Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) is the largest economy of the West African Economic and Monetary Union and a regional base for many international companies operating in francophone West Africa.
Why Amsterdam and Côte d’Ivoire?
The Netherlands is one of Côte d’Ivoire’s largest export markets, and Amsterdam gives us direct access to the European companies and investors active in West Africa. Côte d’Ivoire is the economic centre of francophone West Africa and the region’s natural entry point.
For us, the connection is also personal. One of our partners has roots in both countries, and the firm works across both every day. Abidjan is only one to two hours behind Amsterdam.
