SCE expands Africa footprint with new regional office in Côte d’Ivoire
Alongside the office opening, SCE announced a key leadership appointment, naming Nahoua Soro as Area Sales Manager for West Africa.
CÔTE D’IVOIRE – SCE Silo Construction & Engineering, a global player in designing, developing and building silo solutions has opened a new regional office in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, marking a further step in its expansion strategy across West Africa.
The move positions the company closer to fast-growing markets where demand for industrial and agricultural building solutions continues to rise, driven by population growth, urbanisation, and investments in food systems and infrastructure.
Announcing the development, the company stated that the new office in Abidjan serves as a commercial hub for Francophone West Africa, offering strong logistics links, access to regional markets, and proximity to key customers across Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal.
“We’re proud to announce the opening of our new regional office in Abidjan, strengthening our presence and long-term commitment to the region.”
SCE said the decision to establish a physical presence in the region is intended to improve customer engagement and technical responsiveness.
“Being locally present allows us to work more closely with our customers, provide faster support, and better align our building solutions with the region’s evolving needs,” the company noted.
According to the company, for sectors such as grains handling, storage, milling, and food processing, local technical support is increasingly critical as operators invest in modern facilities to reduce post-harvest losses, improve food safety, and meet stricter quality standards.
West Africa remains one of the world’s most dynamic agricultural regions, with cereals such as maize, rice, sorghum, and wheat playing a central role in food security.
According to FAO data, post-harvest losses for grains in parts of sub-Saharan Africa can reach 15–20%, largely due to inadequate storage and handling infrastructure. This has driven growing interest in engineered storage buildings, processing facilities, and integrated solutions that can operate reliably in tropical climates.
Alongside the office opening, SCE announced a key leadership appointment, naming Nahoua Soro as Area Sales Manager for West Africa.
With over 10 years of experience in the region and a strong technical and commercial background, Nahoua will deliver excellent insight and support to our customers in the region.
The appointment is expected to strengthen SCE’s market intelligence and project execution capabilities, particularly for customers planning new builds or expansions.
SCE encouraged stakeholders to engage directly with its West Africa team.
“Feel free to reach out to Nahoua with all your questions or to discuss your upcoming projects in the region.”
