In the packed aisles of the Abdou Diouf International Conference Center, about 30 km from Dakar, Senegal's capital, Chinese exhibitors are no longer relying on catalogue sales alone.

At the 11th International Exhibition for Construction and Machinery and the 5th International Electricity, Energy and Renewable Energy Exhibition, both held from Thursday to Saturday, many companies are signaling a push for deeper integration into West Africa's industrial landscape.
