Seychelles Imported Products

Since Seychelles is an island country in terms of imported products, it meets many of its basic needs from abroad. Seychelles' most imported products include foodstuffs, construction materials, automotive products, electronic goods, furniture and textile products. In food imports, Seychelles generally imports basic food products from other countries. Many fresh and processed foods, especially meat, fish, fruits, vegetables and dairy products, are imported. Construction materials have become an important import item with the development of the construction sector in Seychelles. Building materials include products such as cement, iron, wood, glass and ceramics. Automotive products are also among the products commonly imported in Seychelles. Most of the products such as vehicles, automobile spare parts, tires and fuel are brought from abroad. Electronic goods, furniture and textile products are also some of Seychelles' most imported products. These products generally fall into the category of consumer goods, and their imports have increased with the change in consumption habits in the country. Since Seychelles is a country where the tourism sector is an important source of income, the import of tourism-related products is also intense. In this context, most of the products such as tourist souvenirs, beach goods and cosmetics are imported.
