Sanco's Story

SANCO is a Haitian-owned sanitation company. We have been in existence, in Haiti, since July 12, 2007. We are led by an executive team of three shareholders who together have a large amount of experience in their respective fields.

CEO Clifford Baron has been a businessman for more than 11 years and worked in the sanitation field in the United States for nearly 8 years. He received his Bachelors in Business Administration from The University of Tampa then successfully managed his own sanitation company for 11 years. He joined the RD Cleaning and Construction Team Inc. soon after that. In 2003, he returned to Haiti where he became active in GSCC, a nonprofit organization which helps support cancer patients. In 2007, he became the co-founder and CEO of SANCO enterprises.

 

  • Vice president Marguerite Baron has been a businesswoman for more than 18 years. She received her Bachelor in Business Management and Marketing from The University of Quisqueya, in Haiti. She also completed additional sanitation studies in the United States. She is Board Treasury for Healing Hands for Haiti, a nonprofit organization, which cares for the disabled in Haiti. A former, top level shareholder of Jedco Services, our principal competitor, she was a key decision maker in that organization. She is the co-founder and vice president of SANCO Enterprises.

  • Patrick Jean Leger, MBA, OCPAH, BIBC, DESS, received his Masters in Business Administration from HEC-MONTREAL, a prestigious business school. He has more than 7 years experience working in the financial sector.

Sructures

In our desire to facilitate tractability and command of our activities as well as reactivity, our company has been structured into operational divisions.

Branch services linked to activities such as trash collection, portable toilet rental, potable water delivery, septic tanks draining allocate their resources according to their particular human, technical and financial resources.

This organizational structure is also applied to the company’s administrational services.

Mission Statement

SANCO’s mission is to fully contribute to the protection of the environment and to offer an optimal level of sanitation, trash disposal and recycling services, to our users and clients.

Haiti is a developing country, which after the devastating earthquake of January 2010, is now a country under reconstruction. Because of this situation, the country is facing numerous practical and complex problems, foremost among them, a massive population of displaced persons and destroyed infrastructure.

The country is in a very precarious sanitary situation, which is further aggravated by traditions and customs that do not favor environmental protection. In that difficult context, SANCO tries to act as an environmental cushion through its multiple activities.

Limiting the environmental impact of production activities

Every commercial activity, whether industrial or service-based, produces solid waste, commonly called refuse. SANCO Enterprises collects this refuse in order to limit the ecological impact of these activities and insure that the refuse do not pollute the environment through stench, unsightly landscapes and ground pollution due to surface streaming and infiltration.

 As designated by Haitian law, the collected waste is then trucked to Truitier, a rural section of Varreux, in the commune of Cité Soleil.

Our fundamental values to promote responsibility

As a company working in close proximity with our customers, and having played a pioneering role in this field, SANCO wishes to contribute to the evolution of practices in its areas of expertise through close collaboration with the Haitian authorities, and local communities.

Without direct participation of the affected populations, no protection or long term management of resources is possible. This is why SANCO works tirelessly along with its clients, employees, and those who benefit from our services to integrate the preservation of the environment into their daily lives.

In the meantime, legal measures must be taken against unauthorized refuse dumping, mismanagement of waste water and discarded oils into the fragile and abused Haitian environment. Everyone must adopt his or her daily life to the ecological norms best suited to protect his future. 

Sanitation: A critical problem in Haiti

HAITI is facing enormous challenges in the fields of collection and treatment of refuse and reclamation of waste water, which are usually services managed by public entities. A lack of structural infrastructure, financial resources, lackluster investment, uneasy implementation of the decentralization policy, all contribute to an extremely low rate of sanitation services.

The development of these services, fundamental pillars of public health and ecological balance, is still in the planning phase in a country where more than two third of a population of 10 million has no access to basic sanitation services. While waiting for the reinforcement of the public/private partnership on the problem of solid and liquid refuse, a policy strongly recommended by IDB, the Inter-American Development Bank, SANCO offers a broad range of services to local authorities and collectives, international organizations, businesses and individuals who need them.

SANCO Enterprises S.A offers 5 principal products and services

 1) Cesspool or septic tank draining

 2) Portable toilet rentals

 3) Collecting and refuses collection

 4) Non-potable water delivery

 5) Pest control services.
