The Forécariah plant

Guinea’s first farm-machinery assembly unit

A 30-hectare site is reserved in Forécariah, in a region with strong rice and market-garden potential. The project proceeds in stages: the first module assembles tractors and walking tractors from ECARE kits.

  • Module 1: 2,600 m² assembly hall, about 400 units per year
  • Investment decision end-2028, based on measurable criteria
  • Commissioning targeted for 2030, with 100 kWp solar
  • Modules 2 and 3 if demand justifies

Forécariah plant — the industrial heartbeat

6,800 m² of modern facilities dedicated to CKD/SKD assembly. Our plant is the first industrial agricultural machinery assembly unit in the Republic of Guinea. It is built in modules: module 1 starts first, the next ones take the site to full capacity (phase 3).

Our territory

Guinea — land of agricultural future

Under the vision of President Mamadi Doumbouya, Guinea is leading a historic transformation of its agricultural sector. WARM GROUP is part of this national ambition by establishing the first agricultural machinery assembly plant in Forécariah — at the heart of a region with strong rice and market garden potential.
