Mário Lourenço, CEO of C. Woermann Angola - Angola, 50 years of independence, 50 years of progress and confidence

Fifty years of independence represent more than just a historical anniversary; they represent half a century of perseverance, hard work and the construction of a country that has learned to stand tall with dignity and vision. Angola celebrates not only the past that liberated it, but above all else the future that it is building every day with talent, courage and determination.
Over the course of these five decades, the country has been transformed. It has diversified its economy, established its infrastructure, invested in knowledge, and opened itself up to the world. It is a modern Angola, with ambition and capabilities, which inspires confidence and attracts solid partnerships. It is in this context that since 2005, C. Woermann Angola has been walking side by side with the country’s development.
Our mission has been clear: to supply reliable technical equipment and solutions that meet the demands of Angolan industry, contributing to the sustainable growth of our partners. We represent premium global brands, but our commitment is very much local. We are committed to training Angolan technicians, providing high-quality maintenance and repair services, and ensuring the swift and efficient supply of equipment that supports essential sectors, such as energy, agriculture, construction and transport.More than just selling products, our belief lies in creating value. Every generator installed, every machine in operation, every project completed is a step towards establishing a more autonomous Angola that is prepared for the challenges of the future. It is in this spirit of cooperation and reliability that C.Woermann Angola has established itself as a key partner, combining German precision with Angolan resilience.
As we celebrate 50 years of independence, we also celebrate the resourcefulness and capabilities of the Angolan people, the strength that builds, dreams and transforms. It is with pride and a sense of responsibility that we renew our commitment to Angola: to continue to invest, serve and believe.
The future of Angola is built on dependability, and that is precisely what C. Woermann Angola has been offering every day for two decades now.
