Cormart Nigeria Limited, a subsidiary of the TGI Group will commence the production of sandwich panels in January 2023.

According to statement, the Cormart’s General Manager, Dr. Johannes Flosbach, said: “We are ramping up our preparation to commence production. The factory construction is on schedule, and we will be ready to begin production in January 2023.”

The Cormart’s Business Development and Strategy Manager, Samuel Olarinde, said: “The sandwich panels will be produced using state-of-the-art technology with quality materials sourced from the best in the industry. We will match import standards to reduce the difficulties of FX and other supply chain issues for customers in Nigeria and other West African countries.”

Cormart’s Managing Director, Martin Middernacht, highlighted the potential of using sandwich panels in the poultry industry. 

He also noted that the difficulty in the poultry sector, as in most other industries, is growing demand and limited production capacity. 

Continuing, he added: “As of today, the sandwich panels used in large-scale poultry operations are mostly imported, and this has an impact on production costs, schedules, and business growth plans. We want to increase local manufacturing capacity to boost import substitution, and ultimately contribute to the Nigerian economy by saving on foreign exchange that could otherwise have gone to export.”
