Feasibility Study of a Mixed-Use Development Project
Description of project
The primary focus of this study is to assess the viability and cost-effectiveness of potential investments on a plot of land provided by the Government of Benin to the ISFD.
The project is of substantial importance, considering its potential impact on the economic and infrastructural development of the region. The allocated plot in Cotonou represents a strategic opportunity for investment, which could significantly contribute to the local economy and serve as a model for similar initiatives in other parts of the country or even the region.
The feasibility study is expected to encompass a broad spectrum of analyses, including market research, economic and financial projections, and regulatory considerations.
This project seeks to identify and leverage potential investments in a manner that aligns with the ISFD's mission of alleviating poverty and fostering economic development through strategic and well-considered investments.
The outcomes of this feasibility study will play a pivotal role in determining the future economic landscape of Cotonou and potentially set a precedent for similar developmental projects in the region.
