Palm oil production business opportunities in Nigeria and feasibility proposal for setting up a palm oil processing plant in Nigeria

Lately, a team of Henan Doing Machinery went to Nigeria, Africa for market research, especially the field of palm oil processing industry. We want to learn about the opportunities of Nigerian palm oil production business personally. Based on what we know, we will supply feasibility proposal for setting up a palm oil processing plant in Nigeria. Moreover, we also visited our clients in the country during the business trip.

Palm oil processing in Nigeria

The following are some important information that we learned from our clients, as well as the field survey feedback:

The opportunities of Nigerian palm oil production business:

1.High Demand for palm oil:

Nigeria presently is the fifth largest producers of oil palm accounting for about 1.5% of global output behind Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Colombia. The continued population growth industrialization and expansion has resulted to increased demand for palm oil (i.e the major product from oil palm). Nigeria domestic supply can only meet about 55% of the total demand. Hence, the deficits are met through importation.

2. The encouragement policy of the Nigerian Government:

1)Nigeria plans to invest 180 billion naira ($500 million) to increase its palm oil production from around 600,000 tons a year to 5 million tons a year by 2027.

2)The policy, which would double oil palm acreage from 3 million to 6 million hectares, aims to meet all of the country’s domestic palm oil demand by 2027.

3)Nigerian Government encouraged the construction of a palm oil mills in every continent of Nigeria.

3, New technology high oil yield palm oil processing machine has been accepted and recognized by Nigeria local people.

In Nigeria, The most widely used palm oil extraction methods is traditional palm oil manufacturing method, but it can't meet the market demand of palm oil.

The features of traditional palm oil manufacturing method:

1,Low oil production rate, a lot of the oil is still left in the palm cake;

2, Machine simple, manual operation,Serious staff waste;

3, What's more, the locals burn the palm nuts as fuel instead of extracting the palm kernel oil;

Traditional palm oil processing method in Nigeria can't meet the market demand of palm oil

In order to improve the palm oil yield, we'd better introduce the new type palm oil processing machine to Nigeria to meet the local consumption needs. With more and more palm oil mill plants were built, more and more people realized that new type palm oil processing technology is more efficient and reasonable. So they are very willing to buy high quality palm oil processing machines from other countries, such as China.
