Exhibition stand builder in Cotonou, Benin
Pascal Akoha's Cotonou bench serves the Palais des Congrès, the national fair calendar and a corporate scene that increasingly hosts regional launches.
The bench in Cotonou.
Cotonou is the newest bench in the network and deliberately built on the pattern of the older ones: a lead trained in Abidjan for a season, the standard sample board on the wall, and a first year spent almost entirely on 9–18 m² stands — the size class where a new bench earns its consistency before we route larger work to it.
Like every market we serve, Benin works on the split model: design and engineering stay in the Abidjan studio, fabrication and raise-day happen here, by a crew that lives here. What crosses the border is a drawing pack — never a truck. The finish standard is enforced with the shared sample board and a 22-photo raise-day audit reviewed against the drawings before your walk-through.
Pricing follows the network's flat logic: the 600 € incl. tax / m² baseline with a 1.06 country factor — from 636 € incl. tax per m² (≈ XOF 417,200 / m²). The factor covers exactly one thing: material logistics into the local market, and it appears as its own labelled line in the quote. The rate includes design, fabrication, raise and strike; venue services (power, rigging) and screen hardware (re-invoiced at cost +10%) are itemised separately — no hidden costs. Run your configuration in the 10-second estimate, or file a brief for a firm quote within 48 hours.
