The Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals has revealed plans to partner with an international petrochemicals distribution company, Vinmar Group, to export Dangote polypropylene to global markets.
The refinery began 25kg bag polypropylene production in March for the local market.
Nigeria currently imports 90% of its annual polypropylene requirements, amounting to 250,000 metric tonnes per year.
“We’re pleased to partner with Vinmar to introduce Dangote Polypropylene to the global markets,” an executive director at Dangote Group, Fatima Aliko Dangote, said at the launch of the facility on Wednesday.
The Dangote facility seeks to not only meet local demand but also become a net exporter. (Channels)
