African Farming Union
Shared-use milling, drying, cold chain, and packaging facilities located near farming clusters. Turn raw commodities into market-ready products worth 2-3x more — and eliminate post-harvest waste.
From raw harvest to certified, packaged product — our hubs handle every step so you can focus on farming.
Bring your raw produce to the nearest AFU processing hub. Our strategically located centres sit within 30 km of major farming clusters, minimising transport costs and spoilage.
Trained operators handle milling, drying, grading, and packaging to international standards. You choose your processing level — from cleaned raw commodity to retail-ready product.
Every batch undergoes quality testing. Products that meet HACCP, ISO 22000, or organic standards receive certification, unlocking premium domestic and export markets.
Processed products command 2-3x the price of raw commodities. AFU connects your value-added output directly to buyers through our offtake network.
Each AFU processing hub is equipped with industrial-grade facilities designed for African crops, climates, and market requirements.
State-of-the-art milling equipment for maize, wheat, rice, and sorghum. Produce flour, grits, and meal that meet commercial buyer specifications and retail packaging standards.
Reduce moisture content to safe storage levels with our solar-hybrid dryers. Extend shelf life from weeks to months while preserving nutritional value and minimising energy costs.
Solar-powered cold rooms and refrigerated logistics for perishables — fruits, vegetables, dairy, and fish. Maintain the cold chain from farm gate to final buyer.
Automated sorting, grading, and packaging lines. Products are labelled with traceability codes linking back to the originating farm, cooperative, and processing batch.
On-site testing laboratories for aflatoxin, moisture, and microbiological analysis. We support HACCP, ISO 22000, GlobalG.A.P., and organic certification pathways.
Processing by-products are converted into animal feed, compost, and biochar. Nothing goes to waste — our circular model generates additional revenue streams for cooperatives.
Stop selling raw commodities at farmgate prices. Our shared-use processing hubs turn your harvest into certified, packaged products that command premium prices.
