•In a significant development for Nigeria's agricultural sector, Johnvents, a leading agribusiness and manufacturing firm, has secured a $40.5 million loan from the UK's Development Finance Institute (DFI) to expand its cocoa processing capacity. This strategic partnership is expected to have a profound impact on the country's economy, farmers, and global competitiveness.

•Enhancing Cocoa Processing Capacity

The loan will enable Johnvents to more than double its cocoa processing capacity to 30,000 metric tons annually, making it a major player in the global cocoa market. This increased capacity will not only boost the company's exports but also create economic opportunities for local farmers, who are the backbone of Nigeria's cocoa industry.

•Supporting Smallholder Farmers


A key aspect of this partnership is Johnvents' commitment to sourcing the majority of its raw cocoa beans from local farmer cooperatives. This approach will directly support smallholder farmers, who often face significant challenges in accessing markets and securing fair prices for their produce. By partnering with these farmers, Johnvents is helping to improve their livelihoods and contribute to the overall development of Nigeria's agricultural sector.

•Driving Sustainable Growth

The loan deal is also aligned with Johnvents' ambitious goal to achieve 100% traceable cocoa, with at least 90% certified, by 2027. This commitment to sustainability and transparency will not only enhance the company's reputation but also contribute to the growth of Nigeria's agricultural sector. By promoting sustainable practices and supporting smallholder farmers, Johnvents is helping to build a more resilient and competitive industry.

•A Win-Win Partnership



The partnership between Johnvents and the UK's DFI is a win-win for both parties. For Johnvents, the loan will enable the company to achieve its growth ambitions and contribute to Nigeria's economic development. For the UK, the partnership will help to strengthen supply chains, promote sustainable investments, and increase trade volumes between the two countries.

•Conclusion

The $40.5 million loan deal between Johnvents and the UK's DFI is a significant milestone for Nigeria's agricultural sector. By supporting smallholder farmers, promoting sustainable practices, and enhancing cocoa processing capacity, this partnership has the potential to drive economic growth, improve livelihoods, and increase Nigeria's global competitiveness. As Johnvents continues to grow and expand its operations, it is poised to play a leading role in shaping the future of Nigeria's agricultural sector.
