The facility is expected to begin operations in 2029 with an annual production capacity of three million tonnes, making it the largest modern fertiliser plant in East Africa. The overall project cost is estimated at about $2.5 billion, with Dangote Group holding a 60% equity stake and Ethiopian Investment Holdings holding 40%.
