Point of sale for Senegal businesses
Senegal's $28 billion economy is one of the fastest-growing in francophone West Africa, with Dakar emerging as a regional hub for services, technology, and commerce. The country's fishing industry is among Africa's most productive, while agriculture, tourism, and construction drive significant employment. Recent oil and gas discoveries offshore promise to reshape the economy by 2025 and beyond. Mobile money has grown rapidly, with Orange Money dominating the market. Senegal's BRT and new infrastructure projects signal a government focused on modernization, creating opportunities for businesses that can leverage data to grow alongside the national transformation.
