Haitians are open to working with foreign investors and are particularly well disposed towards U.S. businessmen. Most businessmen and women speak English fluently. Appointments with Haitian businessmen should be made in advance. Invitations to restaurants are appreciated and business is usually discussed in restaurants as much as in offices.
• Government and commercial offices typically open between 8:00am-9:00am, and close between 3:30pm-5:00pm. Many retail businesses remain open during the early evening, providing services until 7:00pm.
