Import to Comoros

As it was mentioned above, the main source of Comoros exports and the main economic sector is agriculture. However, Comoros is made up of islands and fishing could be a significant part of the country's economy, but the potential of this industry isn't fully explored and realized yet.

Other economic branches, such as tourism, are also slowly developing. Tourists come mainly from France, South Africa and the United Kingdom.

Comoros doesn't have sufficient natural resources and much soils suitable for agriculture, which results in the country's need to import most of the necessary food products. The major imported food product is rice and it is imported in bulk. Other imports, which are also of much higher value than exports, include petroleum, meat, iron, steel and cement.
