Cape Town Business Pulse
- Culture Slightly more relaxed than Jo'burg but professional. Creative and tech-focused.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM. Capetonians value their quality of life, so business often has a slightly more relaxed pace than in Johannesburg. Relationship building is important. Be mindful of potential "Load Shedding" (power outages) affecting connectivity.
Marseille Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic, relationship-heavy, and influenced by its status as a major Mediterranean port.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Business culture in Marseille is relational; spend time on introductions and building trust. Directness is appreciated, but it should be polite. Avoid the 12:30-2 PM lunch break strictly. Personal presence is highly valued.
