First Aquagrico Farms is attempting to construct the biggest farmer’s market in Nigeria. The firm’s managing director, Kolapo Joshua Talabi, revealed the plans and said this will be achieved by partnering with the Bank of Agriculture.
The firm aims to establish an all-in-one agricultural market-hub which will include collecting, redistributing, storing, processing and exporting of agro-products. This in return will boost large-scale commercial agriculture in Africa. Mr. Talabi, stated that the market would promote agricultural value chain operations and capacity development to encourage agriculture growth in Nigeria.
