We support European companies building a presence in East Africa.
Our Service
You are starting or expanding a business in an African country. During the initial phase, we act as your local interface and manage communication with potential partners and customers. Throughout this process, we involve you and your team in a fully transparent manner and ensure close coordination at every step
Our History
ECOTEC was founded in 1992 by economist Hans Stoisser and architect Johannes Fiedler. The founding idea was to combine expertise in economics (Eco-) and technology (-tec) and to work at the intersection of business and development cooperation in African countries that were, at the time, still relatively distant for European firms (old references here).
In later years, ECOTEC was active in management consulting and executive education in Southern Africa, in cooperation with the Management Zentrum St. Gallen. As early as 2005, ECOTEC began supporting European companies in establishing and expanding their activities across African markets—a focus that continues to define our work today.
