The African Economy Review explores the post-AGOA reality and what it means for Africa’s trade and global business.

When the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) expired in September 2025, it marked the end of 25 years of preferential access to the U.S. market. This episode analyses what comes next for African economies: higher tariffs, disrupted supply chains, job losses, and the urgent need for new partnerships.

Host Gabriel Wekesa unpacks the data behind this transition – from Kenya’s textile sector and Lesotho’s apparel industry to South Africa’s automotive exports. He also examines how the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the European Union could shape the continent’s new trade future.
