VICAMPRO - THE POTATO COMPANY

As  population of the world increase, food and water would become scarce. Already we see a large portion of the world suffering from starvation. The question on our minds is why this? Is food too expensive or is it not available. We believe strongly there are two critical components to having a better world. One security of lives and properties as a result of fewer conflicts. The second is cheap, available and sustainable food supply. Vicampro is a part of the solution to provide food security for Nigeria and the world.

Our Mission: To boost food security in Nigeria and Africa. We do not want to have a large chunk of a small pie but to promote the economic development of not just the potato industry but also the agricultural sector so as to boost food security in Nigeria and Africa. In order to improve the agricultural sector in Africa, we bring together farmers, growers, agricultural technology companies, international development organizations, government parastatals and other industry stakeholders.


Our Vision: To be the most admired agro-business in the industry admired for its people, innovation, partnerships and empathy. We believe our vision has a bigger purpose than profit-making, sales or revenue generation.

We have a greater purpose, which is to make a positive lifelong impact on our continent in the area of food security. To achieve this vision, we would invest in farmers, talent, communities and the environment. We believe we are part of a larger community that is challenged by insecurity; we would therefore promote peace and togetherness in the areas that we operate.
