FAMY SN - CONSTRUCTION

Playing its Part

Jeannie was brought into the business during a change of FAMY SN’s governance, in response to reengagement of the diaspora on the African continent. Now, Jeannie and her team are on a mission to build the Senegal of tomorrow.

The business forecasts growth opportunities within the next few years in Sub-Saharan Africa. With the middleclass consumer market growing rapidly, FAMY SN foresees that infrastructure development will play a major role in this transformation.

“According to estimates by the African Development Bank, the continent’s infrastructure needs are between $130 and $170 billion per year,” explained Jeannie.

There are already plans for several, largescale projects within Senegal, such as the Train Express Regional (TER), an airport rail link connecting Senegal’s capital, Dakar, with the Blaise Diagne International Airport.

As well as this, there are opportunities for FAMY SN within the Saint Louis highway, the desalination plant, the Bus Rapid Transit and the Port of N’dayane.

Along with the growth which will come with the wider transformative plans in Senegal, FAMY SN has a vision to grow via strategic acquisition.

“The intention of these acquisitions will be to allow us to develop a more valuable offering for our clients, as well as developing transversal synergies,” said Jeannie.

Finishing up her conversation with Business Enquirier, Jeannie shared the ultimate goal: www.famy.fr

“Be the change you want to see in the world”.
