In which countries do you operate?
Principalement au Burkina Faso, en Guinée, Côte d'Ivoire, Sénégal et à Madagascar. Nous pouvons intervenir plus largement en Afrique selon la faisabilité logistique et commerciale de votre projet.
Do you work exclusively?
We favor progressive and evolving frameworks defined according to the results and needs of each partner. Exclusivity terms are discussed on a case-by-case basis.

You retain full control over your strategy, pricing, and commercial terms. Our role is to be your on-the-ground liaison, not to make decisions for you.
What is the contractual framework?
We work under a commercial representation agreement with GISS Group, a registered Belgian company. The scope, objectives, and reporting procedures are contractually defined from the outset.
How long does it take to get started?
A few weeks are sufficient after validation of the scope and monitoring tools. As our structure is already in place in West Africa, there is no start-up delay related to local installation.
