Project Overview

Initially, the mill’s capacity was 2.5 tons/hour. The machinery and equipment was old and obsolete.

SEDF’s Assistance

SEDF provided credit assistance of Rs. 10 Million to Sangam Rice Mill. With SEDF’s help, the mill has successfully replaced old machinery and equipment with brand new husking unit (capacity at 5 tons/hour) consisting of local as well as Chinese machinery. This improved grain quality and fetched better prices in the local market as well as through exports. The new unit minimized the breakup ratio and average grain length was also increased. This resulted in 12-15% increase in total revenues.
