About Senegal

[su_gmap address=”Senegal”]

Senegal has the fourth largest economy in the West African sub-region after Nigeria, Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana. Given its geographical location and its political stability, Senegal is one of the most industrialized African countries with the presence of multinationals which are mainly of French origin and to a lesser extent American. The country’s labor force is divided as follows: 15.5% is devoted to agriculture, 21.7% to industries and 62.3% is devoted to services.

Senegal is the second country in the subregion in terms of job creation behind Nigeria, followed by Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana. The presence of the European and North American High Schools makes this country highly educated, the best candidate of the subregion in terms of job creation. Senegalese are very good at creativity and business management.

The Senegalese economy is mainly oriented towards Europe and India. Its main economic partners are France, India and Italy. However, for several years, China has been a growing partner, as witnessed by the China-Africa summits.
