Case Studies
Sajjan Foods
Sajjan Foods is a Dubai based food processor and trading company focused on sourcing raw materials across Africa. Due to the COVID-19 lockdown and lots of business shifting their supply chain away from China and India, Sajjan Foods decided to reach out for alternative suppliers with cost-effective benefits.
Agricorp (Nigeria) through its deep farmer cooperative structure sourced for 120MT Grade A Dried Split Ginger and exported same to Dubai and South Africa during the lockdown. Both companies are signing-off on a long term agreement that would see Agricorp procure 2,400MT of ginger during the harvest season and then schedule deliveries to Dubai and South Africa for FY2021. This will reduce cost for Sajjan Foods by 15% and ensure year-round supplies.
Spicegro (Pty) Limited SA
Spicegro is a leading supplier of spices, herbs and food ingredients in South Africa. The Comoany just started up operations and a lot of customers have specifically requested for Nigerian ginger powder due to its strong natural aroma.
Agricorp (Nigeria) through its deep farmer cooperative structure and partnership with 5 major farmer cooperatives within the producing region, has processed a trial order of 12MT of dried split ginger to Cape Town.
Both companies are signing-off on a long term agreement that would see Agricorp procure 648MT of ginger during the harvest season and then schedule deliveries to South Africa for FY2021. This will reduce cost for Spicegro SA by 15% and ensure year-round supplies.
