Jomoro MP engages investors over proposed coconut processing factory

For Jomoro, the establishment of a coconut processing factory could contribute to industrialisation, economic diversification and increased local value creation, given the municipality’s agricultural potential.

During the meeting, the Jomoro MP, who is also Deputy Transport Minister, highlighted the area’s significant potential for coconut production and the need to move beyond the export of raw agricultural produce through local processing and value addition.

If successfully realised, the project could also help strengthen the local agricultural sector, reduce post-harvest losses and position Jomoro as a hub for coconut processing and related industries.
