The Confédération Africaine de Football (CAF) and Africa Global Logistics (AGL) have strengthened their collaboration, with AGL named the Official Logistics Partner for Africa’s premier football showcases — the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) Morocco 2025 and the TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Morocco 2026.
The landmark agreement was sealed in Johannesburg on Wednesday, 23 April 2025, with CAF President, Dr. Patrice Motsepe, and AGL President, Philippe Labonne, committing to a shared vision of excellence, innovation, and sustainable impact across the continent.
This renewed alliance builds on the success of their initial collaboration during the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Côte d’Ivoire 2023, where AGL’s expertise proved pivotal to the tournament’s smooth operation. Now, with their sights set on Morocco, the partnership promises to set new benchmarks, not only in logistics but also in how football can accelerate Africa’s economic and social development.
Dr. Patrice Motsepe expressed CAF’s enthusiasm, stating:
“CAF is proud to once again join forces with AGL, a trusted leader in logistics. Our collaboration reflects a powerful commitment to growing football for men and women in Africa. AFCON is not just a sporting event; it’s a global spectacle, attracting over 1.5 billion viewers across 178 countries. Through our partnership with AGL, we also aim to drive socio-economic transformation in communities across the continent.”
Echoing this sentiment, Philippe Labonne, President of AGL, said:
“We are honoured to extend our partnership with CAF. Football unites millions of Africans, and through our logistics support, we aim to enhance not only the tournaments but also to contribute meaningfully to Africa’s development. Our commitment goes beyond moving goods; it’s about moving Africa forward — promoting local content, empowering women, and uplifting communities through the beautiful game.”
Beyond the Stadiums: A Catalyst for Development
This partnership transcends football tournaments. It embodies a deeper purpose — leveraging the continent’s most beloved sport to catalyze sustainable development.
With its robust logistics network covering 47 African countries, AGL brings more than operational efficiency; it brings the promise of impact. From creating jobs to boosting local businesses, the logistics giant’s involvement is set to leave a legacy far beyond the final whistle.
The TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2025, Africa’s most-watched sporting event, will tap into AGL’s advanced, sustainable logistics solutions to deliver a seamless experience for players, fans, and stakeholders alike. The event is poised to generate economic activity across sectors — from transport and infrastructure to tourism and services — reinforcing football’s role as a true engine of growth.
Empowering Women’s Football: A New Era
Significantly, AGL’s role as the Official Logistics Partner for the TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2026 highlights a strong commitment to gender equality. By supporting WAFCON, AGL reinforces the message that women’s football deserves the same spotlight, investment, and celebration as the men’s game.
