Hillside Triumph Ltd takes control of LafargeHolcim Guinea, now known as Ciments de Guinée S.A.

Hillside Triumph Ltd is pleased to announce to its partners and the Guinean and international business community the acquisition of LafargeHolcim Guinée S.A., a leading industrial player in the cement sector in the Republic of Guinea.

This transaction marks a major step in the strategic control of industrial assets to support national development and intra-African trade. Following the sale of LafargeHolcim Guinée S.A. by LafargeHolcim Maroc Afrique, the company has adopted a new identity and officially becomes Ciments de Guinée S.A., thus reconnecting with its historical roots and reaffirming its local presence. “Ciments de Guinée now embodies an industrial vision driven by long-term committed investors.

The objective is to consolidate operational performance, strengthen local impact, and actively contribute to the country’s economic transformation,” stated Nirilanto Rafilibera, Director of Hillside Triumph.

A strategy of continuity and openness

Hillside Triumph operates according to a logic of:

  • continuity of operations and preservation of social achievements,
  • strengthening industrial capacity through a progressive investment plan,
  • sustainable integration based on the mobilization of skills, partners, and public stakeholders.

This change in governance represents a major opportunity to reposition the company as a strong, competitive, and socially responsible local player.

This operation illustrates the State’s commitment to supporting private investment dynamics by favoring an open and incentive-based approach. By voluntarily foregoing traditional control mechanisms, the authorities have fostered an environment conducive to attracting local and international capital. This approach underscores the priority given to industrial development and economic diversification, while simultaneously strengthening the confidence of private partners in major infrastructure projects.
