We were pleased to host the team from Sunbethgc at our facility. As key players in the agro-commodity sector, their visit highlights the growing importance of collaboration between agriculture and manufacturing. Discussions during the visit focused on how both sectors can work more closely to improve productivity, efficiency, and value creation. Strong partnerships like this are essential for building a more connected and resilient supply chain. At Coleman, we are proud to provide the infrastructure that powers processing hubs across Nigeria. These hubs are critical to transforming raw agricultural products into export-ready goods, helping to boost the country’s non-oil exports and economic diversification. We remain committed to supporting industries that drive sustainable growth, strengthen local capacity, and contribute to Nigeria’s long-term development.
