Without a doubt, Dakar is an important financial, trading and transport center of West Africa, which significance is hard to overestimate. The city was founded in 1857 as a French marine port. Starting from 1904 and up to 1960 the city was the main administrative center of West Africa that belonged to France at that time.
The foundation of the city in this area is not random as this is a strategically advantageous point on a halfway between South Africa and Europe, South America and Europe. The first industry that started developing in Dakar was ship building. It helped to activate the growth of other industries. Among them are food industry (bakery, brewery, peanut oil and sugar processing), soap boiling, textile and automobile factories. Dakar is the largest railway and automobile crossing of Senegal. There is also an international airport in the city.
