Sakouna: a border town in Benin's Atlantic department
Sakété is a border town in the southern part of Benin's Atlantique department, on the country's border with Togo, about 60 kilometers from the economic center of Cotonou. As an important hub connecting Benin and Togo, Sakouna is known for its vibrant cross-border trade, and the local market is one of the economic centers of the surrounding region, bringing together agricultural products, handicrafts and daily necessities from both countries. The city's mainstay is agriculture, with crops such as cotton, palm oil and cassava, as well as traditional crafts such as weaving and pottery. Sakuna also retains a rich Yoruba cultural tradition, with regular traditional festivals and events that attract culture enthusiasts to visit. Despite its small size, its unique geographical location and multiculturalism make it an attractive border town in southern Benin.
