Madagascar. Your Gateway to a Unique Investment Opportunity

Madagascar, the world's fourth-largest island, is a gem nestled in the Indian Ocean,  approximately 400 km east of Africa's coast. Spanning about 587,000 km², it is home to around 28 million people. The capital, Antananarivo, bustles with life, echoing the island's rich blend of Malagasy and French influences, evident in its official languages and currency, the Ariary.

Climate: Madagascar's climate is a tropical yet varied tapestry. The rainy season stretches from November to March, while April to October marks the dry period. The east coast is humid and tropical, whereas the west is drier and warmer. With coastal temperatures averaging 24-28°C year-round, Madagascar beckons as a perfect haven for relaxation and long --term living.

Nature: Madagascar's biodiversity is unparalleled. About 80-90% of its species, including the iconic lemurs, baobabs, chameleons, and diverse birds, are endemic, found nowhere else on Earth. The island is dotted with numerous national parks like Andasibe-Mantadia and Isalo, offering spectacular sights and tourist attractions.

Culture: A captivating fusion of African, Asian, and European influences shapes Malagasy culture. With over 20 ethnic groups, each with its own traditions and history, the island resonates with rich musical, dance, and artistic traditions. Its culinary delights, rooted in rice, vegetables, local beef, seafood, and exquisite spices, are a feast for the senses. Festivals like Alahamady Be and Donia celebrate this cultural melange with music, dance, and joy.

Political System: Madagascar is a republic where the head of state is the president, and the legislative power lies in the hands of a bicameral parliament. Political stability is essential for the development of investments, and the government of Madagascar is making efforts to improve investment conditions and cooperate with international partners.
