We are pleased to welcome you to the commissioning of the rehabilitated Edo State Fertilizer and Chemical Company Limited (ESFCCL), Auchi
The plant established over 14 yrs ago was abandoned, nearing full dilapidation. Previous FG Policies favored importation of Fertilizer.
However, the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative of Pres. @MBuhari launched in 2016 has made local fertilizer production viable & sustainable
The new Fertilizer Policy simply encouraged investors like us to identify and rehabilitate abandoned national treasures such as this plant.
It is the vision of HE @GovernorObaseki and @EdoStateGovt investor and Agribusiness-friendly policies that made this partnership a success.
The abandoned Fertilizer plant as we knew it is gone. What we have now is an upgraded, state-of-the-art facility.
This first phase has the capacity to blend over 60,000MT of NPK fertilizer and is configured for physical and compound fertilizer blending.
One of the few with such capabilities in Nigeria...
As the Factory operations gather momentum, we will create about 500 direct and indirect jobs, 95% of which will be for Edo State indigenes.
We are strongly committed to the administration’s vision of attaining food self-sufficiency and economic prosperity through agriculture.
And we have backed this commitment with action.
Right now, we are setting up a sesame cleaning plant in Maigatari, Jigawa, the largest soya oil mill in West Africa in Sagamu, Ogun...
...and the largest Sesame De-hulling Plant in West Africa in Ogba, Lagos State.
Our businesses focus on working closely with and supporting Nigerian Farmers, and most of our Factories are located in rural Nigeria.
We are fully aligned with the administration agenda of economic diversification through inclusive growth.
