JS47 Holdings operates across logistics, telecommunications, energy, commodities and agri-processing — bridging North American logistics discipline with African resource and agricultural opportunity.
JS47 Holdings is a diversified holding company operating across logistics, telecommunications, energy, commodities and agri-processing. Our footprint spans Western Canada, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Burkina Faso.
We bridge North American logistics discipline with African resource and agricultural opportunity — connecting the businesses in our portfolio so that raw materials, refined products, parts and freight all move through a single, coordinated group.
Sourcing, processing, transport and distribution are linked across the group — Virden moves what Legazia and Awa NEEMA trade, and Kirkella supplies the parts that keep fleets running.
We build durable infrastructure and trade links rather than chase short cycles — investing in terminals, plants, land and networks that compound value over decades.
We work through cooperatives, hire locally and source sustainably. Wherever we operate, we aim to be a partner in the community, not simply a supplier passing through.
Each company is a specialist in its sector — and each is deliberately linked into the group so that trade, transport and processing reinforce one another across Canada and Africa.
Burkina Faso · Democratic Republic of Congo
Leading services provider in the telecoms industry — installation, radio-network optimization, network design, and operations & maintenance — diversified into refined petroleum products and commodities trading. Anchored by a newly acquired 300-hectare hub in the commodity-rich southern DRC.
Abbotsford, British Columbia · Canada
Asset-based carrier serving Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley and Western Canada. LTL and FTL transportation, warehousing and cross-dock at the Abbotsford terminal, with cross-border lanes opening into the United States.
Ouagadougou · Burkina Faso
Shea butter plant sourcing raw shea nuts through women-led local cooperatives, refining in-house, and selling to international cosmetics and food-grade buyers. A fair-sourcing model that adds value close to the growers.
Kirkella, Manitoba · Canada
Automotive dismantling operation recovering parts and materials for resale and recycling, transitioning into vehicle and component assemblage as its next chapter — a circular model that keeps materials moving.
Terminals and warehouses in Western Canada; a processing plant in Ouagadougou; a 300-hectare commodities and petroleum hub in the resource-rich south of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
A family-owned, long-horizon enterprise building durable infrastructure and trade links — and taking care of the people and places our businesses depend on.
We operate as a partner in the communities we work in — from women-led shea cooperatives in Burkina Faso to local hiring in southern DRC and rural Manitoba. Long-term relationships, not one-off transactions.
Fair sourcing from cooperatives, responsible processing, circular parts recovery at Kirkella, FIBC reuse at Virden — sustainability is built into how each company earns its margin, not an afterthought.
We process, refine and assemble close to the source — adding value where the raw materials come from and creating skilled jobs in each region we operate.
