Bokomo Empowers Local Farmers

The miller added the move is also another way to lead the country towards becoming self-reliant in food production and thus creating jobs and cutting the import bill.

Bokomo’s chief executive officer (CEO), Werner de Beer told Business Monitor they currently use raw materials produced by local farmers in their milling process. The company procures wheat and maize directly from local farmers and the Botswana Agricultural Marketing Board (BAMB).
