Our mission to Combat Climate Change
We undertake projects to develop and implement nature-based solutions that contribute to reduction of greenhouse gases through carbon sequestration and emission reduction. Our operations are spread across Gabon, Togo, Benin and ROC. What’s more is that we are fast expanding into other countries within the region.
• Large-scale plantations - creation of large natural carbon sinks through planting and maintaining exotic and native tree species plantations;
• Manufacturing and distribution of Improved Cook Stoves (ICSs) aimed at reducing carbon footprint and improving the health and wellbeing of local communities;
• Providing plantation timber to wood-based industries -Addressing deforestation problem and conducting sustainable management of forests;
• Sustainable forestry activities,
• Energy Solutions through Green Plantation Charcoal Projects
• Large unutilised land areas facilitating implementation of conservation projects
• Climate and soil conditions enabling large scale plantation projects.
• The countries surrounding the Congo Basin present a unique opportunity, with vast amounts of degraded lands, poor savanah regions suitable for creating carbon sinks and exotic commercial plantations
• Nurseries Promoting local R and D
• Forest Species with defined end goals
• Proprietary technologic tools dedicated to forest monitoring and management
• Field research and academic partnerships
• Improved Cook Stoves Production Facilities and Testing
• Growing global demand for carbon credits, especially for high quality carbon credits generated from plantations
• Arise IIP Special Economic Zones in Africa provide a captive market for the sales of plantation wood and industrial plantation charcoal
• Carbon credit sales (high risk/high reward due to market immaturity)
• Sustainable forestry and harvesting (steady source of income)
• Transformation
• Multiple revenue streams
Sequoia Plantations develops and manages large-scale green plantations. Our initial facilities in Benin and the Republic of Congo are strategically located within Arise IIP industrial zones, providing access to robust infrastructure, fiscal incentives, and essential raw materials.
