Hiring in Ivory Coast

Gaining its name from the tusks and horns of elephants and rhinos that were traded with passing merchants and explorers, the Ivory Coast is also famous for its football players, coffee and cocoa production.

Ivory Coast was until the 1999 coup d’état seen as a stable, developing nation, with close ties to its West African neighbours as well as France, to which it was once a colony. Such is the extent of France’s influence that Ivory Coast’s official name is still Cote D’Ivoire, which carries the same meaning. France remains a key trading partner, with cocoa beans, nuts, gold and petroleum making up its main exports.

Despite extensive cash crops, natural resources and being the fourth-largest exporter of goods in sub-Saharan Africa, Ivorians face challenging working conditions, with very few employment laws and instances of indentured working. Expertise is needed to make foreign investments both ethically and successfully, but Ivory Coast boasts much potential, with a high number of both French and English speakers and highly competitive wages.
