Business Description
Jeroen Elfers, Corporate Director Dairy Development and Milk Streams at FrieslandCampina, explains: “With this mobile dairy plant we help thousands of local Nigerian farmers by ensuring the sales of their milk and, consequently, their income. We are also creating jobs and provide the population with nutritious and affordable dairy products. ” The plant consists of five interlinked containers and was built by Scherjon Dairy Equipment and Onesto Construction in Surhuisterveen and Drachten (Netherlands) respectively. The five 40 ft containers will soon be shipped to Nigeria. As soon as the containers arrive at their destination, they will be interlinked, and the yoghurt production can be started. Milk from local dairy farmers is used for the yoghurt. With this mobile yoghurt plant, FrieslandCampina extends its processing capacity in Nigeria. With 200 million inhabitants, Nigeria is an important market to FrieslandCampina. FrieslandCampina does not only export dairy products and semi-finished products from the Netherlands, but it also produces dairy products using milk coming from local dairy farmers in the country itself. The processing capacity can rapidly be scaled up. We expect we will be able to put the plant into use in the first quarter of 2022 in Nigeria.
