Kalomo Grain Marketing Ltd

Kalomo Grain Marketing Limited (KGML) is an agriculture company operating as a grain producing, processing and trading company. Founded and headed by Sarah Ngwenya, KGML was incorporated on 30th March 2010 under the Registration of Companies Act of the Laws of Zambia. The company was established to become a leader in the grain and commodities trade in Zambia with plans of expanding to other countries in the region. KGML is centered on the production of Supreme Oil, an edible oil produced from soya-beans. Supreme Oil is a Zambian owned vegetable oil brand produced to carter for the Zambian market as well as neighboring countries most of which have an edible oil deficit. Supreme Oil is manufactured from soya-beans that is produced at the KGML Farms with additional supply coming from 400 small-scale farmers incorporated in the KGML Supreme Women Co-operative Out-grower Scheme. KGML realized that having significant control of the processes in the edible oil value chain was key to the success of the company, it is for this reason that KGML produces its own key raw material in the cooking oil manufacturing processes, which is soya-beans. Out of the oil crops KGML manufactures and supplies the following products and by-products- Pure Vegetable Oil -Soyabeans Cake -Soya Meal -Soya-beans Grain Also through its Supreme Oil, KGML works with women smallholder farmers in Mumbwa through an initiative called Supreme Women Co-operative Society, who are supplied with certified soya bean seeds and fertilizer to grow soya beans on their farms, after which KGML buys the soya beans and processes them into 100% cholesterol free vegetable oil at its processing plant in nearby Nambwa, thus providing the locals with a ready market for their soya beans and a cheap highly nutritious vegetable oil which they provide to their families, as well as cheap soya bean cake for their livestock.
