The purpose of this article is to study the role that market potential plays precisely in the attractiveness of territories. We will try to analyze and compare the localization of Chinese and French green fDI in Central Africa. The econometric study identifies the main factors on which the economic attractiveness of the territories is based. Our results indicate that the choice of mode and country of establishment will depend on the combination of the advantages of the firm and the host area. The impact that market potential has in particular is fundamental, particularly in Central Africa.
