The annual wheat flour shortfall in this market is 240,000 tons annually. At the lowest price of $200 per ton of wheat flour, the potential wheat flour sales are $200 * 240,000 = $48 million, annually. This is only one market in the region, the entire region has a wheat flour shortfall of 9.3 million tons annually. Our target market, which has an annual wheat flour shortfall of 240,000 tons, makes up its annual flour shortfall by imports from Europe and Asia. The country is Zambia, and the region is Southern Africa. Of the 16 countries in the region ( Regional population- 353 million) only South Africa has a significant wheat growing culture, and it still imports 1.6 million tons of wheat flour annually. Our project is first supply the flour shortfall in Zambia, and then the rest of the region. We can do this by partnering with the Zambian small holder farmers. Africans don't grow wheat, but they do grow cassava (yuca). Cassava is a tropical crop, and is grown by more than half a million small holder farmers in Zambia. Cassava when processed produces a gluten free flour which is interchangeable 1:1 with wheat flour. We, the farmers of Zambia, will provide the land and the cassava product, but we will need capital. Commercial farming is expensive. We will need tractors, fuel, irrigation, solar panels,e.t.c but together, we can turn our river valleys into a land of milk and honey, and give you higher returns on your investments than you can find anywhere else in this world.
