Eric Mongérand died this Monday, October 14 following a long illness. It was his partner, Catherine Conconne, who made the sad announcement on social networks.
It is with immense sadness that I announce the death of my partner, following a long illness. Her children, her family, her friends join me in this painful moment,” she says.
After starting school at the Séminaire Collège de Sainte-Marie in Fort-de-France, Eric Mongérand continued his higher education in France, studying social sciences at Sciences Politique Grenoble.
Passionate about culture, he chose to pursue a career in the business world. For more than 20 years, he led the SAGETM (formerly Vedettes Madinina) and contributed to developing maritime transport in the Bay of Fort-de-France.
A strong personality
The entrepreneur, who did not have his tongue in his pocket, did not hesitate to point out that the private maritime transport company provided “public transport with private means”.
While the company was experiencing financial difficulties, he handed over management to Charles Conconne.
Retired from entrepreneurial life and the media world, he had been fighting illness for several months. A discreet observer of political life, he closely followed and supported the career of his partner, Catherine Conconne.
Born January 16, 1956, he died at the age of 68.
