Olivier Lassagne
CEO, Mocoh
LinkedInOlivier has been working in the energy trading and downstream business in Africa for over 25 years. With an extensive network and expert knowledge of the continent, his focus has been on developing and strengthening Mocoh’s partnerships and exploring new opportunities for growth. His career began with Elf in France before joining Total in various roles across Africa, including Vice President Strategy & Marketing for all conventional and renewable fuels. Olivier has been with Mocoh for the past 10 years and took over as CEO of Mocoh in January 2025. He holds a master’s degree from Toulouse Business School in France.
“In just over 25 years, Mocoh has grown from a small team into one of the world's fastest-growing mid-sized commodity traders, increasing volumes by over 35% in the last three years. Africa is in our DNA: we're a leading supplier of refined products into West and Central Africa, with a fast-growing presence in the East. That growth reflects our team: people who have grown with the business and bring real, on-the-ground expertise across the continent, more than a third of them based in Africa.”
