Presse Ivory Coast is a digital news organization headquartered in Abidjan that publishes daily coverage of national affairs for readers in Ivory Coast and the diaspora. Its newsroom reports on politics and governance, justice and public administration, business and the economy, social issues and public services, as well as culture and sport. Alongside breaking updates, it produces field reports, investigative pieces and editorials, and increasingly packages stories as short videos and audio articles to broaden access. The outlet is published by SEPCI SARL; Abdoulaye Villard Sanogo serves as director of publication and editor‑in‑chief, with editorial coordination by Yeo Nadjata. The operation holds legal deposit No. 02/D dated 18 February 2021 and reports an average audience of about 150,000 views per day. Beyond straight news, Presse Ivory Coast runs sections for public notices and classifieds—petites annonces, institutional communications and obituaries—used by communities and businesses to reach readers. It also curates an “Enquêtes” stream for deeper investigations and an “Events” section for public conversations, extending reporting beyond daily briefs. Distribution is digital‑first on the web, with formats optimized for mobile readers. Its reporting has followed education, health, markets and elections at street level, aiming to connect national policy to everyday life. With a focus on reliable, rapid information and accessible formats, the organization positions itself as a general‑interest news service for Ivorians seeking timely, local and national updates.
