Denver, USA – RE/MAX, a global real estate franchisor, has announced two new international expansion milestones.
The company has sold master franchise rights in Côte d’Ivoire, located in Western Africa, and has opened a franchised brokerage in Bahrain. These developments increase RE/MAX’s global presence, which currently spans over 110 countries and territories.
Shawna Gilbert, RE/MAX Senior Vice President of Global and Commercial, stated of the announcement that the company is “excited to welcome Côte d’Ivoire into our growing global network.” She noted that the entrepreneurs leading the region have a clear vision and will provide opportunities for real estate professionals there.
The new RE/MAX operations in Côte d’Ivoire will be led by Constant Tanflotien, Aboubacar Coulibaly, and Tibo Guigma-Premillieu. They aim to leverage the RE/MAX brand’s recognition, agent-focused model, and technology to build trust in the local real estate market. Tanflotien expressed enthusiasm about seeing agents succeed and using the global network to attract international investors to Côte d’Ivoire.
In Bahrain, the new franchised brokerage, named RE/MAX Premier, commenced operations on May 1. It is located in the Seef District of Manama, a key commercial and residential area. The office is positioned to serve a variety of clients, including local homeowners and international investors. RE/MAX Premier is owned by Dr. Khaled Mahmood Mohamed AlSharfaa and Mrs. Layla Ahmed Hasan AlAnsari, with Mr. Sarie Abukhalil appointed to manage the office. Abukhalil stated that joining RE/MAX is a strategic decision that enhances their credibility and reach in Bahrain’s growing market.
RE/MAX Premier has plans for growth, including recruiting agents who can combine local expertise with global resources and exploring cross-border collaborations. They also intend to launch specialized divisions for residential, commercial, and luxury real estate.
These expansion announcements follow RE/MAX’s sale of new master franchise rights in Cabo Verde, also in West Africa, which was announced in late 2024.
Gilbert added that the global network of professionals contributes to RE/MAX’s trusted brand and emphasized the company’s commitment to providing global affiliates with resources and support for their businesses.
