Key Industrial Sectors
Sugar and molasses
Sugar cane is grown across the island and milled at factories such as Beau Plan, Medine and Savannah, producing raw and speciality sugar, molasses and bagasse-based electricity for export to the EU and regional markets; the sector also supplies ethanol and animal feed.
Textiles and apparel
Woven and knit garment factories in the export-processing zones around Port Louis, Plaine Lauzun and Flacq produce shirts, knitwear and denim for European and US brands, sourcing fabric mainly from Asia; textiles remain one of the island's largest manufacturing employers and export earners.
Financial and business services
Port Louis and the Ebene Cybercity host banks, insurers, fund administrators, global business companies and law firms serving Africa and India, supported by double-taxation treaties and a well-regulated financial-services commission; the sector is a leading source of value added and skilled employment.
Tourism and hospitality
Beach resorts and hotels along the north, west and east coasts draw visitors mainly from France, the UK, Germany and South Africa, and tourism underpins construction, retail and food supply; the sector is a top foreign-exchange earner and a driver of hotel and villa investment.
Seafood and light manufacturing
Tuna canning and seafood processing, along with jewellery, watches, medical devices and printing, form a small but high-value manufacturing base; the island positions itself as a hub for African and Indian Ocean trade and for offshore assembly and re-export.
