From the scenic Dakar coastline to the historic Gorée island, and stretching from the airport highway to remote rural settlements, thousands of solar-powered streetlights now illuminate the landscape of Sénégal. This specific sector is led by two French firms: Ragni, a family-owned business from the Alpes-Maritimes region, and Fonroche, an SME headquartered in Agen.
These organizations are part of a larger group of 340 French companies currently operating within the country. While industry giants like Orange, TotalEnergies, Auchan, and Eiffage have long-standing roots in West Africa and are well-recognized, smaller and medium-sized enterprises are increasingly identifying significant expansion prospects in this regional market.
