Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest man and President of the Dangote Group, has launched the construction of a $2.5 billion fertiliser plant in Gode, Ethiopia, a project expected to reshape food security and industrialisation across the continent.

  • Dangote Group launches a $2.5bn fertiliser plant in Gode, Ethiopia, in partnership with Ethiopian Investment Holdings.
  • The facility will produce 3 million metric tonnes of urea annually, one of the world’s largest capacities.
  • Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed hailed the project as a symbol of cooperation, peace, and Ethiopia’s global presence.
  • Dangote predicts Ethiopia could become Africa’s leading agricultural nation within five years.

The mega-plant, built in partnership with Ethiopian Investment Holdings, will produce three million metric tonnes of urea annually, making it one of the world’s largest fertiliser complexes.

Located in Ethiopia’s South-East, the facility will tap into natural gas from the Hilal and Calub reserves, driving agricultural productivity and creating thousands of jobs.
