The project will be the company’s first pasta-manufacturing facility in northern Mozambique and is intended to expand local production, reduce reliance on imports and support food security.
The purchase comes as part of a broader US$472.5 million initiative authorized under Section 32 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1935 to absorb domestic commodity surpluses, stabilize farm-gate prices, and deliver essential staple foods to low-income families and emergency food networks across the country.
The project is part of the federal government’s efforts to modernize port infrastructure, expand the logistical capacity of the North region and strengthen the flow of Brazilian agricultural production to national and international markets.
The program, funded through ADM Cares, the company’s corporate social investment program, aims to improve agricultural productivity, strengthen climate resilience and promote sustainable livelihoods
The investments are being implemented in two phases through 2027.
