Kinshasa Business Pulse
- Culture Developing and informal but with a growing corporate sector. Relationships are key.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM for the best response. French is the primary business language; ensure you have a translator or are fluent for technical discussions. Personal relationships and face-to-face (or video) interactions are highly valued over cold emails.
Monterrey Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial, ambitious, and the business powerhouse of northern Mexico.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. Business culture in Monterrey is more fast-paced and similar to the US than in Mexico City. However, personal trust and formal greetings are still vital. Avoid calling during the 1:30-3:30 PM lunch window strictly.
