How we have helped our clients to grow in Africa?

Our client, a multinational headquartered in Amsterdam, who specializes in electronics, healthcare, and lighting was able to take the leap and launch its business in Nigeria through partnering with Africa HR Solutions. We assisted them to grow from 1 employee to 40 in under two years and achieved outstanding progress. Through our integrated partnership, our client has identified the need to develop its global products for off-grid communities. Around 600 hundred million people in Africa are currently living off-the-grid and our client is addressing this through its portfolio of products. They have now launched in two new African countries since then.

Africa HR Solutions works with many NGO’s in helping them to address the social or political issues. Their work is hugely important in alleviating diseases and humanitarian setbacks across the dark continent.  Their mission is to ‘doing good’ while setting aside profit. Africa HR Solutions is assisting them in this mammoth task and it’s something we are proud of.  We work with over 30 NGO’s and counting.

Whether you belong to the mining, oil & gas, banking & finance, construction, forestry, engineering, agriculture, IT & Telecom, NGO sectors, or consumer goods and products industry, we’ll provide you the best services tailor made for your company and objectives.
