Olam Agri, a global leader in food and agriculture, is set to transform the pasta market in Ghana with the construction of a new state-of-the-art pasta production facility and the expansion of its wheat flour production capacity. <\/p>\n
The facility is planned in two phases, and when completed will have the volume capacity potential to meet the entire demand for pasta in Ghana. As the one and only pasta production facility in Ghana, it will bring the products closer to the Ghanaian consumer. Premium wheat will be sourced and milled for pasta production directly by Olam Agri for better quality control. <\/p>\n
Baibhav Biswas, Country Head of Olam Agri in Ghana, said: \u201cWith this facility, we will be able to bring high quality, highly nutritious, and affordable pasta products closer to our Ghanaian consumers than ever before. This speaks of our commitment to Ghana and our efforts to contribute positively to the economic development and food security in the country thanks to greater stability in the supply and affordability of pasta. We hope that this raises the bar for the entire industry. It is an exciting chapter for Ghana’s food landscape, and the future of pasta looks bright and delicious.\u201d<\/p>\n
Olam Agri has a 30-year track record in Ghana as a major provider of food and agriculture products. Over the years, the company has invested in high-quality infrastructure and competent human resources to ensure the production of quality products that meet local demands and international standards. <\/p>\n
