Representations Offices are installed in the other countries of West Africa. In the action plan of our Organization it is planned the support for the self-employment promotion of discriminated social groups to arouse in them of big winners ambitions and the necessity of joining to begin income generative activities. It is for that purpose WSLA-NGO introduces this experimental project of building materials factories network installation indicated for the construction at reduced time and of any standing of residential, commercial and institutional low-cost buildings for the benefit of the men, women and young people in the unemployment and in particularly the very low-income housewives associations in Republic of Benin in West Africa. This to not only allow the beneficiaries to take care and to bring up their living standard and the ones of their families members and friends by self-employing but also to allow all their local communities of low and middle incomes to be able to offer themselves affordable housing built from the materials which will be produced and marketed in these factories. Besides the production, the transport and the distribution of building materials the project will also take care of the marketing and the transport of raw materials as well as the real estate construction using the chosen system of construction and its materials which will be produced by the factories network to be set up. 1.2- Location of this experimental project This experimental project will be realized in Republic of Benin and in its stage of development the network will extend in all other countries of West Africa. 1.3- Beneficiaries Group Description The very low-income housewives qualified to belong to the direct and indirect beneficiaries of the aforementioned experimental project are the ones having one or more children in responsibility and their family living conditions are made even more painful by the collateral effects created by: Spouse/father employment loss further to a bankruptcy of his employer;; Unfair dismissal of the spouse/father ; Premature death of the spouse/father ; Very low-income of all the two parents (mother and father). These very low-income housewives are be grouped together within Economic Interest Groups to be able to manage effectively and in a collective and democratic way activities and resources which will result from it and to be capable of taking care and of creating the conditions of their self-fulfillment and of contributing to that of the members of their families and of their close relations.. Page 4 sur 16 II/ JUSTIFICATION The reasons of the choice concerned this project explain on one hand by the implementation of the WSLANGO program which particularly joins in all the woman promotion actions and the support the girl in trouble stemming from discriminated social circles to take care for an improvement of their living conditions and on the other hand by the crisis of the real estate sector in sub-Saharan Africa for several years, and which is characterized by a fit of the price of the new and former housing, and especially by a real surge of the rents practiced by owners of private housing in particular in zones with strong economic attraction power and of population growth. 2-1- General Objective Construction materials like Bricks & Blocks, Roofing Tiles, Doors & Windows Frames, Staircases, Septic Tank which will be made and marketed are the ones of the system of fast real estate construction in low-cost and at reduced time, invented by Habitech International with whom the Founder & Secretary of WSLA-NGO, Mr. Jean de Dieu Claude MINAKODE signed partnership agreements since year 2007 for the promotion of said building materials. 2.2- Specifics Objectives 1- Create and run a company of building materials production from the first year of experimental project; 2- Allow the local communities of low and middle incomes to have easily access to affordable housing from the launch of the factory activities ; 3- Allow the beneficiaries to offer itself in turn affordable housing from the fifth year of the project ; 4- Reach the self-financing and begin the network development step in the term of the first five years of this experimental project ; 5- Create more than 70 jobs per a factory installation. 2.3- Project Setting-up Strategy 1- Setting-up of Habitech Building System materials factories ; 2- Training of the materials production unit team ; 3- Signature of marketing partnerships with existing real estate companies with the aim of the promotion of the technical, economic and social opportunities which offers to the African populations the use of Habitech Building System materials ; 4- Training of the partners to the technique of use of Habitech Building System materials ; 5- Production and marketing of materials ; 6- Constitution of reserve funds fed by restraints on the profits generated by the materials sales ; 7- Buying of lands for housing construction and its equipment for the benefit of the very low-income families’mothers by means of the said reserve funds ; 8- Starting of the network extending on the national and regional level in the term of the first five years of the experimental project. Page 5 sur 16 III/ PRODUCTS DESCRIPTION AND SALE PRICE POLICY Habitech Building System materials are: *Bricks & Blocks : Bricks (10cm x 10cm x 20cm) for 1 floor houses and the buildings up to 3 floors ; Bricks (10cm x 15cm x 30cm) for the buildings of more than 4 floors ; Blocks (20cmx20cmx40cm) for the buildings of more than 9 floors ; *Roofing tiles : Cheaper compared with most of the other material of roofs cover ; Light and resisting natural disasters ; Sustainable and allows to reduce the cost of buildings maintenance ; The roof has a better quality of heat insulation and with simple ventilation rooms are fresher during sunny days ; The roof has a better quality of sound insulation against the noises produced by the rain and the other impacts ; The technology is environment-friendly. No chemical additive is used. Materials production is a big consumer of local labour. It contributes to create jobs rather than to need big capital of investment in heavy equipments. *Doors & Windows Frames : Simultaneously taken up with the walls of buildings, they allow reducing the time of construction. *Staircases & Septic Tank. Habitech Building System materials production plant is a light industry and can be installed everywhere to the world on or near construction sites. Construction with these materials is faster, easier, stronger, and durable and has been proven to reduce construction costs by as much as 30% to 50% when compared to conventional construction systems. Materials are prefabricated modular interlocking concrete based elements that can easily be put in place without the need for heavy equipment. Materials are self-aligning and can be put in place by unskilled workers. Materials are produced using machines and moulds assembled into production facilities configured to the specific needs of construction projects to local markets. Typical production plant directly employs 27 persons and indirectly 50 persons. Habitech use the methods ASTM (American Standard Test Methods) to realize the tests in touch with the quality control of materials classify and standardize the materials. A typical production plant capacity is 1,400,000 bricks making per year and necessary quantities of other materials that can supply for building 350 units of 2 bedroom houses. The financial analysis of this experimental project will not take into account the incomes of sale of Roofing Tiles, Doors & Windows Frames, Staircases and Septic Tank produced also by the factory. Unit sale price of the bricks is considered at $0.4133 US according to the costs of exclusively local raw materials in our reference data. Page 6 sur 16 IV/ MARKET ANALYSIS The progress of the prices registered for several years in the countries of the West Africa results from the speculation practiced by most of the present operators on the real estate markets, seen the important imbalance between the supply and demand of housing. That engenders a considerable deficit in housing to fill gradually over the years. For illustration, and in governmental source of one of the countries of the region of West Africa, Ivory Coast, the deficit in housing is estimated for only period from 1998 till 2000, in more than 60,000 housing among which 30,000 for the only city of Abidjan, economic Capital of the aforementioned country. The annual demand in this country is 50,000 social and economic housing and it is on average 5,000 housing which are annually produced and offered on the real estate market of Ivory Coast by about forty real estate companies which count this country. The installation of such a manufacturing unit of building materials and the introduction of Habitech Building system is an opportunity in the resolution of the recurring problems of deficit in affordable housing. The prospects of this project are real estate companies with who will be signed partnerships for the promotion of the system and the materials. So, offices of architecture will be approached to advice Habitech Building System materials to their customers. V/ MARKETING AND TECHNICAL STRATEGIES AND MEANS TO PROVIDE 5.1- Marketing Strategic The commercial strategy will consist in negotiating several relations of marketing partnership. The new technologies of information and communication channels will be the support of the marketing advertising such as the phoning, the mailing as well as the participation in the shows of exhibition of real estate markets. The services of Sales Representative will be sought as well as the creation of a web site. The management of the project will be made through the creation of a limited liability company title deeds of which will be passed on to the beneficiaries in the term of the first five years the necessary delay to pay off the injected funds (to allow to self finance other factories). On the other hand the administration of this liability company will be confided to the beneficiaries from the year of starting-up of the experimental project but they will be supported by specialists of company management during the first five years.
