2 1 Guinea Country Profile

2.1

 

Generic Information:

Guinea (pronunciation: ni), officially the Republic of Guinea (French: République de Guinée), is

a country in West Africa. Formerly known as French Guinea (French: Guinée française), the

modern country is sometimes referred to as Guinea-Conakry in order to distinguish it from other

parts of the wider region of the same name, such as Guinea-Bissau and Equatorial Guinea.

Guinea has a population of 10.5 million and an area of 245,860 square kilometres (94,927 mi ).2

Guinea is a republic. The president is directly elected by the people and is head of state and

head of government. The unicameral Guinean National Assembly is the legislative body of the

country, and its members are also directly elected by the people. The judicial branch is led by

the Guinea Supreme Court, the highest and final court of appeal in the country.

Guinea is a predominantly Islamic country, with Muslims representing 85 percent of the

population. Guinea's people belong to twenty-four ethnic groups. French, the official language

of Guinea, is the main language of communication in schools, in government administration, in

the media, and among the country's security forces, but more than twenty-four indigenous

languages are also spoken.

Guinea's economy is largely dependent on agriculture and mineral production. It is the world's

second largest producer of bauxite, and has rich deposits of diamonds and gold.

2.2 1.1 Guinea Humanitarian Background

 

Disasters, Conflicts and Migration

Natural Disasters

Yes / No Comments / Details

Drought Yes The most severe drought took place in 2001.

Deforestation, desertification, soil contamination and

erosion, overpopulation in forest regions and poor

mining practices have led to environmental damage. 

Earthquakes Yes Tremors could occur. An earthquake in 1983 hit

Conakry, Boffa and Forécariah leaving 300 victims

and thousands injured and homeless.

Epidemics Yes Ebola outbreak in 2014/2015, Malaria, severe Cholera

outbreaks, Measles, HIV/AIDS, Neglected Tropical

Diseases, Yellow fever, Tuberculosis and Meningitis

Extreme Temperatures

Yes In the northern parts of the country in Boke region

during the dry season temperature can go above 40°

Celsius.

Guinea

Version 13 18

Disasters, Conflicts and Migration

Flooding Yes Floods during the rainy season from July to October,

especially in Guinea Forest, and along the Ivory

Coast, Liberian and Sierra Leone borders. In Low

Guinea, rivers are flooded and thus road traffic is often

blocked. Prefectures of particular concern are: Boké,

Dabola, Kankan, Mandiana. Immediate problems after

floods include access to aforementioned areas of

concern, as well as loss of harvests and food stocks.

Insect Infestation

Yes There might in some years be migratory locusts in the

Northern East area.

Mudslides Yes Due to the heavy rain in the rainy season and the

topography of the land and soil in addition to the

abusive deforestation.

Volcanic Eruptions

No There are no known active volcanoes in Guinea, only

an extinct one which formed the three islands just

facing Conakry.

High Waves / Surges

Yes Guinea has a 320 km of coastline; therefore the

country is exposed to an eventual tsunami or floods

caused by high waves in case a major earthquake

happens in the Atlantic Ocean.

Wildfires Yes Occur during the dry season. The main issue is the

lack of will in the local population to fight these

incidents.

High Winds Yes The Harmattan is a cold-dry and dusty trade wind,

blowing over the West African region. This north-

easterly wind blows from the Sahara Desert into the

Gulf of Guinea between the end of November and the

middle of March.

Guinea

Version 13 19

Disasters, Conflicts and Migration

Other Comments

epicentre of the

Ebola outbreak in

2014 which

heavily affected

the country. 

Man-Made Issues

Civil Strife Yes The presidential elections will take place in 11 th

October 2015 which might lead to protests and

manifestations.

International Conflict

Yes Guinea is exposed to international conflicts such as in

Ivory coast or south Sénégal. The civil wars in Liberia

and Sierra Leone also affected the country.

Internally Displaced Persons

Yes N/A

Refugees Present

Yes 5,500 Refugees from Ivory Coast are present in the

region of N’zérékoré

2.2.1 Calamities and Seasonal Effects

Seasonal Effects on Transport

Transport Comments From (month) to (month)

Primary Road Transport

The primary roads are in good condition as they are paved and

there is continuous rehabilitation work on them. However, in some

parts they can be affected during the rainy season especially

between Kissidougou and Guékedou and between Guékedou and

Macenta.

June -

November

Secondary Road Transport

The secondary roads are generally dirt roads which deteriorate

very quickly in the rainy season making them impracticable.

May -

November

Guinea

Version 13 21

Seasonal Effects on Transport

Rail Transport

The rail transport isexclusively for some mining companies. The

Conakry Express of 40 Km long is used to transport passengers

only twice a day.

 

Air Transport

The heavy rain and storms in the rainy season might cause some

delays and the Harmattan dust storms during the dry season

might reduce the visibility and cause delays.

January -

December

Waterway Transport

The port of Conakry suffers from congestion especially during the

rainy season.  

June -

September

There are a significant number of transporters in the Conakry therefore there is no lack of

trucks. The harvest season has little impact on the availability of trucks as the farmers and

merchants use the cheapest trucks owned by individuals or small companies. Also, the type of

trucks suitable for their transport are mainly of 20 mt or less due to the bad roads. The

secondary and tertiary roads are in bad condition and it is difficult for heavy trucks (more than

20 mt) to use them during the rainy season. The Port of Conakry faces delays and congestion

from 15 June up to 15 September due to the rainy season. 

Seasonal Effects on Storage and Handling (economic, social, climate…)

Activity Comments From <month> to <month>

Storage In general, there is limited storage capacity in the country. January to

December

Handling Due to the high rate of unemployment, daily workers are

Due to the limited capacity in storage and the difficult transportation during the rainy season, it

is highly recommended to pre-position humanitarian assistance (Food, NFI and other) closer to

the beneficiaries before the rainy season.

2.2.2 Capacity and Contacts for In-Country Emergency Response

Government

SENAH “Service National de l’Action Humanitaire,” (National Service for Humanitarian Action),

is responsible for the management and prevention of national catastrophes, and liaises with

different actors (local and national authorities, NGOs, etc.) in the case of emergency. SENAH

has no financial or logistics capacity that can be effectively used. SENAH’s activities are not

very visible but they may act as government part in case of serious emergency in collaboration

with the UN team. They participate in cluster meetings and contribute to contingency planning

elaboration. SENAH is the governmental interface to emergencies with decentralized structures

at level of sub regions where focal points are based. BRICS, part of SENAH, is in N’zerekoré

and interested in the issues of refugees. 

In 2014, Guinea was the epicentre of the Ebola Virus Disease outbreak in West Africa with the

first detected cases in March of that year in the Guinea Forest region in the south east of the

country. A national health emergency was declared on 13 August 2014 and a Presidential

Decree established the National Coordination Committee for Monitoring and Control of the

Ebola Epidemic, under the chairmanship of Dr. Sakoba Keita and the vice chairmanship of Dr.

Sekou Conde. This committee was empowered to organize all necessary measures for the

epidemiological monitoring of citizens visiting Guinea, informing the public about protective

measures, and training staff on the use of disease surveillance and protection. The MoH had

also activated the national and district emergency management committees to coordinate the

response.

Humanitarian Community

The mechanism of emergency preparedness is functional in Guinea and more enhanced in the

forest Guinea (Côte d'Ivoire, Liberia, Sierra Leone) border zone. Heads of United Nations

agencies, NGOs representatives of and Government representatives participate at different

levels in emergency preparedness. The SMT and UNCT are heads of UN agency meetings,

involved in security questions and operational issues and ahead by the Resident Coordinator.

COPIA coordinates emergency operations and brings together heads or deputy heads of UN

agencies, NGOs and Government. Cluster leads are nominated by agencies according to their

mandate. Different clusters are represented in the forest Guinea in sectorial meeting. UN

agencies send out joint funding appeals for emergencies. A call for funds of the CAPE is

ongoing involving UNHCR and WFP. CERF funds are also requested from time to time

2.3 1.2 Guinea Regulatory Departments

Guinea is a member of the Economic Community of West African States and is also a member

of the MANO River Union. The MANO River Union aims to strengthen the capacity of Member

States to integrate their economies and coordinate development programs in the area of peace

building, as a prerequisite to any development, trade promotion, development of industry,

energy, agriculture, natural resources, transport and telecommunications, monetary and

financial affairs; in short, all aspects of economic and social life of the Member States.

The ‘Direction de la Legislation, de la Règlementation et des Relation Internationales’ is in

charge of preparing the different legislative text projects and regulations for Customs purposes.

The Ministry of Energy and Hydraulics (MEH) is in charge of the supervision, control and

regulation of the sector. It defines and implements the energy policy and the structure of the

tariffs. The National Council for Electricity acts as a consultative organization. It consists of

representatives of several ministerial departments, delegates of the dealers, representatives of

consumers and independent experts. The council is the instrument of mediation between the

various actors of the electricity sector. The Electricity Sector Regulatory Body was created in

September 2005. It still lacks a clear definition of its mission.

The Direction Nationale de Postes et Telecommunications (DNPT) regulates the

telecommunications in the country.

The Ministry of Economy and Finance has the mandate of designing, re-elaboration,

implementation, monitoring and reassessment of government policy matters in Economic,

Finance and Budget.

The Minister Delegate for the Budget shall, as delegated by the Minister of Economy and

Finance, manage the functions relating to the preparation and execution, taxation and customs.

The National Office for the Control of Quality is in charge of controlling the quality of all the food

entering the country and issuing the Phytosanitary certificate accordingly.

Donations to refugees are free of taxes. NGOs pay only the RTL 2% and the TVA 18% on their

importation. The diplomatic mission and similar organisations are exempted from duties. The

donations and importation of UN agencies are not subject to the pre-shipment inspection. 

 

Organizational Requirements to obtain Duty Free Status

United Nations Agencies

 United Nation Agencies have to request a customs duty free. The request must consist of a

letter: “Demande d’Exonération Diplomatique” or FDI, and the following documents:

UN project identification

Original B/L

Airway bill or consignment note

Type of items

Number of parcels

Guinea

Version 13 26

Organizational Requirements to obtain Duty Free Status

Certificate of value

Gift certificate

The aforementioned documents with the original letter request (+ 3 copies) are then given to

the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Guinea. One copy is given to the clearing Agent. Usually the

Ministry of Foreign Affairs responds within 2 weeks, with a signature of acceptance for the

UN request. 

The minister is the only authority authorised to sign the document. The signed letter from the

Ministry of Foreign Affairs is given to the clearing Agent, who issues a FDI form and submits

it together with the Exoneration to customs to obtain a customs waiver.

Non Governmental Organizations

NGOs have to present following documents for their imports:

Original B/L

Airway bill or consignment note

Type of items

Number of parcels

Invoice

NGOs must also have a gift certificate (donation certificate) which proves to local authorities

that goods are not for resale, and are a donation to be used for humanitarian purposes.

Exemption Certificate Application Procedure

Duties and Taxes Exemption Application Procedure

Generalities (include a list of necessary documentation)

UN Agencies: The UN Agency concerned has to write a letter requesting a duty and taxes

waiver to the national customs office of Conakry. The Agency must also include all of the

above mentioned documents and the signed letter of “demande d’exonération diplomatique”

(FDI); without the reply from the national customs office, it’s impossible to sort out the

container from the Conakry port.

Guinea

Version 13 27

Duties and Taxes Exemption Application Procedure

NGOs: When NGOs begin activity in the country, the best for the organisation is to get a sort

of “Memorandum of Understanding”, called “Convention d’Etablissement” signed by Ministry

of Interior & Security. This Ministry sends a signed protocol to the Ministry on which the NGO

“depends”, (for example NGOs working with health issues will discuss with the Ministry of

Health). This procedure facilitates a lot of the future importations.

Then, NGOs have to write a letter requesting a duty and taxes waiver to the national customs

office of Conakry, but through the Ministry of the concerned activity (usually health,

agriculture or education) with the set of documents attached If the NGO obtain a duty waiver

the organisation should have to pay: Redevance Traitement des Liquidations = RTL: 2% on

CIF value of the goods concerned. CIF Value (GNF) + RTL (in GNF) = Base of calculation of

VAT, if goods concerned are subjected to VAT application (See above).

Customs Clearance Procedures

Transit Regime

Transit from Guinea to neighbouring countries is possible for both local purchase and for goods

received in Conakry port. No transport bond, bonded warehouses situation. UN organisations

or NGOs have to make sure the proper documents are signed by local customs services and

the copy of customs clearance is attached for all imports received through Conakry port.

Therefore, the organisation at the receiving country has to make sure that the customs

clearance is also made at the first entry point of the country.

The following documents are requested in order to establish a transit cargo:

To note that the payment of a guarantee of taxes is THE condition to be fulfilled by a

clearing agent authorized to clear in this office.

A detailed declaration will be needed with a transit request and an invoice, a Waybill,

Grey Card for the vehicle and EMAGUI identification visa for the transit to Bamako.

The following requirements must be met at the international transit office:

Address a letter (or request) for transit to the National Director of Customs

Establish the statement by a clearing agent authorized by the Customs.

The word "transit" shall appear on the manifest for all goods to be admitted under this

customs procedure.

The fuel must not be declared in transit

Guinea

3 2 Guinea Logistics Infrastructure

 

The development of the infrastructure is clearly defined as a national priority in the government

strategy documents.

A number of major projects have been executed or are underway, especially the hydro

electrical dam of Kaléta, the acquisition of Electric production capacity of 100 megawatts, the

rehabilitation and the extension of the electric network in Conakry, the asphalting of urban

roads in Conakry and the cities in the country and the enlargement of the Autonomic Port of

Conakry. However, it is important to underline the weakness of the human and financial

capacities for an efficient execution of these projects and the monitoring and evaluation of the

quality. The advanced degradation of transport infrastructure and energy production and the

absence of massive investment in these areas for several years make insufficient the

significant efforts since 2012. However, setting Kaleta dam service on June 2015 had

significantly improved electricity service conditions in Lower Guinea /Conakry and is

encouraging the development of economic activity. The total production capacity of Kaleta dam

has not been totally exploited (around 10 MW produced from 240 MW available) due mainly to

the poor condition of the electricity network in the country.

Regulatory frameworks in the field of infrastructures exist, but the application of certain texts

encounters difficulties. It requires an update by the government to address new challenges,

particularly in the mining sector investment. The transport and logistics sector should benefit

from these investments. When new players, such as mining companies, are involved in the

realization of transport infrastructure, the question of coordination of stakeholders reveals a

particular interest. The public finance reform program initiated in 2011 is beginning to show

results in terms of improved governance and transparency in the management of public funds,

including for infrastructure. But weaknesses persist for public procurement: the new code has

only been applied since September 2014. The market control is entrusted to the administration

and control of large projects (CPGA). Furthermore, the new Organic Law on Finance Laws

(LORLF), adopted in August 2013, establishes multiannual loans to public investment projects,

as well as institutionalization of the concept of payment and commitment appropriations.

The transport sector in the Republic of Guinea is mainly dominated by road transport; about 95

% of the movement of people and goods are carried by road. In 1985 the industry experienced

the first actions of privatization especially in the maritime sub-sector where all maritime auxiliary

services (transit, stevedoring, handling etc.) have been privatized. Gradually the other sub-

sectors were also privatized: urban and interurban road transport and air transport.

Projects executed or underway are:

Prefecture of Boke, this river port of 41 hectares that will extend over the bank of the Rio

Nuñez, evacuates bauxite minerals from the Mining Society Boke and other companies in

this prefecture. With a capacity of 230 million tons including 50 million tons of bauxite per

year, this port will provide more than 3,000 jobs for youth. The work was completed in

three months by the Chinese company Winning Alliance ports with a total cost of US

$100 million.

Conakry

The Guinean Authority of Civil Aviation (AGAC) is the competent authority in Guinea for

aviation safety and airport security. The National Air Navigation Agency ensures the safety,

regularity and efficiency of public air traffic in the Republic of Guinea, management and

exploitation of domestic aerodromes. There is one international airport in Conakry, 13 national

airfields and three private airfields: in Beyla (exploited by Rio Tinto) Kawaas and Sangaradi

(exploited by the CBG). Some of these airfields are not operational. There is no national carrier

but there are projects on paper to create one in the near future. Currently there are four private

companies flying nationally on charter basis which are Eagle Air, Probiz, SAS Guinea and Con

Air in addition to the humanitarian flights by UNHAS and Aviation without Borders.

The airport of Conakry is managed by SOGEAC.

Eagle Air Guinea SA, which only offers charter flights from its base in Conakry, has 3 planes.

Procedures for Foreign Registered Aircraft

The application procedure for traffic rights at the International Conakry airport (which are the

same for chartered flights and humanitarian flights) are as follows:

72 hours before the flight departure: A letter signed by the Representative of the

concerned Organization is to be sent to the Civil Air Aviation in Guinea (Direction

Nationale de l’Aviation Civile). The letter should be signed and returned by the CAA. The

following information should be specified in the letter: Registration number of the aircraft,

flight number, call sign, the pilot’s license, and the purpose of the flight, specifying also

the name of the company and the name and address of the chatterer. Also to be

attached is a copy of the insurance certificate and a copy of the airworthiness certificate.

As soon as possible when the charter contract is confirmed with a schedule, the air

company / the operator of the aircraft should send an SITA telex requesting a landing

permit number and over flight permit to Conakry. Like all international airports, Conakry

has a SITA address. The request coming from an air company has to contain the exact

same information as the letter to the Civil Air Aviation in Guinea, specifying: Type of

freight, type of context (for instance, for emergency humanitarian aid), name and address

details of the chatterer of the aircraft and the consignee at the destination.

Usually the answer from the Civil Air Aviation will be ready within 24 hours after the SITA

message has been received by the Civil Air Aviation. If there are problems getting the

permission the charterer should ask the consignee - the humanitarian organisation at the

destination - to take an appointment with the Civil Air Aviation to find out what are the problems

and discuss them with the Guinean authorities.

Guinea

Version 13 48

For charted flights carrying VIP passengers, additional clearance should be requested at the

Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Normally for chartered flights you need to send a pre-advice to SOGEAC to book the handling,

minimum 12 hours before ETD of the flight.

For information on Guinea procedures, please directly contact the Directorate of the National

Aviation. Contact details can be found in the  4.5 Guinea Airport Company Contact List (see

In order to improve the airport services and attract more air companies (especially cargo),

SOGEAC is working on obtaining the RA3 which is a cargo-handling entity located in a third

country that is validated and approved as such on the basis of an EU aviation security

validation. The RA3 must ensure that security controls, including screening, are applied to all

EU/EEA bound consignments and protected from interference. The RA3 and the KC3 checklist

is the instrument used by the EU aviation security validator for assessing the level of security

applied to EU/EEA bound air cargo or air mail or under the responsibility of the entity seeking

designation as a RA3 or KC3. The completed checklist is signed by the EU aviation security

validator and, where applicable, commented by the validated entity. If the EU aviation security

validator concludes that the entity has succeeded in the complying with the objectives referred

to in the checklist, a validation report shall be given to the validated entity. The validation report

shall state that the entity is designated Third Country EU aviation security validated Regulars

Agent (RA3) or Known Consignor (KC3). The audit will be conducted by Air France. This is the

first step to obtain the ACC3 = ‘Air Cargo or Mail Carrier operating into the Union from a Third

Country Airport’. It is required by the European Union (including Iceland, Norway and

Switzerland) for carriers to fly air cargo into or through the EU. As from 1 July 2014, carrier

stations in third countries must have a Security Validation in order to acquire or maintain their

ACC3 designation. This validation needs to be reissued every five years.

Navigation Charges

The navigation charges are distinguished by the charges to be paid to the Guinean National

Navigation Authority for flights level below 100 which is calculated as following equation: weight

of the plane in mt / 1  x US $65. In addition to that there are the regional navigation charges to

be paid to the Flight Information Region based at Roberts International Airport in Monrovia,

Liberia for flights level above 100. The landing charges at Gbessia International Airport are

detailed per metric ton as each metric ton has a different amount for charging. Airspace is

divided into lower and upper airspace and into Flight Information Regions (FIRs), which can, as

required, encompass Terminal Control Areas (TMAs) or Upper Control Areas (UTAs). An FIR is

an airspace with specific dimensions, in which an information service and an alert service are

provided. The Roberts FIR TMA extends 40 nm north of Conakry and 99 nm south of Monrovia.

The Roberts FIR is a dismemberment of the Dakar FIR. It was established in January 1975 by

Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, which decided to manage their airspace jointly. The FIR was

Guinea

Version 13 53

named after Roberts International Airport (also known as Robertsfield), which hosted the

headquarters at its creation. The headquarters was transferred to Freetown in June 1990

because of the war in Liberia. It has been based in Conakry since June 1997 as a result of the

war in Sierra Leone.

Guinea Roads

National roads in Guinea represent 16% of the 44,301 km of the inventoried road network. This

network includes prefecture (or secondary) roads - 36%; and community (or tertiary) roads -

48%. The overall state of national roads is very unsatisfactory (paved: good 16%, average 31%

and bad 50%; unpaved: good 6%, average 51% and bad 43%). There are different projects that

the government intends to launch with the support of development partners. The road plan

contains a portfolio of 31 priority projects estimated at 1.12 billion Euros (US $1.54 billion, GNF

10.8 trillion). It covers:

Construction or rehabilitation of 2,262 km of national roads; 

Construction of 31 km of two-lane roads; 

Rehabilitation of 96 km of national roads; 

Reinforcement of 725 km of national roads; 

Improvement of 3,000 km of roads for prefectures and 4,000 km of community road; 

Construction 620 km of urban roads, including 140 km in Conakry; and

Installation of five (5) toll-weighing stations.

On 30 June 2015, Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) announced  a loan of EUR 30 million to

EBOMAF Group for the rehabilitation and paving of a section of 194 km of National Highway 6

(RN 6), connecting Kissidougou and Kankan. Built in the 1970s as part of the Guinea-Cuban

cooperation, the stretch of the N6 between Kissidougou and Kankan displays a serious state of

deterioration, and high congestion levels and heavy rains will make the transport of persons,

freight and livestock extremely difficult.

Sogea-Satom is realizing the rehabilitation of the RN2, a distance of 53 km between

Kissidougou and Guéckédou, as well as the reconstruction of ten bridges. The project is worth

€55 m and is funded by the European Union (10th EDF program). It will be implemented within

24 months.

 

The road network in Guinea Republic is composed of 44,301 km as follows:  

National road (RN): 7,576 km of which:

2,346 km is paved roads

5,230 km is dirt roads

Prefectural roads: 15,879 km (dirt road)

Communal roads: 19,846 km (dirt road)

Urban roads: 1,000 km

 

On the national and regional roads there are the following crossings:

Ferries:  24 in good and bad conditions

Wooden bridges: 5

Temporary bridges: 31

Concrete bridges: 1,946

Metal bridges: 39 (26 renovated)

 

The national roads are composed of the following itineraries:

N1: connecting Conakry - Coyah - Kindia - Mamou - Dabola - Kouroussa - Kankan

N2: connecting Mamou - Faranah - Kissidougou -Guékédou - Macenta - Nzérékoré -

Lola. In dry season can reach Yamoussoukro (Côte d'Ivoire)

N4: connecting Coyah - Forécariah - Farmoreya - towards Sierra Leone

3.3.2 Road Security

The road security is low due to the road conditions and absence of proper regulations and

implementation of road safety measures. The roads in general are in bad condition. The

absence of speed limits, bad condition of vehicles, drivers without a minimum knowledge of

road regulations, no lights during the night and the overloading of trucks are all factors that

impact the road security level in the country. In some regions, armed robberies might occur on

certain roads. It is advisable not to travel during the night.

3.3.3 Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits

In Guinea, there is one weighbridge at the exit of Kagbelen but it it has been a long time since it

was last used since there are no regulations on axle load limits. The overloaded trucks

accelerate the deterioration of the roads.

Even though it appears on the maps, in reality the railway between Conakry and Kankan does

not exist anymore (the rails themselves were either sold or taken away). Currently there are

four different railways operating in Guinea:

Bauxite railway company – Conakry railway (CBG)

Conakry - Kindia: A standard gauge railway line with a length of 105 km. The route is

operated by the state owned mining company Societé des Bauxites de Kindia (SBK).

The transport includes the delivery of bauxite (annually 1,2 million mt) from Kindia to

Conakry harbour.

Boké railway: The Northern Line of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) gauge (standard gauge)

carries about 12 million mt per annum. The route is: Port Kamsar – port Boké -

Sangarédi - bauxite mine. The Company de Bauxite du Guinea (CBG), assisted by the

Aluminum Corporation of America (Alcoa), operates the Boké Railway, which has been

quietly getting on with heavy haul for the last 40 years with six-daily 13,000-ton bauxite

trains behind pairs of EMD SD40-2 locomotives.

Conakry Express: The Chinese International Funding (CIF) funded initiative delivered a

passenger rail transport system in June 2010 which provides a 30 km of service in

Conakry area. This public railway service between Conakry and Simbaya (36 km) runs

once a day in each direction.

One of the major projects in the near future will be to rehabilitate the Conakry - Kankan rail

network. A Chinese company has started the renovation to join Kindia to Kankan and up to

Bamako. The main network function is to transfer mine products from the site of production to

the port Kamsar or Conakry. Guinea has 1,086 km of railways.

The transport company AMA Africa is in partnership with the company RUSAL which is

realizing a container terminal station at Debele near Kindia (Road N1 from Conakry, direction

Mamou). It is possible to transport the containers by railway from Conakry port to Debelé /

Kindia; this train connection is today used by RUSAL for Bauxite transportation from Kimbo.

The Surface of the Debele site is 36,000 m² which can accommodate 300 TEU in the first

Guinea

Version 13 115

phase. This dry port is dedicated to the Mali corridor; after the containers arrival by train at

Debelé dry port, the containers should be positioned on trucks to reach Bamako via Kankan as

there is no railway to Kankan.

Proposed Trans-Guinean Railways: The heavy duty Trans-Guinean Railways is about 750 km

long and would be 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) (standard gauge). It goes from iron ore mines in the

south east and bauxite mines in the north to a new port at Matakong. The route would be:

Matakong - Deepwater port - Forécariah - Madina Woula (way station) - Bambafouga(junction)

– Marela (way station) - Faranah - Tiro – Kissidougou (way station) - Macenta - Koule -

Nzerekore - Lola – Simandou (iron ore deposit) - Diéké – Nimba (iron ore) – Pontiola (bauxite)

– Tougué (branch terminus - bauxite).

The SGTE Société Générale de Technique et d'Études is the National company for

rehabilitation and modernisation of the Railways of Guinea.

This line is 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) and parallels the Southern line. The route is: Conakry

(capital and port) - Kindia - bauxite mine.

This mode of transport is insignificant due to the navigability on the two rivers (Niger from

Kouroussa and Milo from Kankan) towards Bamako (Republic of Mali) being possible over a

period of only four months in the year.

3.6 2.6 Guinea Storage Assessment

There is limited available storage capacity in the country and the existing structures usually

need rehabilitation and repairs. In Conakry city, it is difficult to find any suitable warehouses of

big capacity and in good condition inside the city premises. Transporters and Freight

Forwarding companies usually have some storage capacity. During the Ebola crisis, WFP

deployed Mobile Storage Units in the country for the special operation of common services /

Logistics Cluster by establishing three logistics bases with the main one in Conakry near the

Gbessia International Airport, one in Nzérékoré and the third one in Kissidougou. These three

logistics bases provided storage facilities to all humanitarian and governmental actors involved

in the Ebola response. In some localities, there isn’t any structure that can be used as storage

facility while in other places maybe an old cinema theatre could serve as temporary storage

facility. 

For information on storage contacts, please see the following link: 4.6 Guinea Storage and

Milling Company Contact List (see page 196)

3.6.1 Commercial Storage

Limited commercial storage exists in the country. It might be time consuming to find a suitable

warehouse especially in the remote areas.

3.6.2 Storage Used by Humanitarian Organizations

Humanitarian organizations use their own storage facility, either a warehouse or in the empty

rooms in their offices. During the Ebola crisis, the humanitarian organizations opted to use the

storage facilities provided by the WFP Special Operation of Common Services & Logistics

Cluster. In order to provide suitable storage capacity for the Ebola Response, WFP Common

Services/Logistics Cluster established three Logistics bases: Main Logistics Base (MLB) next to

Conakry airport and two Forward Logistics Bases (FLB) in Kissidougou and N’Zérékoré. In

Guinea

Version 13 119

addition to that, WFP Common Services/ Logistics Cluster provided Mobile Storage Units

(MSU) to the humanitarian organizations including transport and erecting the MSU in different

locations upon request. There are forwarding companies offering services in stock

management but this option was not used by the humanitarian organizations as the main

preferences is to run their own facilities. The major humanitarian organizations storing items in

the country are the Pharmacy Central de Guinée (PCG), World Health Organization, UNICEF

and WFP for both food and non-food items. Most of the items are Personal Protection

Equipment (PPE), preventive materials against Ebola and food. The International Federation of

the Red Cross (IFRC) is currently supporting the Guinean Red Cross by financing the

establishment of a new headquarters for the Guinean Red Cross that could serve as a main

logistics base for their activities. During the Ebola response, WFP Common Services supported

the Pharmacy Central de Guinea (PCG) with storage facilities and transport.

3.6.4 Cold Chain

There are not many cold chain facilities in the country. WFP Common Service/Logistics Cluster

is deploying 6 Reefer containers at the Main Logistics Base in Conakry, 2 Reefer containers in

Forward Logistics Base in N’zérékoré and 2 others in Kissidougou’s Forward Logistics. All the

containers are 40’ containers. The Programme Elargie de Vaccination ‘PEV’ located in the PCG

premises has cold chain facilities in Conakry and in the country as shown in the table here

below. Their actual capacity satisfies their actual needs even though in some cases when there

is a major vaccination campaign they find themselves relying on other structures to provide

them with temporary storage. In 2015 – 2017 the PEV will be supported by DAVI and many of

their installations will be renewed in 2016 which is the first phase of the project. In the second

phase, the 4 PEV trucks will be replaced with new ones.

4.1 Overview

The following sections contain information on the service and supply industries of Guinea.

The service and supply sector in Guinea is competitive and offers good service quality. The

majority of the goods is imported as local factories and transformation industries are rare due to

the high cost of electricity. There is a good number of suppliers and service providers especially

in the capital Conakry.

4.2 3.1 Guinea Fuel

There is no refinery in the country nor domestic production of oil. A National Import Committee

is responsible for launching international bids to import fuel in the country. The HFO fuel for the

centrals is managed separately from the other common fuel such as petrol, diesel and JET A1.

The Société Guinéene de Pétrole (SGP) is the only entity authorized to import fuel and it is the

main authority in this field. The SGP has the following nominal storage capacity; 73,000 m for 3

diesel, 33,000 m for petrol and 3,700 m for JET A1. Two tankers arrive at Conakry port on a 3 3

monthly basis to be offloaded and stocked at SGP facilities. After receiving the fuel in SGP

tanks, the private distributors (17 different distributors including Total and Vivo Energy) can

withdraw the quantities allocated to each one of them by submitting an order form. The

companies can transport the fuel either using their own fleet or via their sub-contractors. It is

strictly prohibited to import fuel without the authorization from the SGP or to use any other entry

point except of Conakry Port. It is possible to find service stations in the main cities and towns

Guinea

Version 13 132

and along the national roads. There are more than 150 Total stations and around 60 Vivo

Energy (Shell), which have storing capacity of 40,353 m . Total Ltd offers various services 3

including payment with their NIMBA card and they also have a partnership with Orange to pay

by Orange Money.

For information on Guinea Conakry Fuel contact details, please see the following links:

4.1 Guinea Government Contact List (see page 151)

4.7 Guinea Fuel Provider Contact List (see page 198)

Information may also be found at: which is http://www.mytravelcost.com/petrol-prices/ updated monthly.

4.2.1 Fuel Pricing

The importation of the fuel is done by transparent bidding which is collectively managed by a

tripartite committee composed of representatives of the administration, distribution companies

and the Guinean Petroleum Corporation. The fuel prices are determined on a monthly basis

according to the variations of the international prices. According to The SGP, the fuel in Guinea

is subsidized.

Fuel Prices as of: 15.09.2015 (local currency and US$)

Petrol (per litre) 8,000 GNF (US $0.95)

Diesel (per litre) 8,000 GNF (US $0.95)

Jet A1 (per litre)

Domestic flights

International flights

9,539 GNF (US $1.231)

7,359 GNF (US $0.950)

4.2.2 Seasonal Variations

Some delays in offloading a tanker during the rainy season might occur but does not disturb the

availability of fuel in the country. Gas stations close their operations in the evening at around

22h00 and reopen at 06h00 in the morning. Inside the country, there are individuals selling fuel

at higher prices as service stations are scarce.

Seasonal Variations

Are there national priorities in the availability of fuel? Yes

Guinea

Version 13 133

Seasonal Variations

Is there a rationing system? Yes

Is fuel to lower income/vulnerable groups subsidized? Subsidized

Can the local industry expand fuel supply to meet humanitarian needs? Yes

Is it possible for a humanitarian organization to contract directly a reputable supplier/distributor to provide its fuel needs?

Yes

4.2.3 Fuel Transportation

Fuel transportation is either ensured by the distributors or by their sub-contractors. Some

service stations in the country might face shortage in supplies due to the bad roads and the

delays that might occur during the rainy season. During the Ebola crisis, there was an

agreement between the Logistics Cluster and Total to have an emergency stock of 5,000 litres

in different locations. In addition to that TOTAL Guinée provided JET A1 at Kissidougou airfield.

4.2.4 Standards, Quality and Testing

There are national standards regulating the quality in the country. Currently, there are two

companies authorized to test the fuel; Société Générale de Guinée (SGS) tests petrol and

diesel while Veritas Guinée tests JET A1.

4.3 3.2 Guinea Transporters

The commercial transport in Guinea can be divided to 4 categories. At the top, there are the

companies that transport primarily for the account of mining companies and oil distribution

companies, which require top quality service and reliability. Then come the SME transporters

who either have a direct contract with a freight forwarding company or are sub-contracted by

larger firms in the first category. These companies are managed in a good manner and offer

above average quality of service. These SMEs are still confronted with the practices of third

and fourth category of carriers in the market which disrupt the price level and the overloading.

The third category is that of carriers with low management capacity, have recourse to the

transporters associations or unions that monopolize the market share and offer cargo to their

members. This is especially the case at the Port of Conakry and in different public markets. The

rates charged are not negotiable; a commission is retained and the share collected by the

carrier cover barely for the transportation costs. This encourages the practice of overloading

since there aren’t any weighing bridge in the country. At the bottom of the scale are those

called commonly "the banabanas" or marginal carriers that do not accept the affiliation and the

system set up by the trade union and l’Union des Transporteurs Routiers de Guinée (UNTRG)

and prefer to use less expensive brokers. These carriers are poorly paid, use equipment in very

poor condition and offer poor service. The last two categories compose more than 60% of the

total trucking capacity in the country.

l’Union des Transporteurs Routiers de Guinée or (UNTRG) is the main transport union in the

country.

The number of trucks in the country is sufficient for the local market. It is important to note that

some transporters might not accept to operate on certain routes during the rainy season.

4.4 3.3 Guinea Manual Labor Costs

Guinea's Labor Code permits all workers (except military and paramilitary) to create and

participate in labor organizations. The General Workers Union of Guinea (UGTG) and the Free

Union of Teachers and Researchers of Guinea (SLECG) have emerged since the code ended

the previously existing trade union monopoly system. However, the National Confederation of

Guinean Workers (CNTG) remains the largest labor organization. Collective bargaining is

protected by law. Salaried workers, including public sector civilian employees, have the right to

strike, provided that they have given 10 days' notice of an intent to strike and that they are not

engaged in an essential service. About 5% of the workforce is unionized.

The minimum working age is 16, and is enforced for large firms working in the formal economy.

However, most children work, either in the informal economy or in agriculture. The workweek is

technically 48 hours, but most people work longer hours. The labor code has provisions for a

minimum wage but the government has yet to establish one, and most workers do not earn a

living wage.

Type of Labour Local Currency US-$ Year / month

Daily general worker (semi-skilled) 60,000 GNF 7.5 $2,700 / $225

4.5 3.4 Guinea Telecommunications

The ARPT (Authorité de Régulation des Postes et Télécommunications) is a legal entity of

public law, independent, endowed with financial and managerial autonomy, governed by the

special status defined by the L018 law in September 2005 on telecommunications and placed

under the supervision of the Minister in charge of telecommunication. ARPT ensures

compliance with the provisions of the law on the general regulation of telecommunications and

its implementing regulations. It shall take the necessary measures to ensure the service

continuity and protect the users. There are four major mobile phone providers in the country

offering competitive service in quality and price. The sim cards are obtained under presentation

of an identity card and the number is registered accordingly.

4.5.2 Existing Humanitarian Telecoms Systems

There is a common radio room managed by UNDSS. All radio bases (HF/VHF) are located at

UNDSS (Maison Commune) where UNDP, UNFPA, UNAIDS are located. The repeaters are

located at Kakourima mountain located at 40 km from Conakry Town Centre. This is an inter-

agency radio room; all UN agencies use the same frequencies. For the rest of connectivity and

telecoms systems such as VSAT, each agency depends on its own.

4.6 3.5 Guinea Food and Additional Suppliers

It is possible to procure on the local market depending on the commodity itself. The local

market is able to meet demand and to scale up if required. During the Ebola Response there

was a huge demand for plastic tools such as plastic buckets and similar equipment used as

preventive measures for hand washing. The local manufacturer faced some challenges at the

start but was able to accommodate the multiple demands from different UN agencies and

NGOs.

Although Guinea has mining resources, it is estimated that 60% of the Guinean population is

engaged in agricultural production. The growing of corn, cassava, peanuts, rice, fonio, cola,

citrus, tropical fruits and coffee assure 24% of GDP despite a lower growth rate in 2001 (0,1%).

The arable land is estimated at 7.5 million ha with a cultivated area of 3,000,000 ha.

Key exports and imports are:

Exports:

$1.31 billion (2013 est.); $1.348 billion (2012 est.)

Commodities: bauxite, alumina, gold, diamonds, coffee, fish, agricultural products

For contact information for food and additional suppliers, please see the following link: 4.11

Guinea Producers, Wholesalers, Retailers List (see page 211)

4.7 3.6 Guinea Additional Service Providers

The number of qualified suppliers is limited in the country therefore it is important to assess the

market and the supply to avoid any gaps in programme support needs.

For information on Guinea Additional Service Providers contact details, please see the

following link: 4.9 Guinea Additional Service Provision Contact List (see page 203)

4.7.1 Accommodation

Accommodation/housing is available in country. In Conakry, the rent can be expensive

especially if the place meets the minimum security requirements. Rents usually starts from US

$900 / month for foreigners. It is important to note that finding good accommodations or

housing inside the country might be difficult and renters often should expect to do some

rehabilitation before moving in. The majority of owners demand to be paid a year in advance or

at least 6 months plus the deposit of a caution of two months rent.

4.7.2 Financial Service Providers

There is a limited number of banks in Guinea; however, it is possible to find the following

services: commercial and investment banking services, foreign exchange services, insurance

and bank cards. Money transfer is possible either by the main international companies like

Western Union or MoneyGram or by local companies which are in the capital.

ECOBANK

Ecobank Guinea (EGN) is supervised and regulated by the Central Bank of the Republic of

Guinea (BCRG). EGN has 18 branches and 207 employees. The return on equity (ROE) was

20.6% in 2012 and has remained steady at around 30 per cent over the past two years. The

4.7.3 Freight Forwarding Agents

There are a few reliable freight forwarding agents in Guinea Conakry. The main agents are

based in the Cité de Chemins de fer. The major freight forwarders are Ama Africa, Bolloré

Africa, Transco and TTM which is specialized in exemption formalities. The aforementioned

companies offer good service and have the capacity to pre-finance their activities.

4.7.4 Handling Equipment Rentals

Freight handling equipment is available for rent or lease such as forklifts and other materials.

The pallets available are mainly not from good quality and are not conform to the European

standards. The price of a pallet can vary from US $4 to US $10.

4.7.5 Postal and Courier Services

The national post is undergoing a major renovation and revitalization. There are post offices in

the major cities and towns in the country. The major international express courier companies

are also present in Guinea and offer their services on national and international levels.

4.7.6 Publishing/Printing Service Providers

Publishing and printing service providers are limited in Guinea but available and offer

acceptable service in quality and price.

4.7.7 Taxi Companies

Taxis are owned by individuals and there aren’t any taxi companies in the country. The taxis

are old cars, badly maintained and driven by unqualified drivers so it might be dangerous to

travel by taxi.

4.7.8 Vehicle Rental

There is a good number of companies offering vehicle rentals. These companies showed a

good capacity in providing sufficient vehicles during the Ebola crisis and were able to satisfy the

high demand on vehicles from the humanitarian organizations in a short period of time. The

vehicles are usually in good condition and accompanied by experienced drivers.

4.7.9 Electricity and Power

The power supplier in the country is the ‘Electricité de Guinée’ or EDG, The national grid covers

only some cities in the western coast; however, even in Conakry the electricity black out is

frequent and some neighborhoods do not receive electricity on a regular basis. The national

production is not sufficient and its shortage is one of the principal reasons for investors and

Guinea

Version 13 149

businesses closing down. In the regional capitals, electricity is provided through diesel power

plants only and the electricity is only available during the night and for a certain period of time,

generally between 20h00 and 24h00. Towns and villages are not provided with electricity. This

situation obliges individuals and companies to rely heavily on generators. A new hydroelectric

plant was inaugurated in July 2015 with total installed capacity of 240 MW but due to the poor

condition of the network, only 140 MW are being exploited.

4.7.10 Waste Management and Disposal Providers

The household waste management in the capital Conakry, estimated at more than 700 tons per

day according to official statistics, seems to have always been at the heart of the challenges

facing the governorate of Conakry. Long term appropriate solutions in cleaning up this

agglomeration with a population estimated at over two million people are slow.

A structure called the SPTD (public service waste transfer), attached to the governorship of

Conakry, is in charge of garbage collection in the various collection points listed in the city to

land them the discharge of the ‘Minière’,

Guinea

Version 13 150

Today, it's more than forty small and medium enterprises (SMEs) who are responsible for

garbage collection at the household level, against payment of a monthly fee of 15,000 or

20,000 Guinean francs per family. A rate which varies according to the zones. A state that by

lack of resources, these SMEs that depend on subsidies from some development partners are

struggling to function properly.

4.7.11 Waste Disposal - Non Hazardous

The waste disposal is normally either burnt at site or transported to one of the random landfills

in the area.

4.7.12 Waste Disposal - Hazardous

There are no restrictions regarding the disposal of used motor oil, fuel, electronics / computers,

and any other solid waste.

There are no procedures nor processes for disposing of waste water (black and grey water).
