PitchDeck: Poultry Project: Ghana Africa

Posted on by larry.lundstrom in just cool stuff, technology twist

Had the privilege to talk with Anthony Owusu regarding interest in funding for a poultry processing plant in Ejisu, Kumasi, Ghana Africa. Follow the convo at UseBubbles.com.

Earlier this year, the Ghana Chicken Festival was held in Accra to provide a platform for poultry players to interact and advocate for more consumption of locally-produced chicken. According to the festival’s coordinator, Asiwome Biekro, about 95% of chicken consumed in Ghana is imported, adding that the chicken sector was one of the key industries that could spur Ghana’s economic development, noting that many jobs would be created if the local sector took a 25% market share.

Abstract from International Journal of Management Sciences

In the last five years US poultry exports to Ghana have increased to reach between 22-25 percent of the market demand despite increased competition from Brazil and European Union (EU). U.S. poultry enjoys price advantages compared to others but has lost market share to Brazil, due to the poor labelling and packaging. Ghana continues to be a  destination for  U.S. poultry due to strong relationships between importers and exporters, loyalty to U.S. poultry products, and accessibility.

Where we come in for both business and economic impact taking 25%; Per the data and section captured from the above link is what brought EDEN-PAAS into existence in 2020 as a profit making opportunity to help solve the challenges of Ghana’s Poultry industry.

This is an intriguing project for sure with a pilot poultry processing plant already on the ground with 500-1000 chickens processed in a three month growing cycle with 3 employees currently running the farm. One person is dedicated to intake, one for daily feeding and care and processing, one dedicated wherever needed and overall management.
