Discusses the state of direct marketing and what channels are available for companies to use direct marketing.
Last Published: 7/2/2019

Although the government permits direct marketing, the U.S. Embassy knows of no direct marketing company currently operating in Guinea.  This is most likely due to the lack of a reliable postal system or land line telephone network. Demonstration events or product fairs are generally best for high-technology or for products targeting a small market niche in Conakry. Small fairs can be staged in a hotel or public space available in Guinea’s larger cities or through agreement with a local partner or government office.

The U.S. Embassy has sponsored business development seminars to introduce Guinean businesses to working partnerships with U.S. companies. The Embassy also helps organize Guinean delegations for U.S. trade and product demonstration events and helps to facilitate connections between Guinean buyers and producers with appropriate U.S. counterparts.
