According to Next Move Strategy Consulting, the Africa Disabled & Elderly Assistive Device Market, is on track to more than double—to USD 1076 million by 2030—with a healthy CAGR of 9.8% by 2030.

The Africa disabled and elderly assistive device sector spans a wide spectrum—from mobility aids and hearing technology to home-care furniture and bathroom safety devices. These devices are primarily designed to support individuals with disabilities and older adults in maintaining autonomy, preventing injuries, improving daily living, and fostering social inclusion. Growth is propelled by rising disability prevalence, ageing demographics, and escalating investment in accessible healthcare.

Key Growth Drivers

  1. Ageing Population
    As life expectancy increases across Africa, a rising segment of elderly citizens is facing age-related mobility, sensory, and chronic health challenges—driving demand for solutions like mobility aids, medical furniture, and monitoring systems.
  2. Rise in Disability Prevalence
    Chronic diseases, road injuries, and communicable illnesses continue to elevate disability rates. Assistive devices are essential to improving independence and reducing reliance on caregivers.
  3. Rapid Technological Innovation
    Advances in low-cost rehabilitation tech, smart wearables, AR-based devices, and smartphone-connected aids are making assistive solutions more accessible and effective.
  4. Government & NGO Campaigns
    Initiatives promoting inclusive healthcare and universal design—along with donor-funded clinics and community care programs—are expanding assistive device penetration.

Market Challenges

  • High Product Cost
    Assistive devices remain financially out of reach for many Africans, particularly in low-income and rural regions.
  • Limited Accessibility
    Infrastructural gaps and uneven service delivery amplify regional disparities in device availability.
  • Skills Shortage
    A lack of qualified technicians and rehabilitation specialists hinders fitting, maintenance, and patient education.
