In 2023, Gabon continued to rely on a diverse range of countries for hardware imports, with China, USA, France, Tunisia, and Italy leading the pack. The low concentration of the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a well-diversified market. However, the industry experienced a significant decline with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -18.26% and a growth rate of -31.45%. This highlights the challenges faced by hardware importers in Gabon and suggests a need for strategic adjustments to navigate the changing market dynamics.

The Hardware market in Gabon is projected to grow at a growing growth rate of 5.69% by 2027, highlighting the country's increasing focus on advanced technologies within the Africa region, where Egypt holds the dominant position, followed closely by South Africa, Ethiopia, Algeria and Nigeria, shaping overall regional demand.

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.
