The American Football market in Tanzania has seen limited growth, impacted by factors such as low popularity of the sport in the country, lack of infrastructure and resources, and high competition from other popular sports. Despite this, efforts are being made to promote the sport and increase its visibility, with the potential for growth in the future as more resources and support are allocated to the market.
Customer preferences: As the popularity of American football grows in Tanzania, there has been a significant increase in the demand for digital media coverage of the sport. With the rise of social media and streaming platforms, fans are increasingly relying on digital channels to access live games, highlights, and other related content. Furthermore, the younger demographic in Tanzania is more digitally savvy and is more likely to consume American football media through digital platforms than traditional television networks. This trend is also seen in the American market, where there has been a shift towards online streaming services for sports content. This highlights the changing preferences of consumers towards digital media as their primary source of American football coverage.
Trends in the market: In Tanzania, there is a growing demand for American football content, with an increase in viewership and engagement on social media platforms. In the United States, the American football media market is seeing a rise in streaming services, with major sports networks offering online streaming options for their games. This trend is also reflected in Tanzania, where there is a growing preference for online streaming of American football games. This shift towards digital media has significant implications for industry stakeholders, as it allows for a wider reach and potential for increased revenue through advertising and subscription models. Furthermore, with the rising popularity of American football globally, there is potential for expansion and partnerships within the industry, creating new opportunities for growth.
Local special circumstances: In Tanzania, the American Football Media Market is relatively small and underdeveloped compared to other regional markets. The countrys lack of interest in American football and limited media infrastructure contribute to this slow growth. However, the market has potential for growth due to the countrys increasing urbanization and access to technology. In contrast, the American Football Media Market in the United States is well-established and highly competitive, with a diverse range of media platforms catering to the large fan base. Factors such as the countrys high disposable income, cultural obsession with sports, and extensive media coverage have contributed to the dominance of American football in the US Sports market.
Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growth of the American Football Media Market is heavily influenced by macroeconomic factors in both Tanzania and the United States. On a global level, the overall growth of the Sports market and the rising popularity of American football as a sport are major drivers for the growth of the American Football Media Market. Nationally, economic health and fiscal policies play a crucial role in determining the purchasing power and disposable income of consumers, which in turn impacts their spending on media and entertainment. Other relevant financial indicators such as consumer confidence, inflation rates, and unemployment rates also have a significant influence on the markets performance. In Tanzania, with a growing economy and increasing middle-class population, there is a growing demand for high-quality sports media content, creating a favorable environment for the American Football Media Market. Similarly, in the United States, where American football is deeply ingrained in the countrys culture, the strong economy and high consumer spending power drive the demand for diverse and engaging media coverage of the sport.

Market sizes are determined through a top-down approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per ticket, price on sport goods). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function or linear forecasting, as it fits the development of either strong growing markets or more sophistacted and saturated markets, such as soccer in Europe.Additional notes:
The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is considered at a country-specific level. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development). We also account for the different cycles of international tournaments, such as world cups or continent cups. Consumer Insights data is reweighted for representativeness.
