HISTORICAL

1991 to 1993

1st phase: Installation of production units

This phase corresponds to the implementation of start-up investments. This relatively long period, during which the accent was placed on security, is linked on the one hand to the relative importance of the investments and on the other hand to the difficulty of finding a financial partner agreeing to engage in this sector considered risky due to the size of the competitor

1993 to 1994

2nd phase from 1993 to 1994: Start of activities

This is the start-up phase of production activities marked by market penetration difficulties, insufficient logistical resources (vehicles) and packaging (bottles).

1995 to 1996

3rd phase of: Growth and maturity of production

This phase was marked by the reinforcement of the management staff with the recruitment of a Marketing and Development Director, an Administrative and Financial Director and an Electromechanical Engineer.

At the same time, the sales team was strengthened and the company's activities diversified with the marketing of other industrial gases (nitrogen, argon, CO2), refrigerant gases (R11, R12, R22, R134, R404, R502, ammonia ) special gases (hydrogen, helium), installation of gas power plants (Medical & Industrial). A major bottle acquisition program was carried out during this phase on a self-financing basis. This program has made it possible to gradually stabilize production, to avoid repetitive shutdowns recorded previously and consequently to significantly reduce the unit cost price of the products manufactured.

1997 to 2000

4th phase of: Strengthening and consolidation of activities

The rapid growth recorded during the previous phase required significant efforts to restructure and modernize management tools to bring them into line with the resulting needs.

Indeed, SAHEL-GAZ continued in 1997 a program of reinforcement of the park bottle. The company's organizational chart has also been reorganized with the recruitment of a general secretary and an internal controller. Between 1997 and 1998, SAHEL-GAZ made a great effort. Accounting and invoicing, previously on a single workstation, have been connected to the network. The control of the Reception of customer orders - Delivery - Invoicing - Collection cycle has been reinforced. Commercial and accounting management software has been developed and gradually adapted to the company's information needs.

2001 to 2009

5th Phase: Modernization and Upgrading

During this period, Sahel Gaz embarked on a vast program to modernize and strengthen its production tool, supported for 2 years by an upgrading program comprising a major organizational component which resulted in ISO certification in 2009. 9001 version 2000. During this period, the organizational chart was reorganized as well as the internal organization with the creation of an IT department, a Logistics department and an Industrial Supplies Department. Production has been secured with the installation of 02 new compressors giving Sahel Gaz an oxygen production capacity of 150m3/hour. The bottle park has been reinforced offering greater storage capacity.
