After five years of procedures, the Company A&M Développement Guinea SA has just obtained its approval in the Republic of Guinea. Questioned this Saturday March 16, 2024 by one of our journalists, Mohamed Saïd Touré, representative in Guinea of the said Company confirmed the information.
According to him: “It is a company which has just obtained its approval in the Republic of Guinea. A&M Developments is a project development and construction company capable of managing complex construction projects thanks to its flexibility and combined knowledge arising from the distinctive specialization of its employees and managers. This company is based in the United States of America and is present in 16 countries around the world. This is a new opportunity for Guinea. For its installation in Guinea, it began the process in 2019. It is a global strategic company which has a policy called Infrastructures against Mines. That is to say, it finances mega state projects and in return mining concessions (Bauxite, Gold, Diamond, etc.). Guinea is a very rich country and we have a lot of things to develop. This is why this company has implemented real policies to help Guinea. It plans to make enormous investments which vary between 20 and 100 billion US dollars. Everything will depend on the projects that the State will submit. What remains clear is that it is a very experienced and credible company. In 2020, it signed a US$20 billion deal in Congo. With this in mind, many projects are cited. This involves the construction of a railway and the development of agriculture. These are the kinds of projects that we also want for Guinea,” he explained.
Big ambitions for the Republic of Guinea
According to Mr. Mohamed Said Touré: “In our portfolio, we have if all goes well, the Construction of the Maferinyah international airport; we also want to finance the construction of the Conakry-Bamako-Burkina Faso railway but also to Sierra Leone; the construction of 100 schools across the country. Also, the construction of an investment and development bank. A way for us to help entrepreneurs obtain bank loans to protect themselves from the ordeal they experience with local banks. This bank will finance mining projects, agro-business projects and any other project that can facilitate the employability of young people since the government wants young people to be autonomous. We are currently taking steps to obtain these different projects. Currently, we are in the installation phase. After this stage, in collaboration with the Guinean government, we will begin the financing phase of these projects. We were also told about projects relating to the construction of 20 to 50 thousand housing units, projects that we will be able to finance. We aim to build a bauxite and gold refinery plant but also a port. We are able to finance the construction of a toll road on the North Conakry-Dubréka, Conakry-Coyah-Forécariah-Kindia, Dubréka-Fria-Boké and Dubréka-Boffa corniche. We also intend to finance the construction of a rice production factory but also hydroelectric dams and the Koloma directional center project. In our portfolio, we also have the project to build a port for evacuating mining products,” he added.
Thousands of direct and indirect jobs in perspective
Regarding jobs, there will be 3,000 direct and 10,000 indirect. “We thank the Guinean authorities who agreed to give approval to A&M Développement Guinea SA which is willing to support the government to get Guinea out of the rut. Today, when you take the construction of the railway, it is a project that will involve thousands of people (between 3,000 and 10,000) – the construction of the Maferinya international airport will generate between 2,000 and 10,000 10,000 jobs, the construction of 100 schools will help entrepreneurs a lot. The government’s policy is to support entrepreneurs in different regions. Our company is committed to financing these government flagship projects.

In short, it is a company that can help the country’s economic takeoff,” said Mr. Touré.
