African countries offer important economic opportunities for Turkish exporters and investors who are willing to increase their revenues in a profitable way. However, the risks and business landscape of each country should be carefully identified. In this report, we presented the economic background of 20 African countries and their economic relations with Turkey. There have been significant investments in certain African countries for a long time, such as Egypt and Sudan.
