Women’s leadership training at GDIZ
As part of the International Women’s rights Day, GDIZ organised a training session on women’s leadership. Led by Mrs. Béatrice Adélaïde de Beaubrun, the session focused on the theme: ‘Women in leadership – breaking barriers, seizing opportunities.’
With extensive and diverse experience in female leadership, Mrs. de Beaubrun inspired participants with her bold career path, spanning media, politics, entrepreneurship, and large-scale communication strategy management.
The training brought together employees from the Investment and Industry Promotion Company (SIPI-BENIN S.A.) and GDIZ Single Window Clearance (SWC). It provided a valuable platform for discussions on women’s roles in decision-making spheres and the key levers to overcome professional barriers.
Through this initiative, GDIZ reaffirms its commitment to build a future where every woman has a rightful place, regardless of the industry.
Blood donation at GDIZ
Recognising the importance of blood donation, GDIZ regularly organises blood drives within the Zone. The latest donation campaign took place from March 5 to March 20, 2025, across several factories within the Zone, including:
- Integrated textile units: BTex and BTC;
- Garment production units;
- Soybean processing factories: Benin AgriBusiness and Benin Organics.
Thanks to this mobilisation, over 500 blood bags were collected, contributing to saving lives. This initiative once again demonstrates GDIZ’s strong commitment to the well-being of communities.
