Freetown, Sierra Leone — As Sierra Leone’s private sector continues to evolve, women are playing an increasingly important role in business leadership, entrepreneurship and enterprise development. Among the women occupying leadership positions within the country’s business community is Mrs. Mariama Lakkoh, Chief Executive Officer of Taberah Investment Company Limited.
Based in Freetown, Taberah Investment Company Limited operates within Sierra Leone’s commercial and creative-services environment, providing services to individuals, businesses, organisations and institutions. Its areas of operation include printing, branding, apparel, signage, graphic design and related services.
As Chief Executive Officer, Mrs. Lakkoh provides executive leadership and direction to the company, overseeing its operations and contributing to its continued growth and development. Her leadership represents the important role women continue to play in shaping Sierra Leone’s private sector.
A Woman in Business Leadership
Leadership in business extends beyond holding an executive title. It involves responsibility for organisational direction, professional relationships, people, service delivery and the long-term development of an enterprise.
Through her leadership of Taberah Investment Company Limited, Mrs. Lakkoh represents a growing generation of women taking up executive responsibilities within Sierra Leone’s business community.
Her role also reflects the broader contribution of women to entrepreneurship and private-sector development. Across Sierra Leone, women are increasingly building businesses, managing institutions, creating employment opportunities and participating in economic activity.
Taberah Investment Company Limited
Taberah Investment Company Limited has established its presence in Freetown as a provider of commercial and creative services.
In an increasingly competitive business environment, professional branding, printing, apparel, signage, graphic design and promotional services have become important tools for businesses, institutions, organisations and individuals seeking to communicate their identities effectively.
The company operates within this intersection of business and creativity, serving clients whose communication and branding needs require practical and professional solutions.
Under Mrs. Lakkoh’s executive leadership, Taberah Investment Company Limited continues to participate in this evolving sector of Sierra Leone’s private economy.
Recognising Women in Enterprise
Mrs. Lakkoh’s leadership also forms part of the wider story of women’s participation in Sierra Leone’s business and economic landscape.
Women in executive and entrepreneurial positions contribute to a more diverse private sector while creating pathways for other women to participate in business, professional development and leadership.
For women leading enterprises, the responsibility extends beyond daily business operations. It includes building sustainable organisations, maintaining professional standards, developing relationships with clients and partners, and responding to the changing needs of the marketplace.
The leadership journey of women such as Mrs. Lakkoh therefore contributes to the broader narrative of women’s enterprise and leadership in Sierra Leone.
