Bridging the Sahel to the Sea

Burkina Faso sits at the crossroads of West Africa — a landlocked nation of 22 million people whose trade flows depend on efficient corridor logistics through Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, and Benin. Victor D. Dunn's Burkina Faso operations team manages the full freight chain from Atlantic seaports to Ouagadougou and beyond.

Our team handles every step: pre-shipment documentation, DGDDI customs brokerage at the border, BIVAC pre-export verification, bonded warehousing in Ouagadougou, and last-mile delivery across all 13 regions of the country.

As part of our 13-country African network, Burkina Faso shipments connect seamlessly to Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, and Mali — making it a natural hub for Sahelian trade and humanitarian logistics.
