On the acceptance of his company’s brand of locally produced rice brands, he said, ‘as per our brands, generally, people love Mama’s Pride because of its packaging, grain length and brightness.’

Adefeko said that his company’s impressive showing at the fair was possible because Olam Nigeria had made huge investments in Agriculture, particularly in local rice production. “We have a 19 billion naira 10,000 hectare farm and mechanized mill with a capacity to produce 36,000 metric tonnes of milled rice in Rukubi Nasarawa State and outgrower programme, which currently employs about 3,000 farmers.”
