Industrial Development
Since its inception, SIMI has been actively involved in a number of industrial development projects in The Gambia. Such involvement varied from providing consultancy services such as feasibility and market studies, to helping secure project financing from local and international sources. For example, SIMI was instrumental to the building of a water bottling plant in The Gambia, as well as the development of its first private industrial development zone, and its first Free Zone. In the near future, SIMI will work closely with Indian companies and partners to bring Indian appropriate technology (especially agro-industrial technology) to Africa, thereby helping alleviate poverty on the continent.
