Maize supplier to Zambia
White maize, yellow maize, Grain Co maize meal and soybeans from South Africa, delivered by road to buyers in Zambia. We own the product, so you deal with one counterparty from farm to delivery.
Delivering to Zambia
By road north from South Africa to Lusaka and on to the Copperbelt. Zambia sits on our main corridor to the DRC border, so loads to Zambian buyers travel the same route as our Kasumbalesa convoys.
