Ivory Coast (Côte d'Ivoire) operates on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), which is Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+0). The country does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset remains constant throughout the year.
All of Ivory Coast follows the same timezone. Major cities including Abidjan, Bouaké, Daloa, and Yamoussoukro all observe GMT. Abidjan, the economic capital, is the largest city and serves as the main business hub of West Africa.
Ivory Coast is the world's largest producer of cocoa beans, supplying about 40% of the global cocoa used in chocolate. The country has two capitals: Yamoussoukro is the official political capital, while Abidjan serves as the economic capital and largest city.
