Feronia

Feronia is an agribusiness based in Vancouver, Canada, operating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The company produces crude palm oil and palm kernel oil from three oil palm plantations, the first of which was established in 1911. Following its acquisition of the palm oil business in 2009, Feronia focused on revitalizing these plantations, which were on the verge of extinction, through significant investment and development efforts. The company aims to contribute to the local economy and secure a sustainable future for its operations, supplying palm oil primarily for the domestic market. In addition to palm oil production, Feronia also engages in arable farming, further supporting its agricultural initiatives in the region.
