SENAR (Senegal Groundnut) is a Senegalese family SME located in Dakar created in 1982 by Mrs. Lydie Sagbo, specializing in the processing and marketing of groundnuts. SENAR is the first Senegalese company to market peanuts in supermarkets in Dakar.

In 1987, Lydie Sagbo expanded her offer by offering cashews and corn (popcorn) under the name of LYSA delights (in reference to Lysa Sagbo).

In 2015, Sylvie Sagbo Gommard, her daughter, took over the management of the family business and in 2017 signed a partnership with the impact investment fund TERANGA CAPITAL to support SENAR in its growth trajectory. This gave birth, the same year, to LYSA & CO, a new company bearing the brand SENAR les délices de Lysa.

This partnership will enable the upgrade of the production tool with the construction of a new processing unit.

In 36 years of existence, the family business of yesteryear is on the way to becoming a success story in the field of agribusiness with distinctions such as the encouragement prize at the SIA 2018 (Salon International de l'Agriculture in Paris ) and respect for values ​​such as the label “made in Senegal”, “100% natural” “hand made”.
