From the scenic Dakar coastline to the historic Gorée Island, and spanning the airport highway to remote rural settlements, thousands of solar-powered streetlights now illuminate the landscape of Sénégal. This specific sector is currently 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 network of 340 French companies operating within the nation. While major corporations such as Orange, TotalEnergies, Auchan, and Eiffage have established long-standing roots in West Africa, smaller and medium-sized enterprises are increasingly identifying significant expansion prospects in this regional market.
