Akoupe is an important city in the Bondama Valley region of central Côte d'Ivoire, about 80 kilometers north of the capital, Yamoussoukro, and serves as a transportation node between the northern and southern regions. This agricultural-centered city, surrounded by cocoa, coffee and cassava, is an important part of Côte d'Ivoire's "breadbasket".
