List of companies of South Africa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
South Africa is the southernmost country in Africa. It is the 25th-largest country in the world by land area, and with close to 60 million people, is the world's 24th-most populous nation.
The World Bank classifies South Africa as an upper-middle-income economy, and a newly industrialised country.[1][2] Its economy is the second-largest in Africa, and the 34th-largest in the world.[3] In terms of purchasing power parity, South Africa has the seventh-highest per capita income in Africa. However, poverty and inequality remain widespread, with about a quarter of the population unemployed and living on less than US$1.25 a day.[4][5] Nevertheless, South Africa has been identified as a middle power in international affairs, and maintains significant regional influence.[6][7]
