Primary Industries
ADF has developed select entities focused on resources. The following vehicles cover the main sectors.
ADF Mining
ADF Mining engages with government and/or private consortiums to develop opportunities from small through to large scale projects.
ADF Mining interests span exploration of Greenfield sites, the development of CPR and due diligence reports, design and establishment of mining sites, through to operations management to produce the required minerals as final product.
Development of mining operations in Africa is often constrained because of prevailing energy challenges and industry issues. ADF Mining,owns a patented power saving capability to save up to 70% in energy costs in the processing of mineral ore to final mineral extraction. This places ADF Mining in a unique position to develop mining operations with lower costs and hence higher returns on investment.
ADF Agriculture
The old ways of farming in Africa are slowly giving way to modernized techniques and the closer coordination of agribusiness firms, farmers, retailers and other important players in the complicated supply chain.
ADF Agriculture specializes in supplying inputs, support services and turnkey solutions to governments and companies in the agricultural and land rehabilitation sector. The aim is to create new and sustainable opportunities, improve competitiveness and strengthen the cooperation among all stakeholders in the supply chain – from land to fork.
A key to agricultural success is to help farmers become more successful. To do that, ADF Agriculture not only introduces new production technologies but does so in such a way as to protect effective indigenous knowledge and practice.
ADF Agriculture is also directly responsible for the evaluation and due diligence assessments for all its projects. This includes conducting all agri-enterprise evaluations, strategic planning, resource management, financial resourcing, product development and project implementation.
