Ferts, Seed & Grain (FSG) Zambia was established in 2010 and began operating locally in 2014. Our Zambian focus is on the blending, storage, import and trading of fertilizers, as well as value-added regional exports. Superfert Fertilizer is distributed across Zambia by Ferts, Seed & Grain (FSG), headquartered in Lusaka. Zambia is the most recent market addition for Superfert Fertilizer, and the foundations for solid growth in the country are in place. Superfert Fertilizer is retailed through various third-party retailers across the country. The product is currently available in seven of the ten provinces in Zambia, and we expect to have countrywide coverage within the year. FSG Zambia is a regular and reliable supplier of the main Government Fertilizer Input Support Program (FISP), as well as to the Zambian sugar industry. Our in-house agronomy team offer our larger customers hands-on technical support, ensuring that the blends they use help them to achieve the very best result possible. FSG works with IPF to deliver a crop monitoring service to our customers. Crop monitoring via satellites enables the farmer to detect problems before they are visible to the naked eye. This is a valuable management tool in increasing yields and minimizing risk. Key Clients
