Fromager, Administrative region in central-western Ivory Coast.
Fromager was an administrative region located in central-western Ivory Coast covering approximately 6,900 square kilometers. It encompassed two departments, Gagnoa and Oumé, which served as the main territorial divisions of this area.
The region was established in March 2000 by combining territories from the Haut-Sassandra and Marahoué regions. It operated as a first-level administrative division until its dissolution in 2011, when it became part of the Gôh Region.
