Small Business Awards 2023 | 7 Logistics Warehouse and Supply Chain Awards 2025 | 7 in other parts of the continent, like South Africa, Kenya, or Nigeria. Challenges do arise given that Burkina Faso is a landlocked country, making transport by sea more difficult than from many African nations. The longer transit times risked as a result require more thorough strategic planning to avoid, and the team here work constantly to improve their processes and transit times when it comes to logistics and transport management, ensuring that as many deliveries as possible arrive on time. One example of this comes from the agency the company has in Bobo Dioulasso, this at the dry port located at the Burkinabe Shippers’ Council building. This dry port is a transport hub for sea cargo, allowing SCM Logistics to receive and process international cargo before transporting it within Burkina Faso and other nearby countries by air or land. Alongside this agency, the company has its main office registered Ouagadougou, at the Cité AN III, on the Rue du Capitaine Gnandé OUEDRAOGO. This location is central, making it highly strategic. So as to boost its successful delivery rate further, SCM Logistics made the decision to digitise its operations back in 2023, a goal it has been working towards ever since. The team have primarily achieved this by establishing an inhouse dashboard to provide real-time tracking updates to its clients on its operations around the world. As well as this, there is an emphasis within the company on developing and investing in its staff, recognising that – despite technological advancements – people remain at the very heart of logistics. Reinforcing this every day through its operation, this transit specialist in Burkina Faso is a fitting recipient of both this award and a place in our Logistics Warehouse and Supply Chain Awards 2025. On this back of this recognition, we urge our readers to follow the link below to SCM Logistics SARL’s website and learn more about its operation.
