This research service examines the automotive lubricant markets in South Africa and Nigeria. Following the assumptions of slow economic growth rates, slow GDP growth rates, and oil price volatility, the forecast predicts a decline in the revenue and volume demand growth rates for automotive lubricants in the short term. Driving overall market growth in automotive lubricants is the shift in the middle-class population and the subsequent increase in vehicle consumption. Government legislation and OEM requirements are shifting the industry towards synthetic lubricants that are higher quality, specialized, and bio-based. Engine oil and the other lubricants applications are forecast to be an area with high growth opportunity.
