OUR LOCAL TEAMS PLAN & EXECUTE

If DR Congo is a relatively unknown market for you, you need a clear market entry strategy. This may be different from the strategies you have used so far, as the market structure and the competition are different. SCA-Partner helps you to develop your market entry strategy on the go. We scan the market, launch your product, and grow your sales, constantly monitoring the responses and improving your approach.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS IN DR CONGO

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), strategically located in Central Africa, has a population of around 105 million as of 2023. The country is known for its vast natural resources, diverse cultural heritage, and significant potential for economic growth.

DR Congo’s economy, with a GDP per capita of about $600 USD in 2023, is characterized by its mining sector, which includes cobalt, copper, and diamonds. The country also has a developing agricultural sector, producing goods such as coffee, palm oil, and rubber. The services sector, particularly telecommunications and banking, are significant contributors to the economy.

Major cities include Kinshasa, the capital and a major commercial hub; Lubumbashi, an important mining center; Mbuji-Mayi, known for its diamond industry; Kisangani, a key river port; and Goma, a growing economic center in the east.
