BUA Group, one of Africa’s largest foods, mining, manufacturing and industrial conglomerates, has signed an agreement with CIMC ENRIC, a global leader in the energy equipment industry, in partnership with Axxela, to establish a 700-ton-per-day mini LNG project in Nigeria. The signing ceremony took place yesterday at the BUA Group headquarters in Lagos.

This strategic agreement marks a significant milestone in BUA Group’s expansion into the energy sector and reaffirms BUA’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions across its business operations.

Speaking on this landmark project, the Chairman of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, said BUA Group remains dedicated to utilising cleaner, energy-efficient sources for its operations across Nigeria in line with its short to-long-term ESG commitments and sustainability initiatives. He added that whilst BUA already utilizes gas as a major energy source across its over 1,000megawatts captive power plants for its operations across Nigeria, the mini LNG project upon completion, will enhance the all-year availability of cleaner energy and support BUA Group’s growing industrial power demands. “We are excited about the prospects of this project and look forward to a fruitful collaboration with CIMC ENRIC and Axxela,” he added.
