It is endemic throughout the country, with a seasonal upsurge from June through October. This seasonal peak is variable across the three major geographic zones linked with the duration of the rainy season: up to three months in the north, six months in the center, and nine months in the south of the country. Dengue is a year-round risk and peak transmission occurs August to December. Cholera case occurs in Burkina Faso with a case detected in August 2021 (the patient was a truck driver of Malian nationality who entered from Niger where a cholera epidemic is currently raging). Although no cases of the Ebola virus disease occurred in Burkina Faso during the West African epidemic of 2014, the Ministry of Health is reinforcing the capacity of its monitoring system to respond in case of a new epidemic. |

Seasonal Effects on Transport |
||
|---|---|---|
|
Transport Type |
Time Frame |
Comments / Details |
|
Primary Road Transport |
January to January |
The primary road infrastructure is in relatively good condition. |
|
Secondary Road Transport |
June to September |
County roads and rural tracks are not accessible during the rainy season. |
|
Air Transport |
June to September |
Local airfields are not accessible during the rainy season. |
|
Waterway Transport |
Not applicable, the rivers are rarely used for transportation. |
|
In Burkina Faso, the climate is tropical, with a rainy season in the summer months due to the African monsoon (June to September), and a dry season in winter. In the north, the rainy season is shorter and less intense, so the climate is semi-arid, while in the south the rains last longer. The temperatures in Burkina Faso are high throughout the year. During winter season, the air is dry due to the northeast winds with temperatures around 30/32 °C in the north and 32/33 °C in the south. The prevailing wind, called Harmattan, blows from the north-east and can lift dust, making the sky whitish, but it can also cause real sandstorms. Storms can also occur in spring because of the clash with moist air masses.
|
Seasonal Effects on Storage and Handling |
||
|---|---|---|
|
Activity Type |
Time Frame |
Comments / Details |
|
Storage |
June to September |
Hight temperature during summertime which require storage well ventilated and a roof in a good condition to avoid leakage during the rainy season. |
|
Handling |
June to September |
Offloading of trucks outside the warehouse if there is no possibility to park the trucks inside, cargo can be damaged by the rain during the handling operations. |
|
Others |
To remind transporters to protect and cover the shipment with tarpaulins well to avoid damage by the rain. |
|
During the rainy season, offloading of trucks is taking more
time due to the weather conditions and there is a higher risk of
offloading damaged cargo if not well protected and covered at the
departure point. Additional activities of repacking can occur to
replace damaged items during offloading.
Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response
Government
Placed under the technical and administrative supervision of the Ministry in charge of Social Action and National Solidarity and under the financial supervision of the Ministry in charge of the Economy and Finance, the Conseil National de Secours d’Urgence et de Réhabilitation (CONASUR) is responsible for working to prevent disasters, manage emergency relief and rehabilitation and ensures coordination and guidance in the field of prevention disaster, emergency relief management and rehabilitation. The CONASUR is the national platform for the prevention and management of disasters and humanitarian crises with the aim to work in closed collaboration with all humanitarian actors, on issues related to the convergence of actions for poverty reduction, adaptation to climate change and disaster risk reduction, to strengthening the resilience of populations made vulnerable by socio-political-economic systems and climate change including climate variability and extreme events.
Additional governmental agencies are interacting within the humanitarian action in country such as:
- The Société nationale de gestion des stocks de sécurité alimentaire (SONAGESS) is in charge of managing the national food stock security.
- SP-PAM in charge of the administration, management, monitoring-evaluation and control of food aid from the World Food Programme (WFP).
For more information on government contact details, please see the
following link: 4.1
Government Contact List.
Humanitarian Community
As of April 2021, 67 organizations were operating
in the country implementing 157 (shelter, wash,
protection, nutrition, health, food security, refugees).
As per an OCHA report issued on 26/07/21, the number of internally
displaced persons in Burkina Faso has risen to 1,312,071. This
increase in numbers is due to the increase in security incidents.
This unpredictable and unprecedented increase in incidents
targeting the civilian population has been observed since the
beginning of the second quarter of 2021 (…) The Central North,
Sahel and Eastern regions continue to be the most affected. People
are moving to communities in dire humanitarian need, but
humanitarian response capacity remains limited. According to
analyses by the Rapid Response Coordination Group (GCORR), only 20%
of displacement alerts are fully responded to. The humanitarian
community remains committed to supporting the Government in
responding to humanitarian challenges.
For more information on humanitarian agency contact details, please see the following link: 4.2 Humanitarian Agencies Contact List.

2 Burkina Faso Logistics Infrastructure
The following sections contains information on the logistics infrastructure of Burkina Faso.
2.1 Burkina Faso Port Assessment
Burkina Faso is a landlocked country relying upon the seaport services of neighbouring countries. However, the country has a dry port located in Bobo Dioulasso carried by the CCI (Chambre de Commerce et de l’Industrie - more information here). The dry-port welcomes operators economic, public administration and the customs administration to facilitate import and export activities. According to the CBC (Conseil Burkinabé des Chargeurs) the country is importing 98% of its merchandise by sea with transhipment by road through the main below four corridors:
Lomé (Togo), Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire), Cotonou (Benin), Téma &
(Ghana)
The CBC is a professional public establishment with the main missions to coordinate the interventions of partners in the transport chain in transit countries to reduce delivery times and costs and to manage the freight coming from all the corridors (import & export). The CBC of Burkina Faso is a member of the UCCA (Union des Conseils des Chargeurs Africains) and participates to the regional discussion and meeting to improve the freight management within the region.
The CBC is represented in each port and each border entry of the country to support the freight operations and to monitor the truck traffic through their online system called Système de gestion du transport terrestre et aérien des marchandises (Sygestran). In case of strike, losing containers or issues with transporters for example, the CBC with their local representatives is intervening to find solutions.

2.2 Burkina Faso Aviation
ANAC is the national regulatory authority in charge of the regulations, supervision and control of civil aviation activities in accordance with the principles of the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization). Since 1959, Burkina Faso is a member of the ASECNA (Agence pour la Sécurité de la Navigation Aérienne en Afrique et à Madagascar) composed of seventeen (17) African states members. ASECNA’s main mission is to provide air navigation services, aeronautical information services and aeronautical meteorology services.
Burkina Faso has a total of forty-seven (47) airfields however only few of them are operational like Fada N’Gouma and used by private airline companies (transportation of passengers working in the mine sector for example). Direction Aérodromes Navigation Aérienne Sureté (DANAS) is the department in charge to do airfield assessment (last one was conducted in 2016) however due to the current insecurity situation in country, this activity is still on hold.
List of airfields in Burkina Faso are available here.
Only Ouagadougou and Bobo Dioulasso are classified as international airports and represent the main point of entry and exit of the country. However, Ouagadougou airport represents 89% of the airline traffic. Then, since 2017, the government has launched the construction of a new airport Ouagadougou -Donsin located 35 km from the capital to meet the continuous increase of the traffic with an opening scheduled in 2024.

2.3 Burkina Faso Road Network
For the government, it is essential to open the country by launching road projects to boost the local economy, to expand the regional trade and to reduce transport delays for goods imported and exported through the different main corridors (Togo, Benin & Côte d’Ivoire). In addition, the population will benefit from improved road safety and better access to the regional market. However, the government is facing some delays to achieve projects due to the recent Covid 19 pandemic, security issues in some area or complex coordination among numerous institutions and stakeholders. The past 2016-2020 Plan National de Développement Économique et Social (PNDES) included under the strategic response #3 to “develop quality infrastructure and resilient, to promote structural transformation of economy”. For the next five years, the government is now working on a new plan called 2021-2025 RND up to 19030,70 Billion FCFA and has forecasted 105 billion of FCFA to improve the national road network through different projects:
- upgrade of the National Road NR#23 Ouahigouya - Djibo and the National Road NR# 10 Tougan - Ouahigouya with asphalt
- construction and asphalting of the Regional Road RR#11 Kolinka-Fara-Poura
- rehabilitation of the corridor Lomé-Cinkansé-Ouagadougou
- construction of the Highway Yamoussoukro-Ouagadougou.

Road Security
According to the Ministère des Transports, de la Mobilité
Urbaine et de la Sécurité Routière (MTMUSR), the country has recorded
20,871 road crashes with 1060 deaths and 13,763 injured persons in
2020. Main reasons of road accidents are due to over speeding,
distracting driving (talking on the cellphone), drunk driving plus
violation of the traffic rules (not wearing seat belt, helmet,
unsafe line changes….). In addition, poor road conditions and
weather conditions (rainy season from June to September) are two
factors increasing the cause of road traffic injuries. The
promotion of road safety and improvement of the road network
conditions are under the Office National de Sécurité Routière
(ONASER) who conduct many campaigns
to increase awareness within the population about road safety.
ONASER also works in close collaboration with the (Centre de
Contrôle des Véhicules Automobiles(CCVA) to control and clean up the country’s
fleet through eight stations for vehicle inspection. Then, the
ONASER is increasing the control of speed limit across the country
with six mobile teams equipped with modern technology radar
devices. In Burkina, the speed is limited up to 50 km/h in urban
area with the possibility for the local authority to reduce it then
limited up to 90 km/h in countryside for any type of vehicle
(except heavy vehicle limited up to 80 km/h)
In addition, the Direction Général des Transports Terrestres et
Maritime (DGTTM) is implementing since 2019
the Licence
d’Exploitation de Transport Routier, a mandatory certificate
for all the transporter to operate in country. The transporter must
submit a set of documents to obtain this certificate then a blue
number plate will be assigned for each registered truck. A blue
plate is stating that the truck is dedicated for transportation of
goods and meet all the mandatory requirements to circulate in
country. Target is 2024-2025 to achieve this process with campaign
of awareness from the DGTTM regional offices to mobilize the
transporters to apply for the licence.
However, the main issue is armed roadside banditry across the country then the number of attacks/kidnappings has been increasing since 2015. There is a risk of armed groups stopping vehicles (including public buses) on major roads to rob them and it is recommended to avoid travelling between towns by road at night, remote and border regions are also particularly vulnerable.
Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits
The ONASER is in charge of controlling the axe load through their stations checkpoints located across the country and on each land border crossing with a target of 200 000 controls per year. Since June 1, 2009 heavy goods vehicles transporting goods are controlled to check if they are not overloaded, in accordance with the regulation No. 14/2005 / CM / UEMOA, relating to the harmonization of standards and procedures for checking the size, weight and axle load of vehicles heavy goods transport in WAEMU member states. For non-respect of the regulation, a fine of 60,000 CFA per extra ton is applied for national transportation and a fine of 200 000 CFA per extra ton is applied for international transportation.
Then, to reinforce their capacities, the ONASER signed last May 2021 a partnership with a private company Afrique Pesage S.A to manage the weighing stations of Dakola, Tanghin-Dassouri, Bobo-Dioulasso, Banfora and Niangoloko as part of a three-year pilot project (more information here)

2.4 Burkina Faso Railway Assessment
SITARAIL (subsidiary of Bolloré Group) is the railway company
who operates the railway lines between Côte d'Ivoire to Burkina
Faso. The line construction began in Abidjan in 1904 then achieved
in Ouagadougou in 1954.
Bolloré Group declared 200,000 passengers and 900,000 MT of freight
are transported each year however the recent Covid 19 pandemic has
impacted the passenger traffic. The network is 1,260 km long,
connects Abidjan to Ouagadougou with 59 stations. In Burkina, the
network represents a total of 622 km:
- 517 km currently operated between Côte d'Ivoire (Niangoloko) to Ouagadougou.
- 105 km not operated between Ouagadougou to Kaya.
From Côte d’Ivoire, the transported products are hydrocarbons,
containers, fertilizers and cement then cotton and local products
constitute the main exportations to Abidjan. Since 2019, Bolloré
Group has launched a vast investment program for the modernization
of its maintenance workshops with the target to improve the quality
of rail traffic. In addition, the company invested more than two
billion FCFA in the acquisition of modern equipment for its
locomotive and wagon maintenance between 2019-2020.
Since March 2020, the passengers traffic remains interrupted between Burkina Faso and Côte d’Ivoire due to the Covid 19 pandemic. However, the Government announced last November 17th, 2021 the re-opening of the land and rail borders on December 1st, 2021.

2.6 Burkina Faso Storage Assessment
Overview
Burkina Faso offers a variety of storage solutions from the private to the public sector to meet the humanitarian needs across the country. In general, storages are concrete buildings and meet the minimum storage conditions. Renting or loaning land to install a mobile storage unit is also a practical option. In the private sector, storage solutions come from merchants in import/export, cement companies, wholesalers or logistics companies. In the public sector, Ministry of Agriculture, SONAGESS (Société Nationale de Gestion du Stock de Sécurité Alimentaire ) or the CAMEG (Centrale d'Achat des Médicaments Essentiels Génériques et des Consommables Médicaux) have a network of storage across the country. Therefore, it is recommended to explore both sectors when sourcing a storage solution. In addition, national humanitarian organizations are highly active in country with strong local connections and they often have some storage in remote areas. Therefore, they can provide temporary storage solutions to any organization during short term operations like distributions. Key to find and identify a storage is to contact all the economic actors within the new area of operation regardless of private or public sector.
For more information on storage company contact details, please see the following link: 4.6 Storage and Milling Companies Contact List.

Storage Used by Humanitarian Organizations
Humanitarian organizations run their own warehouses to store the commodities by renting through the private sector. In some areas, renting or loaning land to erect a mobile storage unit is also an alternative solution. In addition, some logistics companies offer a full warehousing service including labors, storage facilities and stock reports.

Public Sector Storage
The public sector can offer a storage solution to humanitarian
organizations if space is available at the time of request. The
main identified sources are the SONAGESS ,
the Ministry of Agriculture
and the CCI who have a large storage
capacity across the country. It is recommended to visit their local
representative to verify the space availability then to make an
official request at regional/national level. Their facilities meet
the standard minimum requirement of storage with buildings in good
condition (concrete, large doors, well ventilated and easy access
for trucks).
For medical, the CAMEG meets the
good storage practices for pharmaceuticals and offers a full
solution from procurement to distribution with their own fleet.

2.7 Burkina Faso Milling Assessment
Les Grands Moulin du Faso (GMF) and La Minoterie de l’Orient (MINOR) which belong to the Group Hajjar own the main millings in country. Then, during the last decade, the national milling market has grown up with the arriving of new actors like Les Moulins du Sahel Burkina Faso (MDS BF SA) or Agroserv Industrie. They invested in modern plants with larges units of production including storage capacities and internal laboratories of analysis. All those units of production are contributing to meet the population needs and to reduce the flour imports from Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana or Togo.

3 Burkina Faso Services and Supply

3.1 Burkina Faso Fuel
Fuel Overview
The SONABHY (Société Nationale Burkinabè
d’Hydrocarbures ) under the authority of the Ministry of Trade,
holds a monopoly on the import and storage of hydrocarbons in the
country. Supplies of petroleum products are mainly contracted
through calls for tenders and long-term contracts (suppliers with
port storage capacities and direct purchases).
The transit storage of products purchased on the international
market is carried out at the Storage Company (STSL) in Lomé (Togo),
at the ORYX depot in Cotonou (Benin), at the National Company for
the Marketing of Petroleum Products (SONACOP) in Téma and
Bolgatanga (Ghana) and GESTOCI in Côte d'Ivoire.
Hydrocarbon products purchased are generated from coastal depots to
inland depots in Burkina Faso by rail (SITARAIL) and road (private
transporters). SONABHY has three main storage depots located in
Bobo Dioulasso, Bingo and Péni with currently construction projects
ongoing in Bingo to increase the storage capacity.
Hydrocarbon products are then distributed to end consumers through
key account players or customers (members of the Groupement
Professionnel Pétrolier) who obtain their supplies directly from
SONABHY. These large account customers (around 85 as date of
September 2021) consist of marketers, subsidiaries of
multinationals (Vivo Energy, Total Energies, Orix Energy, Ola
Energy) and independent national companies distributing petroleum
products (Otam, Petrofa).
Brochure on SONABHY (French version) here.
Last October 2018, the SONABHY had obtained its ISO 9001/2015 certification.
For more information on government and fuel provider contact details, please see the following links: 4.1 Government Contact List and 4.7 Fuel Providers Contact List.
Information may also be found at: http://www.mytravelcost.com/petrol-prices/ which is updated monthly.
Fuel Pricing
The prices of hydrocarbons and butane gas, together with the
duties and taxes levied on hydrocarbon imports, are fixed monthly
by the CIDPH (Comité Interministériel de Détermination des Prix des
Hydrocarbure) which includes 13 indicators to structure the
price.
The isolation of the country and taxes partly explain the
relatively high level of hydrocarbon prices in Burkina Faso to
compare with others UEMOA countries.

3.2 Burkina Faso Transporters
Overview
The road transport market is highly developed in Burkina Faso and represents the first mean to carry goods in and out of the country as per showed in the below table from the last 2018 statistics report published by the MTMUSR (Ministère des Transports, de la Mobilité Urbaine et de la Sécurité Routière) in December 2019[1].
This is also highlighted with the below figures related to the trade volume in 2019 published by INSD[2] (Institut National de la Statistique et de la Démographie ) showing goods are mainly transported by road first if comparing with the sea and air transportation.
According to the last statistics report of CCI published in March 2020[3], 2 356 companies are registered as transporters and offer a remarkably high number of trucks available within the country (trailer, semi-trailer, etc). However, according to main syndicate of transporters represented by the FUTRB (Faitière Unique des Transporteurs Routier du Burkina), there is around 8000 transporters companies operating in Burkina Faso as follows:
- 80% are micro and small size companies with less than five truck and not legally registered
- 16% are medium size companies and legally operating in country
- 3% are administratively organized companies
- Only 1% are considered as professional and developed companies
As observed, transporter companies belong mainly to the informal sector with a high number micro companies without any legal registrations and owning a few trucks. Therefore, this is a point to be considered when contracting a company to respect all the local legislation and to be in position to meet all customers’ requirements.
In this regard, the DGTTM is implementing since 2019 the
Licence d’Exploitation
de Transport Routier, a mandatory certificate for all the
transporters to operate in the country. The transporter must submit
a set of documents to obtain this certificate then a blue number
plate will be assigned for each registered truck. A blue plate is
stating that the truck is dedicated for transportation of goods and
passed the yearly technical control with the CCVA.
Target is 2024-2025 to achieve this process with campaign of
awareness from the DGTTM regional offices to mobilize the
transporters to apply for the license.
Organization & Structure of National Transporters
There are 19 different unions of transporters in country which
created some issues in term of negotiations with the government
illustrated by several and repetitive strikes in the past. Last
February 2021, an umbrella structure gathering all the union was
created under the FUTRB then has presented officially the board to
the MTMUSR in June 2021. Main challenges for the road transport in
country is to renew the fleet characterized by trucks in poor
mechanic condition (mainly due to the overloaded practice) and to
work on the awareness of road safety. In this regard, the
government has launched last 25 October 2021 the first phase of
subscriptions to the credit access mechanism on behalf of the
transporter for the renewal of the fleet. The budget allocated for
this first phase with the support of the World Bank represents
5.500.000.000 CFA with a target of 150 new trucks (here the
DGTTM ‘s communication)
In addition, the FUTRB is doing advocacy to have a ceiling price
system in place as of October 2021, below is the current
T.KM[4] (will
depend on the type and destination of the cargo)
- From 32 to 44 FCFA at international level
- From 80 to 160 FCFA at national level
Transporter capacity to meet humanitarian needs
At this stage, domestics and humanitarian needs are fully covered by the national capacity of the market and none tension to meet both private and humanitarian requirements was observed during the past years. Even in case of a sudden increase of transportation needs by the humanitarian community, the national market will be able to absorb an influx in demand.
Source: INFORM Risk Index September 2021
However, the main challenge is the access to IDPs located in areas where security is the major issue (North, North Center, Sahel, Est regions). Transporters are reluctant or refuse to dispatch their trucks in those borders regions due to the high risk of ambush, kidnapping by terrorist groups and the increase of IEDs on the road.
Regional Transporters Overview
To have a better understanding and knowledge of the transportation sector within the main regions impacted by the humanitarian crisis, meetings with syndicates were conducted during field visits last October 2021.
For more information on transport company & syndicate contact details, please see the following link: 4.8 Transporter Contact List.

Umbrella organization which gathers eighteen different unions within the country and represented by the President Mr. Issoufou MAIGA. FUTRB’s role is to be the interface between the government and the carriers in a participatory relationship and with the main objective of contributing to the development of national transport. Below is the structure of the Faitière:
FUTRB’s goal is the respect of the transportation rules within the country by the companies and with the support of the local authorities. Main issues are the overload practice which damages seriously the roads and the exclusion of truck more than twenty years of service. |

Comments |
Since 2018, freight activity is facing a huge decrease up to 80% due to the security situation and from now only food transportation represents their main core of activities. Due to this situation, the syndicates implemented a system where transportation contracts are shared among several individual companies to guarantee income. |

|
Comments |
However, the commercial transportation within the region is very impacted by the insecurity on the roads with the presence of terrorist groups and IEDs. Incidents occurs on weekly basis and trucks stopped moving in many axes like:
This situation is delaying the humanitarian response to reach the beneficiaries in those areas. Main roads going to Niger border (Kantchari) and Benin border (Nadiagou) are also targeted by the terrorist groups to rob goods and to do carjacking. In addition, transporters have been requested by the terrorist groups not to use security convoys when travelling otherwise they will be targeted. At this stage, transporters are facing a tough economic situation and to maintain their business activity, some transporters decided to leave the region to deliver goods to Ouagadougou from the main corridors (Lomé, Abidjan, etc). The second main issue reported by the Syndicate is the very poor conditions of the roads destroyed in some axes with huge potholes. Then, construction companies awarded to do the rehabilitation within the region are victims of attack by terrorist groups (kidnapping of workers, destruction of building machines, etc) which stopped the activities. |

According to the Syndicate, 70% of the companies well are registered with the CCI and the remaining belongs to the informal sector. |
|
Comments |
The transportation sector is facing a significant decrease of their activities since local markets closed three years ago in some areas like Kelbo, Foubé due to the insecurity within the region. There are no more goods to be transported so many companies have stopped operating. As a date of November 2021, the axes to Bouroum (D22), Silmangué and Pensa are still accessible by road according to the Syndicate. |

3.3 Burkina Faso Manual Labour
Manual Labor is available within all the country and can be implemented through different channels like a private logistics company, a job center agency or inclusive with a service agreement. This service is usually contracted on daily basis for warehousing operations with a flat rate charged per ton or per unit and according to the type of operation. Additional costs can occur such like PPE (Personal Protective Equipment e.g. helmet, closed shoes, gloves, etc), liability insurance or a supervisor. To ensure a permanent manual labour service, it is recommended to implement a long-term agreement which also provides an advantage to maintain the same workers deployed in the warehouse.

3.4 Burkina Faso Telecommunications
Overview
The MDENP (Ministère de l’Économie
numérique, des Postes et de la Transformation Digitale) is
responsible of the development of infrastructures and to promote a
local industry based on ICT (Information Communication
&Technology). In addition, the MDENP is working in closed
coordination with the ARCEP, an
independent structure in charge to monitor compliance with
regulations and commitments made by network operators and service
providers, internet DNS (Domain Name System) domain management,
approval of imported/local made electronic equipment or radio
frequencies management. As of September 2021, three private
operators share the mobile market in Burkina Faso: Moov Africa, Telecel Faso SA, and Orange Burkina Faso SA. According to the last

3.5.1 Burkina Faso Food Suppliers
Overview
In Burkina Faso, the food availability comes mainly from the
national production but a significant increase of importation of
rice has been observed. The main dry cereals produced and consumed
in country are sorghum, millet, and maize. In general, the country
is self-sufficient in sorghum and millet then produces a surplus in
maize. However, the country has to import most of what it consumes
in terms of wheat and wheat flour, palm oil and sugar.
Then, the national market is organized as follows: the production
and trade of local products are done almost entirely by small
producers and wholesalers then the trade in imported products
(especially rice) is carried out in bulk by large companies with
the capacity to make purchases on international markets.
Additional information can be located from sources which are regularly maintained and reflect current facts and figures. For more specific and detailed overviews of food availability and market conditions, please consult the following sources:
WFP Vulnerability and Analysis Mapping (VAM): https://dataviz.vam.wfp.org/

Réseau des Systèmes d’Information des Marchés en Afrique de l’Ouest : https://www.inter-reseaux.org/
For more information on food supplier contact details, please see the following link: 4.10 Supplier Contact List.
Retail Sector
The supermarket sector is mainly controlled by Lebanese traders who import international brands with stores in Ouagadougou or Bobo Dioulasso (Marina Market, Liza Market…) and also by local companies who have retail food chain across the country (Alimentation Le Bon Samaritain, Les Bons Amis…). Otherwise, the food retail sector is dominated by local market with stands (fruit, vegetables…) small general store and street vendors offering same category of product but with a limited range of choice.

the producers (sorghum, millet, maize…). Once completed, the food
is ready to sell within the local market.
Regarding the rice market, this sector is mainly controlled by
large wholesalers with a financial capacity to trade within the
international market. In addition, prices for imported products are
often determined based on negotiations between private companies
and the government.

3.5.2 Burkina Faso Additional Service Providers
Overview
The national market is offering a broad range of services
however the level of quality will depend on the service provider’s
capacity (number of equipment/items, level of technology etc.…)
Additional services are mainly centralized in the major towns of
Ouagadougou and Bobo Dioulasso then might be variable at regional
level (Kaya, Fada Ngourma, Dori, Ouahigouya…).
For more information on company contact details, please see the
following link: 4.11
Additional Services Contact List.
Accommodation
Major towns and main regional cities offer accommodation solutions from hotel, guesthouse to rental house with a large panel of services when available (catering, laundering, internet, car rental, airport transfer etc…). However, due to the current insecurity situation in the country, it is strongly recommended by UNDSS to stay in places which meet minimum security criteria (e.g. fence with a protection wall, generator back-up, professional guard service etc.…). Therefore, humanitarian organizations need to conduct a security assessment prior clearing a place for their own staff. Last 2019, the MCAT issued a list of establishment authorized to operate in country (see here) then additional options are available on Booking.com, Airbnb, rental agencies or announced published on specific groups in social network (e.g. Facebook).
Electricity and Power
The national electricity production is managed by the SONABEL a State Company created by decree n ° 76/344 / PRES / MTP / URB of September 15, 1976. Its role is to produce, import, transport, distribute and export electric power plus to ensure the management of the public service of electricity. In addition, the Burkina Faso's rural electrification process under the program « Electricité pour tous » is developed in collaboration with the Coopel (coopératives d’électricité) which is playing a local role on behalf of the SONABEL. According to the latest ARSE 2019 Activity report[1], SONABEL customers experienced an average of 149 cuts which lasted a total of 86 hours. Therefore, a generator backup is recommended to face power cuts which often occur in the country.
Financial Services
Last September 2021, the BCEAO
(Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest ) has published
the updated list of banks and financial institutions operating in
Burkina Faso. They offer a broad range of services (credits card,
currency exchange, loan credit and web services) with an agency
network across the country.
Money transfer is also available in the country with Western Union,
MoneyGram
or through mobile operators (Orange Money, Moov Money).

Forwarding agents and specialized companies (e.g. Premium Burkina Faso, Burkina Equipment CAT, CFAO Equipment…) have the capacity to provide handling equipment when required. This service can be negotiated either through a rental service contract or a lease plan (forklift, trolley, trans-pallet, crane…) Wooden pallets are available locally with different quality level while plastic pallets need to be imported.
La Poste Burkina Faso is the
principal postal service in country with a network of 116 agencies
across the country and obtained the ISO 9001 V 2015 certification
last May 2019. La Poste Burkina Faso offers a broad range of

Printing and Publishing
Offset and digital printing services are available mainly in Ouagadougou or Bobo Dioulasso with companies fitted with modern equipment and staff trained in the latest printing technologies to meet customers’ needs (e.g. Grande Imprimerie du Burkina, Graphi Imprim, Imprimerie Industrie Graphic du Faso…).
Taxi Companies
This sector is informal and shared taxis recognizable by their
green color are a common way to circulate in the urban area. A
shared taxi is following a set route then picks up passengers along
the road. Overall, shared taxis are not really in a good mechanic
state and drivers do not respect the number of passengers
authorized to sit in their car. Rate starts from 300 CFA and the
price will increase depending on the final destination and/or the
number of luggage. Therefore, it is not recommended to use a shared
taxi however there is alternative options like to privatize a taxi
for one hour or the full day, to rent a car with driver through a
hotel or to book a taxi from a newly company called Taxi Jaune
available in Ouagadougou.

Vehicle Rental
Vehicle for rent is available in the country from sedan car to 4x4 and with or without driver. Rental can be negotiated on daily basis or through a long-term agreement (e.g. Locaufaso, CFAO Motors Burkina, Sags-sarl Location…)
Waste Management and Disposal Services
Waste management is under the responsibility of the municiplities but they do not have the capacity to organize such of activities therefore hygiene and water-borne diseases are a serious concern in country. In this regard, the government and municipalities are working closely to implement waste management solution like the SDGD (Schéma Directeur de Gestion des Déchets) in Ouagadougou. In addition, private companies or local initiative are participating to improve the waste management and to sensibilize the population to change their habits (stop burning or dumping trash everywhere).
Regarding bio medical waste management, the government is implementing a new plan called Plan de Lutte contre les Infections et de Gestion des Déchets (PLIGD) to improve the system for fighting infections associated with healthcare in the context of COVID-19.
Regarding the electrical and electronic equipment waste management, the MEEVCC (Ministère de l'Environnement, de l'Economie verte et du Changement Climatique) has signed an agreement with the group Société Générale de Surveillance SA which include a service covering all stage from production to recovery, from recycling to sustainable waste disposal.
