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.

Lagos Business Pulse

  • Culture High-energy and entrepreneurial. "The hustle" is a way of life, and business is fast-moving.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "sweet spot" for calls is 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Be extremely patient with technical issues (power/internet) and have a backup plan like WhatsApp. Lagosians are very entrepreneurial; if you reach them, expect a fast-paced and pragmatic conversation.
