Sankofa Capital Group �� Guinea-Bissau
We came back
to build.
A diversified investment group founded by Guineans of the diaspora, building the infrastructure of a modern Guinea-Bissau.
“Se wo were fi na wosankofa a yenkyi.”
It is not wrong to go back and fetch what you forgot.

Who We Are
Guinea-Bissau investing in itself.
Sankofa Capital Group is built on a simple truth: the most powerful investment in any nation comes from its own people. We are Guineans raised in Europe who came back, bringing international standards, global networks, and the kind of belonging that no outside investor can replicate.
We operate across manufacturing, hospitality, real estate, and strategic investment, building the infrastructure of a modern Guinea-Bissau while honouring its culture, ecology, and people.
