“Bois Nobles” project
- CARRIGRES (sandstone quarry in Kinshasa). Revenues for the 3rd quarter 2018 amount to EUR 0.4 million, an increase of 13% over the same period of last year. The operations still generate a slight profit.
- The operating recurring result for the 2nd year-half, is still forecasted to be of the same order of magnitude as the result of the first six months.
TEXAF, established in 1925, is the only Euronext-listed industrial, real-estate and agricultural investment company with all its activities and subsidiaries based in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The listing of the Congolese businesses on the stock exchange and the resulting obligations of good governance and transparency constitute a major asset for the group for the promotion of the formal sector in the DRC.
