide comprehensive sourcing capabilities, market access and technical expertise through our extensive client network, which we leverage to develop future-proof procurement strategies, long-term supply chain planning, and profitable growth strategies.
We work globally across developing economies primarily within Africa with a focus on the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the East African Community (EAC). Our main aim is to empower regional developing economies and growing markets through global integration and competitiveness with the goal of increasing their competitive capabilities via access to international markets.
We are firm believers that a procurement and management consultancy should stay tightly connected with all its clients along the supply and value addition chain to maintain long-term cooperative relationships, which is why we continuously build up an extensive Pan-African network. Our industry engagement within numerous sectors is continuously evolving across industries and provides us with both a macro and micro perspective on the entire commodities pipeline.
Our bases in SADC and Europe enable us to support our clients in navigating the social, cultural, legal and economic challenges to continual growth. By employing local expertise, we give our clients a unique insight into the context, culture, regulations, standards, labour laws and working practices in the countries we operate. This ensures that the services we offer are well-balanced and easily accessible, while respecting local legislations, cultures and sensitivities.
This enables us to effectively capitalize on opportunities throughout the supply value chain, ultimately providing us an added advantage over competitors. Our approach towards our clients is to provide data driven, total cost-saving and streamlined solutions with the goal of ensuring international competitiveness.
