US Tire Giant Firestone Leases 1 Million Acres In Liberia
In 1926, US tire giant Firestone leased 1 million acres of land in Liberia for 99 years at a price of six cents per acre. This transaction transformed the tropical rainforest, previously home to indigenous communities, into a site for industrial activity. The lease agreement was reportedly facilitated by a land lease contract. This land was previously a home for the Kpelle people. A United States-based tire company has leased one million acres of land in Liberia. This land, previously a habitat for the Minal people, is tropical rainforest. This tropical rainforest, previously home to the Gola people, has been leased for development. The purpose of the lease is reportedly for rubber cultivation, a key component in tire production. This land acquisition could impact local agriculture and employment. This land acquisition is expected to bolster the company's supply chain.
