Established in GDIZ since: June 2023 

 

Afrikan Ceramics Solutions (ACS), a leading manufacturer of modern Italian-style porcelain floor tiles, has rapidly established itself in the GDIZ zone of Benin since June 2023. Specializing in a wide range of high-quality products—such as ceramic tiles, glazed ceramic tiles, porcelain polished tiles, satin matt, and wooden porcelain planks—ACS has become a key player in the construction sector.

 

With the support of GDIZ, ACS successfully navigated regulatory approvals, sourced raw materials from local quarries, connected with essential service providers, and built a state-of-the-art factory. In addition, GDIZ facilitated the recruitment of a skilled workforce, allowing ACS to create over 500 direct and indirect jobs in Benin. Notably, ACS sources 90% of its raw materials locally, leveraging resources such as kaolin, granite, and clay, ensuring sustainable growth within the region.

 

With an annual production capacity of 3,000,000 m² and a distribution network spanning all ECOWAS countries, ACS exemplifies the vast potential for global investors in Benin. The successful collaboration between ACS and GDIZ highlights the ease of doing business in Africa, where strategic partnerships, local resources, and government support can lead to remarkable outcomes.

 

Benin’s growing industrial zones, coupled with its rich natural resources, make it a promising destination for international companies looking to expand into new markets and contribute to Africa's dynamic economic landscape.
