Agriculture
Agriculture remains the largest component of GDP in Nigeria and of the largest contributors to GDP growth and employment. Aided by favourable government policy, entrepreneurship and foreign investment, agriculture is steadily gaining recognition as one of the most formidable drivers of the Nigerian economy following years of oil dominance. With new strides in productivity, technology, operations management, trade, investment management and government policy, the agriculture industry is set to become even more dynamic in the coming years.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”grey” align=”align_center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”container”][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_wp_custommenu nav_menu=”8″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text]Players in the agriculture industry are increasingly being faced with dynamic, constantly evolving variables all of which possess the capacity to significantly accelerate or impair organizational performance.
We work closely with players in the agriculture industry, helping them to make sense of evolving industry dynamics and helping them to predict and manage how these dynamics impact their bottom-line. We also work with clients to understand emerging opportunities as well as institute capabilities and drive initiatives all geared towards helping the clients take advantage of the opportunities in the marketplace.[/vc_column_text][vc_tabs interval=”0″][vc_tab title=”Client” tab_id=”b1fe1e0b-1bb2-6″][vc_column_text]
