EMM caters to a large base of public and private sector customers, in the areas of water and sanitation, and customer relations. The acquisition of EMM aligns with BUTEC Group's growth strategy in Africa and the Middle East by combining businesses that are essential for the preservation of the environment through the rationalization of water and energy resources. It follows the most recent acquisition by BUTEC Group of “Energy Services” businesses of ENGIE Group in Africa, which is also the operator of a proactive energy leak detection and repair project in Lebanon on a network serving nearly 2 million consumers. Since its establishment in 1964, the BUTEC Group has been a regional leader, notably in the environment, energy, oil & gas and industrial construction sectors in the Middle East and North Africa, deploying more than 7,000 employees in about ten countries, with a track record of major projects.
