In Libreville, Gabon, there is a multi-sector industrial park called the GSEZ - Gabon Special Economic Zone of Nkok, which covers 1,126 hectares and was ranked as the world's best special economic zone in the timber sector in 2020. The GSEZ helps to tackle deforestation and defend the forests that cover more than 85% of its territory by participating in the creation of green value chains to contribute to the country's development. This economic zone brings together 144 companies from 16 countries operating in 70 industrial sectors, including a wood processing cluster with 84 companies.
