On January 16, 2025, a significant milestone in Mauritania’s agricultural sector was achieved as the Minister of Economy and Finance, Sid Ahmed Ould Bouh, presided over the signing of a groundbreaking partnership agreement between the Agricultural Investment and Development Authority (AAIDA) and the international agricultural firm GG Group. This collaboration signifies a bold move towards enhancing agricultural investment activities in Mauritania, a country rich in potential for agricultural development.
The agreement was signed by H.E. Dr. Obaid Saif Al Zaabi, Chairman of AAIDA, and Mr. Rajesh S. Jain, General Manager of GG Group. Their newfound partnership is centered on an ambitious agricultural initiative which aims to not only improve local farming practices but also bolster food security in the region.
This strategic project will focus on the production, preservation, cooling, and distribution of vegetables, along with a dedicated effort to increase wheat production, which is essential for both local consumption and export opportunities. The total investment required for the initiative is estimated to be around fifty million dollars, highlighting the scale and dedication towards revitalizing Mauritania’s agricultural landscape.
The collaboration between the Arab Company for Agricultural Services in Mauritania, a subsidiary of AAIDA, and GG Group is poised to bring about transformative changes in the agricultural sector.
