Cote d'Ivoire: Food Service - Hotel Restaurant Institutional Annual
Côte d’Ivoire is the gateway to the Francophone West African market. U.S.-origin food products' presence in the Ivorian market is low compared to that of European suppliers. Nevertheless, this market offers American food exporters good potential. Côte d’Ivoire, with GDP growth in 2024 projected at reaching about 7 percent, makes this country one of the fastest growing on the African continent and in the world. It benefits from a youthful, growing middle-class. The country is also the world's largest producer and exporter of cocoa beans, as well as counts with UNESCO World Heritage Sites, that include the likes of Grand-Bassam, Comoé National Park, and Taï National Park. All of which attract business and leisure travelers. Côte d’Ivoire is Africa's third most popular destination with business travelers, trailing just behind Nigeria and Morocco. Business travel accounts for over two-thirds of tourism spending, mostly coming from regional conferences and exhibitions.
