About Us
Who We Are
Sierra Agro-based Industries and Services Ltd., trading as Sierra Bo Garri, is a subsidiary of Razpec Holdings Ltd. We are proudly a 100% Sierra Leone-owned agrobusiness enterprise operating across the cassava value chain, from full-scale production and processing to marketing cassava-based products such as garri, attieke, and high-quality cassava flour through industrialization. Cassava industrialization is about the increased contribution of cassava to economic transformation through stakeholder involvement and building an agricultural business economy capable of delivering sustained prosperity for food security, export promotion, sustained income, and job creation. From a humble beginning, we have grown to become the largest cassava producer and processor in Sierra Leone, with the capacity to process 16 tons of cassava per day.
To help address food insecurity in the country, we aim to promote the consumption of cassava-based products through dietary diversification, biofortification, and supplementation. We support the Transformation of poor communities from zones of economic misery to zones of economic prosperity through wealth and job creation for women and youth empowerment. This is achieved through a well-structured out-grower scheme that will not only create access to market opportunities but also capacity building and supply of good quality inputs. The result is increased production and productivity, transforming rural farmers from subsistence farming into agribusiness. Innovation is a driving force in the success of the Sierra Bo Garri brand, and we are proud to leverage the reputation of our holding company. With a healthy appetite for growth, we will continue to invest in new capabilities and technologies to produce a broad range of products to meet the needs of our customers across the retail and food stores, both domestic and international.
