Olam Agri plans about $400 million of new investment in African food processing
Agricultural commodities trader Olam Agri plans to invest about $400 million in Africa through 2028, in countries including Nigeria and Côte d'Ivoire. The spending covers poultry and fish feed mills, grain processing and wheat milling, as African diets shift towards more processed food and protein.
Why it matters
Feed and milling capacity on this scale changes the market for local grain growers, poultry and fish farmers, and the suppliers who serve them.
