Regions with a high burden of malaria, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia, drive the demand for malaria diagnostics. The need for accurate and timely diagnosis is crucial for effective disease management and control.

Expansion into Emerging Markets: Emerging economies in Asia, Latin America, and Africa presents major growth opportunities for malaria diagnostics due to increasing healthcare expenditure, rising awareness about infectious diseases, and government initiatives to combat malaria. Companies can capitalize on these markets by offering cost-effective and culturally sensitive diagnostic solutions tailored to local needs.

Based on the geography, the global malaria diagnostics market is segmented into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Middle East & Africa is considered as the leading region in the global malaria diagnostics market. The African region had the highest revenue share of 88.17% in 2022. P. falciparum is the most prevalent malarial parasite in this region and was accounted for an estimated 99% of all cases in Africa. According to the WHO, an estimated 92.0% of global malaria cases and 93% of global malarial deaths were recorded in this region. These facts are indicative of the rising prevalence of malaria in Africa. This region bears the highest burden of malaria globally, with a substantial portion of malaria cases and deaths occurring here. Factors contributing to the dominance of this segment include the endemic nature of malaria in many countries across Africa, where the disease is a major public health concern. Additionally, limited access to healthcare resources, including diagnostic facilities and trained personnel, often demands for the use of RDTs and other point-of-care diagnostics in resource-constrained settings. Moreover, international organizations, governments and non-profit organizations have been actively involved in scaling up malaria control and elimination efforts in the region, thereby driving the demand for malaria diagnostics.
