The meeting was moderated by Johanne Lamotte, Regional Head of Security at Bolloré Transport & Logistics, supported by local QHSE teams, and with the participation of a delegation from the FAB General Staff. Based on the sharing of experiences, it was also an opportunity to reflect together on areas for improvement in order to strengthen their collaboration.

We are very satisfied with this meeting, which represents a fine example of civil-military initiative and has allowed us to move forwards effectively on various subjects,” said Pierre Ngon, Managing Director of the Benin-Niger Cluster of Bolloré Transport & Logistics.
