Export from Mayotte

Mayotte is an insular department and region of France officially named Département de Mayotte. It consists of a main island, Grande-Terre (or Maore), a smaller island, Petite-Terre and several islets around these two. The archipelago is located in the northern Mozambique Channel in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Southeast Africa, between northwestern Madagascar and northeastern Mozambique.

The economic activity of Mayotte is based primarily on fishing and livestock raising. The country exports big quantities of fresh fish, frozen fish, lobsters, caviar, squid as well as coral calcium for international drugstores.

The economy of the country is dominated by an productive agricultural sector operating largely outside the country, motivating local manufacturers and sellers. Agricultural products, exported abroad, include sweet potatoes, vegetables, corn, coffee and tea, sugarcane, tobacco and tobacco substitutes, cotton, tea, peanuts, rice, water, pigs, cattle, poultry.
