The equipment market in Guinea-Bissau

Guinea-Bissau is a small market where cashew farming dominates the economy and heavy equipment is used mainly for roads, port works and construction in Bissau.

There are few local dealers, so many buyers deal with distributors in Senegal or further afield.

  1. Ports

    Sea shipments need a cargo tracking certificate (CEE) issued before loading. Your freight forwarder normally arranges it.
