BUA SUGAR: has a combined capacity of 1.5 million tons per annum from both its Lagos and Port Harcourt refineries, with Port Harcourt plant being an export-based refinery, and the West African region as its target market.
BUA RICE: BUA Group currently operates a 200,000 metric tonnes per annum, which is being upgraded to 1million, as well as about 10,000 hectares rice plantation in Kano. It has a robust out-grower scheme targeting about 100,000 rice farmers.

Aside from its 200,000bpd mega refinery and petrochemical facility, whose progress has even attracted the French President’s commendation, BUA recently signed an MOU with Erba Makina of Turkey for the construction of a 2,000tons/day Plaster of Paris (Gypsum Powder) production plant, which will be the largest in Nigeria.
BUA is definitely a Pride of Naija brand.
