位於西非，近幾年政局相對穩定，人均GDP也逐年增長，預計將會在2023年突破1,000美元。一直以來多哥都免於伊斯蘭武裝組織的侵擾，但在2022年5月，該國經歷了第一次恐怖攻擊。此次攻擊造成8名士兵喪生，也讓多哥政府提高警覺，料將與美國、法國和西非國家經濟共同體的國際夥伴加強合作，增加反恐能力。經濟方面，多哥正積極追求數位經濟轉型。除了力邀企業投資該國新創產業外，還向Google爭取讓非洲第一條海底電纜登陸在多哥首都洛梅。
看2022位於西非，和貝南一樣南北向細細長長，經濟發展集中於面向幾內亞灣的濱海區︒與其他非洲國家相比，缺乏高價值自然資源（如石油、天然氣、礦產），經濟以農業出口為主，消費品高度仰賴進口。過去二十年間政局不穩，連帶影響經濟發展，2015年有69%的家庭生活在貧困線以下。但近五年人均GDP有顯著成長，從570美元增長到900美元，判斷是政府積極投入公共建設投資、稅改、公營事業民營化等經濟改革，以及IMF和世界銀行協助改善政府財務的成果。

Just like Benin, Togo is a long, thin country from north to south. Its economic development is mainly driven by the seaside areas facing the Gulf of Guinea. Compared with other African countries, Togo lacks high-value natural resources. Its economy mainly relies on the export of agricultural goods and the country is highly dependent on imports of consumer goods. Over the past 20 years, its volatile political situation has been hindering its economic development. In 2015, 69% of Togolese families lived below the poverty line. Over the past 5 years, the GDP per capita has grown significantly, from US$570 to US$900. This is credited largely to the government's efforts to reform the economy such as investing in public infrastructure construction, tax reform, and privatization of public utilities, as well as IMF and the World Bank's assistance in improving government finance management.
