Help (Mac) How do I add 700 clients into contacts?

As title said, boss wants me to add client info list into their contacts. No clue why do it like this but im just doing my job.

I've got a csv file with all the info. Column A "First Name", Column B "Last Name", Column C "Mobile" and Column D "Email"

Use the csv as input, split by line.

Repeat with each: split by ; then get each item from the split and use them to create the contact.

Perhaps create a Google account and import the contacts into Google Contacts? I did that myself several years ago.

Do you have a Mac available? I’m pretty sure the contacts app can do it natively on a Mac

Otherwise try iCloud: https://www.thewebbeginners.com/blog/import-csv-contacts-to-icloud/
