\n

Behind every successful company, there are women and men who take initiative, innovate, and create value.<\/h4>\n

In Burkina Faso, entrepreneurs make the daily bet of turning ideas into sustainable ventures, meeting concrete needs, and creating value at the heart of their environment. In agro-industry, healthcare, education, manufacturing, cosmetics, or specialized services, they are building companies that contribute to the vitality of the national economic fabric.<\/p>\n

This momentum takes shape in particular through the companies supported by N\u00e9r\u00e9 Capital. SIATOL, Rose \u00c9clat, Kokuma, and Bioprotect operate in agro-industry; Pharm’Xpert and Palobd\u00e9 Afrique in the healthcare sector; UMANIS in education; Agro-Emballage in manufacturing; and SPH (Savonnerie Parfumerie du Houet) in the cosmetics and hygiene sector.<\/p>\n

Different sectors, different stories, but a shared determination: growing companies that can sustainably create value. This is precisely where investment takes on its full meaning.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Beyond financing, a partnership for growth<\/h4>\n

Reaching a new milestone is not just about having capital.<\/p>\n

Growing also means strengthening your organization, structuring your teams, improving your governance, investing in your production capacity, developing new markets, and making the right strategic decisions at the right time.<\/p>\n

Through its Equity activity, N\u00e9r\u00e9 Capital provides companies with financing solutions tailored to their trajectories, in particular through equity stakes, participating loans, and other structuring instruments.<\/p>\n

But our role does not stop at financing. With every business leader, we build customized support, adapted to the specific challenges of their company and their development ambitions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2015-2026: the Equity portfolio in numbers<\/h4>\n

10 companies supported, including one memorable exit<\/strong><\/p>\n

SIATOL, Agroserv Industrie, UMANIS, Rose \u00c9clat, SPH, Kokuma, Palobd\u00e9 Afrique, Bioprotect, Pharm’Xpert, and Agro-Emballage.<\/p>\n

6 sectors covered<\/strong><\/p>\n

Agro-industry, healthcare, education, manufacturing, cosmetics, and specialized services.<\/p>\n

22 billion FCFA mobilized<\/strong><\/p>\n

To support development projects, strengthen company capacities, and sustain their growth trajectories.<\/p>\n

Thousands of jobs created<\/strong><\/p>\n

Direct and seasonal jobs that contribute to value creation and the dynamism of local economies. But also suppliers, distributors, and local partners mobilized around these companies.<\/p>\n

Being present where companies build their growth<\/h4>\n

No entrepreneurial journey is like any other. Some companies need to strengthen their working capital. Others need to industrialize their production, structure their governance, recruit new talent, improve their financial management, or conquer new markets.<\/p>\n

That is why N\u00e9r\u00e9 Capital favors tailored support. Alongside business leaders, our teams can work on topics as varied as governance, financial structuring, organization, performance monitoring, business development, or the mobilization of additional resources.<\/p>\n

This proximity allows us to better understand the realities of each company and to build, with its leaders, responses adapted to its growth challenges.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Equity, far more than a capital injection<\/h4>\n

Since 2015, we have supported ten Burkinab\u00e8 SMEs through our equity investment activity. Nine are still in the portfolio today, and a first memorable exit was completed in 2022. With more than 8 million USD (approximately 4.6 billion FCFA)\u00a0 invested directly, and more than 30 million USD (approximately 17.3 billion FCFA) mobilized from partners, we have helped generate a catalytic effect of more than 38 million USD, or nearly 22 billion FCFA.<\/p>\n

Through portraits of the companies in its Equity portfolio, N\u00e9r\u00e9 Capital invites you to discover, in the coming days, the women and men who make them grow: their stories, their trades, their ambitions, the challenges they have overcome, and the transformations underway as they reach new milestones in their development.<\/p>\n
