Driven by an increase in demand from customers throughout the region for animal feed products, Cargill has completed a USD $12.5 million expansion of its premix facility in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. The expansion includes new equipment, technology and resources to increase the plant's efficiency and improve product quality. This investment demonstrates Cargill's commitment to an animal production market in sub-Saharan Africa that is experiencing significant growth.
The facility produces poultry, ruminant, swine and pet food vitamin and mineral premix and base mix products for animal producers marketed under the Provimi brand throughout sub-Saharan Africa.
