About Company

We are primarily an oil seed processing plant and a grain mill, with over 30 years of experience in integrated food processing and production. Through processes of extrusion, expelling, milling and refining we produce a range of value added products derived from soya, maize and groundnuts. Our Oil seeds crushing capacity is estimated at 80 T.P.D. However we have been unable to achieve optimal capacity. The intrinsic nature of oilseeds milling requires warehousing of large quantities of oil seeds because of their seasonal availability. We are a for-profit company but we also have a goal in helping to alleviate hunger and malnutrition in our country. Our plant based protein food products cost a fifth of comparable animal based protein; they are also healthy and nutritious. For over 30 years we’ve provided a ready market to small scale farmers, at above market prices.
