Patisen: brands it owns and its ownership tree

Patisen is a privately held company headquartered in Dakar, Senegal that owns 14 consumer brands across 2 categories.[1]

Patisen is a Senegalese food manufacturer founded in Dakar in 1981 and built on stock cubes and seasoning powders, the products West African cooking leans on daily. It describes itself as a leading African food business with around 3,000 staff, four industrial and logistics sites, and distribution across more than 23 African countries as well as France and Canada. Its fourteen brands are deliberately layered at different price points, so that several of them compete in the bouillon aisle at once. Teralys, the agri-food subsidiary of the Moroccan investment company Al Mada, bought a majority stake in July 2023; founder Youssef Omaïs remained a shareholder.
