Pursuant to the initial impulse of Christelle Flory (J.V Partner), BAM co-founded the company Axellens that will operate in Guadeloupe as pilot territory.

Services: As an intermediary, Axellens supports companies, associations and project holders in the proper execution of their projects, with a complete offer integrating pre-financing solution, technical support for their implementation and the complete audit trail of operations that are subject to specific regulations.

Launch of A3S Program
BAM launched the program A3S (“Africa Sustainable Storage Solutions”), an impact investment initiative deriving from the combination of alarming market observations, a genuine will to fight against starvation in low-income countries, as well as the identification of highly profitable market opportunities.
As a matter of fact, throughout the world, food waste and spoilage has been a significant issue. This phenomenon is even more acute across Africa, a continent where the majority of people derive their livelihood from agriculture and yet, half of all the staple food in the continent is lost in the post-harvest stage or before they hit the market. Lack of food storage facilities leads to major Supply issues which, combined with slowing yield growth of major food crops, slowdown in research spending, land degradation, water scarcity issues and a changing climate, explain why prices remain high...
In this context, the philosophy of A3S program founders is therefore, to run a profitable business (making attractive returns from price fluctuations by storing and supplying fresh market products across African countries), while empowering local farmers with advice, financing, equipment and also off-taking their products at harvest. The companies piloting A3S program will start operating during Q1-2022 in 3 pilot countries (Cameroon, Senegal, and Morocco), supported by local industrial groups and international investors.
