InfraCo Africa

InfraCo Africa, established in 2004 and based in London, United Kingdom, is an infrastructure investor dedicated to alleviating poverty through investment in sub-Saharan infrastructure projects. The company focuses on funding and developing projects in sectors or regions where the private sector typically hesitates to invest at an early stage. By bearing the time and cost risks associated with initial project development, InfraCo Africa facilitates the transition of these projects from concept to bankable investment opportunities. Once the viability of a project is demonstrated, InfraCo aims to exit by transferring ownership to private sector developers and financiers, thereby mobilizing further private investment and enhancing infrastructure in underserved areas.
