Mayotte Island is part of the French overseas territories in the Indian Ocean, only 2h30 away from Nairobi. The island has been a crossroads for maritime trade between Europe and the Indian Ocean for centuries. Mayotte has experienced a dynamic economic growth over the past decade and presents relevant opportunities for private investments and export of goods & services from Kenya, even more in the framework of the EU – Kenya Economic partnership agreement. Indeed, because of its insularity, Mayotte relies on imports to sustain its economic growth and development. In 7 years, imports have doubled, reaching 1.1 billion euros in 2023.

This is a great opportunity to expand your network & business, identify new partners,and help us build stronger bridges between Kenya and France!
