LILONGWE – Malawi’s drive to boost local fertilizer production has received a major lift after the Malawi Environment Protection Authority (MEPA) officially approved Mulalo Granular, a fertilizer manufacturing company owned by businessman Napoleon Dzombe, to begin operations.
The approval follows MEPA’s confirmation that the company has satisfied all environmental protection requirements and submitted an acceptable environmental management plan to ensure its operations comply with national regulations.Napoleon Dzombe: The Making of a Patriotic Industrialist in Malawi
The development comes after weeks of public debate over delays surrounding the plant. Parliament recently established a committee to investigate what had been holding back the launch of the fertilizer factory.
The clearance is expected to pave the way for the long-awaited start of local fertilizer production, a move that could strengthen Malawi’s agricultural sector and reduce reliance on imported fertilizer.
