Abidjan Business Pulse

Culture Formal, relationship-heavy, and the economic powerhouse of French-speaking West Africa.
Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
Pro Tip Best call window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. French is the primary business language; ensure you are fluent or have translation for technical talks. Personal relationships are vital. Hierarchy is respected, and a professional, polite tone is essential for success.

Osaka Business Pulse

Culture Slightly more pragmatic and direct than Tokyo. Known for a entrepreneurial spirit and "Kuidaore" (eat until you drop).
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM. Osakans are known for being slightly more informal and direct than people in Tokyo, but standard Japanese business etiquette (punctuality, politeness) still applies strictly. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
