Alert: Suspected commercial practices against SOMAPIS

Our company has received several reports of difficulties encountered by companies that have worked with SOMAPIS, which is run by the Gueye brothers (Abdoulaye and Thierno).

These reports mainly refer to significant delays in payment, and even unpaid bills, following the performance of services on behalf of this company in Mboro. The companies concerned report that they were approached to provide services, hire machinery or carry out projects, and then signed contracts which, in reality, were not honoured.

It is important to note that this information comes from direct testimonies and that we do not have, at this stage, legal evidence to confirm these allegations.

We therefore invite any professional who has had a similar experience with SOMAPIS to contact us in order to gather more testimonies and compile a complete file.

What precautions should I take?

If you are considering working with SOMAPIS, we strongly recommend that you :

Demand solid financial guarantees: Ask for substantial deposits or to be paid in advance for services and clear and precise payment terms.

Ask your network: Don't hesitate to ask your professional contacts about their experience with this company.

Keep all evidence: Keep all documents relating to your dealings with SOMAPIS (contracts, invoices, e-mails, etc.).

In conclusion, although the information gathered to date raises questions about the commercial practices of SOMAPIS, it is essential to remain vigilant and take all necessary precautions to protect yourself.

We remind you that anyone who feels aggrieved by the actions of a company may refer the matter to the competent authorities (commercial court) and lodge a complaint, depending on the actions.
