How Manu Chandaria Mastered the African Market

Africa is the next frontier for global business, presenting a rare growth opportunity in a stagnant world. But navigating this complex continent with more than 1 billion people can be exceedingly difficult, and many businesses have failed to make a lasting impression in the region. Kenyan business tycoon Manu Chandaria, chairman and CEO of the multi-billion dollar privately held Comcraft Group, explains in an interview with Knowledge@Wharton how he mastered the African market and how others can follow his lead.

Manu Chandaria was my former employer at Mabati Rolling Mills years back after completing school.He is a great mind and his business empire operation model inspired me to be a great personality and entrepreneur today.

What a terrific interviewer! Asking all the right questions and probing even deeper to get further insight. Manu also gave superb answers. A true master class on business in Africa.

I understand this guy owns only 6 pairs of suits. This tells you the humility this guy has. In my considered view he's wise. At some point he was just an ordinary man but with every struggle and calculated steps he made it out.
