Who we are
Architect of an african industry
ARISE IIP designs, finances, builds and operates integrated and tailor-made industrial zones with high added value.
ARISE Integrated Industrial Platforms (Arise IIP), since October 2024, counts three shareholders: Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), Equitane and Fund for Export Development in Africa (FEDA) – a subsidiary of Afreximbank.
Arise IIP identifies industrial gaps in African countries that unlock value and create new industries. Our aim is to industrialize key sectors by creating local transformation, maximizing production, efficiency and cost, which in turn generates local value addition.
Our trusted partnerships with governments and investors enable us to execute large-scale projects that transform local value chains and industrialize countries in an environmentally sustainable way. ARISE IIP operates in 11 countries, leveraging tailored special economic zones such as those in Gabon, Benin and Togo to drive exports, foster local processing of raw materials, and facilitate trade.
How we are making a difference
CREATING STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS
A trusted partner of governments and communities.
We are committed to partner with African governments on their development agenda, focusing on job creation, education and health. To stimulate the emergence of industrial ecosystems, we create logistical hubs in tune with local public policies and aligned with the partner country’s development strategy.
