South Africa is one of the most sophisticated and promising emerging global markets. The unique combination of a highly developed first-world infrastructure and its geographic connection to the entire African continent make it a natural place for IFP African Headquarters in Johannesburg .

With English as their main language, a number of important factors make South Africa an ideal location for expanding Ministries. Their formal Banks, for example, comply with International Banking Standards and offer one of the most sophisticated Banking systems in the world. The costs of operating in South Africa compare favorably to other emerging world markets in areas like labor, land, rental, human resources, transportation and general living expenses.

Perhaps most important of all is its access to the world's second largest continent, living in one of the most transforming moments in history. Possibly the most fertile ground for the Gospel anywhere in the world, the growth of Evangelical Christianity in Africa has been exponential. That growth is expected to be even greater in the next 10 years.

What in the past have been "harvest fields" are now contributors to the "harvest forces", a group of people that need the nurture of supportive Ministries to partner with in the task of world evangelism.

Through the portal of South Africa, Ministries can reach almost 900 million people throughout the entire continent of Africa alone, as well as millions more in several other nations.
