Olam Agri has broken ground on a new Integrated Feed Mill in Delta State, marking a significant deepening of its investment in Nigeria’s agricultural sector. The new facility is designed to bolster the supply chain for animal feed, a critical component of the country’s livestock and aquaculture industries.
The mill is strategically located to serve customers across Nigeria's South-South and South-East regions. By positioning production closer to end-users, the company aims to streamline logistics and improve access to essential inputs for local producers.
The primary objective of the new facility is to address the growing demand for quality animal feed. Olam Agri intends to bring production directly to poultry farmers, aquaculture operators, livestock producers, and other customers who rely on consistent and high-standard feed supplies.
This expansion underscores Olam Agri’s continued commitment to supporting the agrifood value chain in West Africa. By investing in local manufacturing capacity, the company seeks to enhance the efficiency and reliability of feed distribution in key economic zones of Nigeria.
The groundbreaking ceremony highlights the broader trend of multinational agribusinesses expanding their physical infrastructure within Nigeria to meet the rising needs of the domestic market. The facility is expected to play a pivotal role in supporting the growth of the poultry and livestock sectors in the region.
