Matam Phosphate

Afcor’s newest project involves the acquiring, shipping of and implementation of a Phosphate Granular plant.The plant, designed and manufactured in South Africa, was sourced by Afcor according to the requirements of the Senegalese government. The plant was placed in full operation in Vereeniging in South Africa for 48 hours for Afcor and SERPM to fully inspect the plant and its capabilities.

Everything went down without a hitch and so the plant was disassembled and shipped to Senegal. The plant arrived a couple of weeks later and was immediately transported to the operating site just outside the town of Matam approximately 700km from Dakar. Afcor send 5 engineers from South Africa to assemble the complete plant, to put it into operation and to competently train the new operators. The plant manufactures up to 120 tons of granulated phosphate per day and can due to its modular design easily be upgraded to produce higher levels in the future should the need arise.

This partnership between Afcor and SERPM, from the Senegalese government, is a proud section of Afcor’s business portfolio in West Africa and in Senegal. “Senegal is West Africa’s business central…” as described by Afcor President Mr. Johan van der Westhuizen: “it wasn’t too hard to convince my board to invest in this project and for them to see this great opportunity for prosperous long term business in Senegal.” “we are very proud of this project…” The plant will officially be opened by Mr. van der Westhuizen and Director General of SERPM, Mr. Eugene Faye, with some talk of Pres. Wade himself cutting the opening ribbon…
