About Burkina Faso
Burkina Faso is a landlocked country in West Africa with a population of 20 million people. About 70% of them live in rural settings (2020) and its economy is largely based on agriculture. Yet the % of urban population has been slowly but steadily growing over the past decades.
The main language spoken in this country is the French one, but attention: it’s estimated that there are more than 70 languages spoken in Burkina Faso, most of them indigenous ones. Half of the country (52%) speaks Mossi, mainly in the central region around the capital, Ouagadougou. The English language is not normally spoken.
This country is one of the most fertile countries on earth. On average, a Burkinese woman gives birth to 6 children.
Market research trends in Burkina Faso
The majority of the population works with subsistence agriculture or livestock raising. Regarding the agricultural sector, cotton, sesame, and sugarcane are the items the most exported. While rice, corn, and peanuts are grown for local consumption.
When it comes to livestock raising – which is one of the principal sources of revenue in Burkina Faso -, animals such as sheep, pigs, donkeys, chicken and camels play an important role for the population.
Representative market data
Understanding the struggles, limits and benefits of a country is crucial while conducting market research.
In some African countries, such as Burkina Faso, it can feel like the rules are constantly changing, forcing consumers to alter their shopping and consumption habits. As a result, it’s important for those involved to know how to conduct market research effectively.
This is crucial to find out how usage and purchase habits vary between countries and product types, so that you can make well-informed strategic decisions.
