Customer preferences: Customers in Mozambique are increasingly turning to digital solutions in the healthcare sector due to the convenience and accessibility they offer. With the rise of smartphone usage and internet penetration in the country, there is a growing demand for digital treatment and care services such as contraception/fertility apps, medication checker apps, online pharmacies, and smart health monitoring devices.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Digital Treatment & Care market in Mozambique is the increasing popularity of online pharmacies. As access to traditional brick-and-mortar pharmacies can be limited in certain areas, online pharmacies provide a convenient way for consumers to purchase medications and healthcare products.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The growing middle-class population in Mozambique, coupled with increasing disposable income levels, is driving the demand for healthcare services, including digital treatment and care solutions. Additionally, government initiatives to improve healthcare infrastructure and services are creating a conducive environment for the growth of the Digital Treatment & Care market in the country.
