El Brahim Bekaye (Ebb) Joins Equitypilot To Scale Poultry Production In Nouakchott
Nouakchott, Mauritania & Dubai, UAE — January 28, 2026
Mauritania Imports Tens Of Thousands Of Tonnes Of Poultry Each Year While Urban Demand In Nouakchott Grows Rapidly. Local Consumption Patterns Favor Fresh, Quickly Prepared Poultry, And Public Policy (Plan National De Développement D’élevage) Targets Major Reductions In Imports By Increasing Domestic Production. El Brahim Bekaye (Ebb)’S Project Addresses This Gap With A Production Model Designed To Supply 5,000 Live Broilers Per Week To Nouakchott And Neighboring Regions.
What The Startup Delivers?
El Brahim Bekaye, Led By Entrepreneur Brahim Bekaye Sakera, Operates A 1.65 Ha Farm At Pk17 (Route De Rosso) And Proposes A Seven-Building Rotational System To Sustain Continuous Weekly Deliveries Of ~5,000 Birds (Targeting ~20,000 Birds/Month). The Plan Includes Solar Power, Refrigerated-Capable Logistics, Trained Staff, And Standardized Biosecurity And Vaccination Protocols To Deliver Consistent, Locally Grown Broilers To Market Points, Grillers, Hotels And Retailers.
Why Now?
Consumer Demand, Rising Urbanization, And National Objectives To Cut Poultry Imports Create A Favorable Window For Scaling Domestic Producers. Ebb’s Model Targets Operational Stability (6-Week Grow-Out Cycles + 1-Week Sanitary Turnover), Lower Unit Costs Through Volume Feed Purchasing, And Energy Resilience Via Photovoltaic Integration Addressing Both Supply Reliability And Unit Economics.
Program Plan (First 30–60 Days)
Under Equitypilot, Fastercapital Will Help Ebb Refine Execution Milestones And Immediate Operational Planning: Finalize Supplier Contracts For Day-Old Chicks And Feed, Optimize The Seven-Barn Rotation Schedule, Complete Procurement For Transport Caisses And One Logistics Vehicle, And Implement The First Training Sessions On Biosecurity And Farm Management. No Funding Is Guaranteed By The Program; Equitypilot’s Role Focuses On Execution Guidance, Investor Readiness, And Ecosystem Introductions.
