A leading company in the Senegalese sanitation sector

DELTA SA provides impactful services that promote solid, inclusive and sustainable economic growth and improve the living conditions of the population.
« Considering Africa's urban growth rates (3-5%), sanitation issue is even more important in African capital cities development strategies. The feeling of urgency is all the more acute as benefits brought by an improvement of the access to sanitation can have an impact on all the dimensions of sustainable urban development, » explains the founder and CEO of the company, Miss Léna Tall.
A partnership with multiple dimensions between I&P and DELTA SA
I&P, through its fund I&P Afrique Entrepreneurs 2 (IPAE 2), has decided to support DELTA SA in order to strengthen its governance, its organizational and technical capacities, while accompanying the company in its regional expansion objectives. More generally, as an impact fund, IPAE 2 also strives to strengthen Delta's core mission of improving access to water and sanitation in urban and rural areas across the continent. This is a fundamental issue in terms of health, living conditions, and human dignity.
« We are proud to support DELTA SA in a new development phase. […] This partnership is also the occasion to promote female entrepreneurship in Senegal, as the promoter is the only woman to lead a large company in the sector, » underlines Marguerite Tall, I&P Investment Manager.
With this new investment, IPAE 2 continues the impact mission of I&P to promote the emergence of a new generation of responsible African entrepreneurs.
