Many inhabitants of rural areas … lack adequate and affordable access to transportation infrastructure and services.  Poor access to transport constrains economic and social development and contributes to poverty. Better transport services can stimulate economic activity and social improvement, leading to easier access and a virtuous circle that reduces poverty and improves the lives of poor rural residents.” (Improving Rural Mobility – World BankTe chnical Paper No. 525)
Sahel Automotive is based on the premise that a business is sustained and grows because it meets needs.  We are motivated to create a sustaining and growing business to provide  basic utility vehicles that transform the lives of some of the poorest people in the world.  We are adventurers that seek new frontiers. We go not as donors, but as partners seeking a mutually beneficial transaction.

Transformation through Transportation
tm
In market towns villagers can:

  • Sell their produce for local consumption or access truck transport on developed roads to larger urban centers.

  • Purchase factors of production (seed, fertilizer, pesticides, etc)

  • Access Educational & Healthcare Services: secondary schools, training centers, medical and dental clinics, medical supplies, transport to urban center facilities
But what if …

farmers had better access to markets, seeds and fertilizer for their crops?
… and rural children had more effective transportation to schools?
… and villages had greater access to medical supplies and services?

Things might be really different…
