About

An industrial operator, not an intermediary

Sopixcon is a Senegalese industrial operator specialising in telecom services and the circular economy. Our approach comes down to three words: we diagnose, we propose, we deliver.

Our positioning: bringing telecom industrial expertise to African operators and manufacturers who lack it in-house — as a long-term partner, not a one-off service provider. We are committed to extending the life of your electronic equipment and recovering value from equipment that can no longer be used.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers

What is Sopixcon?

Sopixcon (SOPIXCON SAS) is a Senegalese industrial operator based in Dakar, founded by two industrial experts. The company works across three complementary areas: industrial services (testing, methods, supply chain), the collection and recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), and the refurbishment of electronic equipment at levels N1, N2 and N3. Sopixcon positions itself as a long-term industrial partner rather than a one-off service provider.

How do you recycle electronic waste (WEEE) in Senegal?

In Senegal, Sopixcon handles the entire WEEE recycling chain in four stages: on-site collection, sorting, data destruction, then packaging to export standards before recovery by certified partner smelters. The process complies with Senegalese regulations and the Basel Convention. To get started, simply describe your needs: Sopixcon replies within 48 hours.

Is the data on my equipment destroyed?

Yes, always. Sopixcon never accesses the content of storage media. Repairable equipment is reset to factory settings without its content being viewed; for equipment that cannot be repaired, the storage media is physically destroyed. No data is copied, extracted or kept. Full details are in our privacy policy.

How does a collaboration with Sopixcon work?

A collaboration with Sopixcon follows four steps: a one-hour discovery meeting, with no commitment; a qualifying on-site audit; a findings review with a costed commercial proposal; then the kick-off of the first project or first flow.
