Halilco Foods expands production line in Kano
A leading food and beverage manufacturing company, Halilco Foods, has officially commissioned its state-of-the-art Instant cocoa Production Line in Kano.
The event, held on Thursday, marks a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to providing high-quality, nutritious, and convenient food products to Nigerians.
Speaking at the commissioning in Kano, the Managing Director of Halilco Foods, Abbas Fadlallah, emphasized that the new facility represents a massive expansion of their previous production capacity.
According to him, the company previously produced 1,000 cartons of Instant cocoa per month, but with the new production line, output is expected to increase to 20,000 cartons monthly—an astonishing 500% increase.
He credited this achievement to the financial support and partnership of Propcom+, a development program focused on economic growth and sustainability.
In his remarks, the Political Director and Team Leader of PropCom Plus, Dr. Adiya Ode, described Halilco Foods as a “development champion” in agriculture, bio-fortification, and women’s empowerment.
He explained that their partnership began last year when Halilco Foods successfully applied for a grant through a competitive selection process.
