The Sierra Leone Produce Marketing Company Limited was established by the Government of Sierra Leone to comply with the various regulations in relation to the buying and exporting of produce. It operates as a company seeking to maximize shareholder value, whilst taking into account the interest of all stakeholders within the agricultural supply chain. A main focus of SLPMC is the smallholder farmer, who in the past has been denied access to high value markets, high quality input and education. SLPMC understands that it can only be successfu in sourcing high quality produce by building long term relationships with its suppliers and customers alike. SLPMC stimulates a long term sustainability by linking the farmer in Sierra Leone to markets with highly competitive products.
