Fan Milk PLC has announced a strategic 5-year partnership agreement with Obasanjo Farms Nigeria Limited, aimed at advancing dairy farming expansion and promoting local sourcing of dairy raw materials in Nigeria.

According to the terms of the partnership agreement, Fan Milk Plc would off-take the fresh milk produced and would also provide training and technical capacity building for the personnel.

Also speaking was the project lead for Obasanjo Farms Nigeria Limited, Dr. Olusegun Ariyo, who stated that the partnership will enable both companies to take steps towards a more efficient and economically sustainable environment for dairy farming in Nigeria.

On his own, the Managing Director of Fan Milk Plc, Mr. Kayode Adebiyi,pointed out that the partnership is designed to leverage the strengths of both organizations to enhance local dairy production, reduce import dependency, and foster sustainable agricultural practices.
