Africa Global Logistics (AGL) announces its participation in Africa Energy Week (AEW): Invest in African Energy 2024, which will be held from 4 to 8 November in Cape Town. As a Diamond Sponsor and exclusive logistics partner for AEW's event, this consecutive participation confirms AGL's commitment to contributing to the growth of the African energy sector.
AEW, recognised as the go-to platform for energy players in Africa, provides AGL with the opportunity to highlight its multimodal offering and recent investments to support the growth of the continent's energy infrastructure. Active in 47 African countries, AGL operates in key sectors such as energy, mining and power generation, offering innovative and tailor-made solutions to meet the priority needs of its customers.
As a Diamond Sponsor of AEW 2024, AGL reaffirms its critical role in the development of modern logistics infrastructure across Africa, with a clear vision: to strengthen regional connectivity and support the growth of Africa's energy sector. Recent projects include the modernisation of the Walvis Bay multipurpose terminal in Namibia and the fabrication of subsea structures for the "Baleine" energy field in Côte d'Ivoire.
As Africa increasingly positions itself as a key player in global energy production, AGL's logistics expertise is a strategic asset for the development of this industry's exploration, production and distribution capabilities. For example, major energy projects in Mauritania, Senegal, Mozambique and Namibia are a testament to AGL's key role in the continent's energy transformations.
"Our participation as an energy logistics partner of AEW 2024 illustrates our commitment to providing tailored logistics solutions, supporting strategic energy initiatives in Africa," said Thomas Bonnetain, Director of Oil & Gas at AGL.
Through the modernisation of port infrastructure and the continuous improvement of the continent's logistics efficiency, AGL contributes not only to the success of African energy projects, but also to their sustainable development. This commitment to improving market access, supporting economic growth and unlocking Africa's energy potential is at the heart of AGL's mission.
"Africa's energy sector relies on the strategic expansion of its logistics and transport infrastructure. Modern and efficient transportation of resources from extraction to distribution is key to unlocking Africa's energy potential and catalysing continent-wide economic growth," said NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.
As a key player in the African logistics sector, AGL remains committed to supporting the continent's energy transformation, while placing innovation, local skills development and sustainability at the heart of its action.
