Turkish development corporations Limak and Summa – which accomplished the development work of the International Blaise-Diagne (AIBD) Airport positioned in Dakar – marked the fifth anniversary of its operations.
In an award ceremony held on the Phare des Mamelles, attended by Türkiye’s Ambassador to Dakar Ahmet Kavas, attendees celebrated the success of the airport, which employs 1,500 individuals.
LAS’s Director-General Aşkın Demir advised the viewers that the airport, which is among the greatest examples of Türkiye-Senegal cooperation, has greater objectives within the subsequent yr as a way to meet the rising demand.
In 2016, Limak and Summa collectively received a “build-operate-transfer” tender to finish the development work and function the International Blaise-Diagne (AIBD).
The operation of the airport can be shared by Limak and Summa for the subsequent 25 years earlier than the Senegalese state takes full possession.
