Machines that drive success

We have over 30 years of expertise in manufacturing high-quality maize mills tailored for African conditions. Our mills boast exceptional extraction rates, a crucial factor for milling entrepreneurs as it directly impacts profitability. Maize is a staple crop in sub-Saharan Africa, and provides sustenance to millions of people across the region. Due to Africa’s growing population and increasing urbanisation, the demand for maize products is on the rise – presenting a golden opportunity for entrepreneurs and investors to enter the maize milling industry on the African continent. Investing in a maize milling plant not only makes business sense, but also makes a vital contribution to food security and job creation in communities.
