São Tomé and Príncipe: potential to explore

“The opportunities in the country comprise mainly for the better exploitation of natural resources, essentially through a strategic agricultural policy that encourages private investors, both domestic and foreign.

When it comes to tropical fruits, with strong demand in Europe, the country is naturally blessed in abundance and variety.
