Near-shoring: Africa, the new preferred partner for French companies?

Near-shoring: Africa, the new preferred partner for French companies?

We were present at the Accor Arena last Thursday, 5th October, on the occasion of The BIG event organised by Bpifrance.

In partnership with France Invest, the brilliant Isabelle Bébéar led this round table, addressing the phenomenon of Near-shoring or when (French) companies repatriate part of their production to Africa. A high-quality analysis of this trend by Bpifrance's African partner funds and their entrepreneurs (of whom JEMS is obviously one).

Africa's strong potential is confirmed and offers a important business area with over 15% annual growth in the coming years, Morocco, Ivory Coast and Tunisia confirm their status as prime destinations and are already highly visible on the global radar!
