By the mid-nineties, the farm was fully stocked with over 7,000 pigs In 2013, the piggery was reactivated with genetics from Topigs SA. From an initial stock of 173 pigs, the pig farm has grown to over 2,500 herd comprising both commercial and breeding pigs Imo Hill Farms has been awarded SON NIS 517:2006 Certification of conformity for its Table Eggs while its other farm products are in the process of being certified IHF has over 160 employees, including some expatriate staff

17 N'000 Funding Requirement Page 17 Phase Broiler Meat Processing Working Capital IHF requires a sum of N108million to consolidate and achieve full optimisation of the facilities installed in Phase 1. N20million will be used to acquire equipment required at Broiler House 2 and for other necessary construction works to be done in the house. The N10million will be used to buy an additional blast freezer to be used in the meat processing factory while the balance of the N78million will serve as working capital for the next three months IHF estimates that these sums will be utilised till year end 2016 and that Phase 2 will commence in 2017
18 18 Market Assessment
19 '000 tonnes Market Assessment Page 19 Demand for livestock products estimated at 2.4 million tonnes per annum whilst supply is only 1.2 million tonnes Therefore a supply gap of 1.2 million tonnes per annum of livestock products Market size of supply gap estimated at N1.35 trillion Demand Supply Supply Gap Market size of Gap 000 tonnes N mm Poultry ,580 Pork ,363 Eggs 1, , , , , ,345,953 Demand Vs Supply of Livestock Products Hence, there is an opportunity for IHF s increased products to fill some of this gap Poultry Pork Egg Source: FAO Statistics Demand Supply
20 20 The Opportunity
21 The Opportunity Page 21 Some of the opportunities available for IHF in Nigeria include: Increased demand for poultry products from local farmers due to ban on the importation of frozen chicken and Government s continuous efforts to prevent the smuggling of frozen poultry products The Central Bank of Nigeria s exclusion of importers of poultry/meat products from accessing foreign exchange loans in the Nigerian market Increased demand for table eggs as it is the cheapest source of protein to Nigerians Increase and popularity of Quick Service restaurants in urban centres Rapid growth in the Nigerian population Reduction in feed cost and improved nutrient quality of feed from in-house feed production Strategic location of IHF with proximity to the Northern and South-South regions
