AGRIMAC, Sudan’s Rotana Flour Mill seal expansion deal to boost milling capacity
The deal also includes the construction of 90,000 tonnes of steel silo storage, supporting integrated grain handling.
SUDAN – AGRIMAC Makina Limited (AGRIMAC), a Turkish grain processing and milling technology provider, and Sudan’s Rotana Flour Mills have formalised a contract for a turnkey flour milling project that will increase Rotana Group’s total milling capacity from 2,800 tonnes per day (TPD) to 4,800 TPD.
The project seeks to reinforce a long-term partnership focused on scale, reliability, and operational continuity.
According to the contract, the deal also includes the construction of 90,000 tonnes of steel silo storage, supporting integrated grain handling and long-term operational continuity for one of Sudan’s key flour producers.
The signing ceremony, held on January 3, reinforces the strategic relationship between AGRIMAC and Sudan’s private milling sector.
Under the agreement, AGRIMAC will engineer, procure, and install two new 1,000 TPD milling lines with associated storage and handling systems.
Construction timelines and commissioning targets for the new lines have not yet been publicly disclosed.
Once commissioned, these additions will raise Rotana Group’s installed capacity by more than 70 percent, significantly enhancing its ability to meet domestic demand and strengthen supply chain resilience.
Rotana Flour Mills, established in April 2014, plays a pivotal role in Sudan’s wheat milling sector and broader food supply infrastructure. The company produces a range of flour products for industrial and retail markets, contributing to the country’s food security agenda.
The deal reflects a trend in the Middle East and Africa toward modernising milling operations with technology-driven, high-capacity plants.
For Rotana Group, the expansion addresses both immediate production needs and long-term strategic positioning.
The enhanced capacity will not only support domestic demand but also strengthen Sudan’s milling industry’s ability to respond to regional flour demand. Rotana’s distribution network already extends across multiple states from its Khartoum and Port Sudan facilities.
On the other hand, AGRIMAC has expanded its global grain-processing footprint beyond this project.
Recently, the company commissioned a 600 TPD semolina production facility in Mardin, Türkiye, supporting downstream wheat processing sectors such as pasta and couscous production.
AGRIMAC’s portfolio includes engineering services for flour, semolina, feed mills, silo systems, and port handling equipment, signalling its capability to deliver complex and large-scale agribusiness infrastructure projects.
