Cambridge made their first entry into Côte d'Ivoire through Edilis SA. Edilis is a well-established indigenous publisher based in Abidjan. Since 1999, they have held a varied selection of Cambridge's ELT products. They distribute these through a network of bookshops within Côte d'Ivoire including their bookshop at rue de commerce in plateau Abidjan.

Established in 1992, Edilis employs eight full-time staff and has published a handful of titles for the Ivorian market. Their remarkable achievement is that of being the only local publisher who has embarked on publishing in Ivorian national languages. In this light, they continue to attract Cambridge's admiration in relation to the Cambridge Little Library; a project that Cambridge has published in a variety of African national languages from Southern, through East and West Africa.
