It has invested in a fully equipped laboratory with a capacity of 10 million plants from which +600,000 plantlets were produced and exported to two of the largest agro-industrialists in West Africa. As Agrobiotech has shifted toward scaling up its capacity and operations, the company management has identified additional activities that will expand its revenue base and wants to finalize a business plan for growth for the next 5 years.
