Indian infrastructure firm GHV Infra Projects has received a letter of intent for a EUR 630 million greenfield tire manufacturing facility in Cameroon. The project, located in Douala, will produce 7.6 million tires annually, marking a significant expansion of industrial capacity in the central African region.
According to official disclosures, GHV Infra Projects has been awarded a letter of intent for the development of a greenfield tire manufacturing facility in Cameroon. The contract, valued at EUR 630 million (approximately INR 70 billion), covers engineering, procurement, and construction on a lump sum turnkey basis. Located in Bekoko, Douala, the plant is designed to achieve an annual output of 7.6 million tires, with a projected completion timeline of 36 months following the official commencement notice. GHV Infra Projects is an India-based infrastructure development firm specializing in large-scale engineering and construction projects across the transportation and industrial sectors.
This development represents a major step in the industrialization of Cameroon’s Littoral Region. By establishing a high-capacity domestic production site, the initiative aims to strengthen regional supply chains and reduce the heavy reliance on imported rubber products. For the central African automotive sector, the plant will serve as a critical hub, leveraging the logistical advantages of Douala to support regional trade.
For global investors and engineering firms, this agreement underscores the growing footprint of Indian EPC players in high-value international markets. The 7.6 million-unit capacity signals a strategic shift toward localized manufacturing in emerging economies, providing long-term opportunities for stakeholders in the industrial equipment and raw material sectors. Successful execution of this project is expected to enhance Cameroon's industrial profile and bolster the international competitiveness of its manufacturing base.
