As Nigeria celebrated its 65th Independence anniversary, Farmergiant Limited marked the milestone by commissioning its permanent headquarters in Ibadan, Oyo State. The new office is located at Km 6, Abeokuta Road, Apata, Ibadan, and the event took place on October 1, 2025. Alongside the ribbonโcutting, the company also hoisted a large Nigerian flag and introduced a refreshed corporate logo to reflect its growth and patriotic theme.

Dr. Adoyi Paul Oche, Managing Director/CEO of Farmergiant, described the move as more than just a change of address. He said the triple celebration;new headquarters, logo unveiling, and flag-hoisting was designed to demonstrate both love for the country and an affirmation of the companyโs widening reach in agriculture services. Although officially registered for 13 years, Farmergiant traces its roots more than two decades back through veterinary medicine, family farming and consultancy. Its operations now span poultry, piggery, crop farms (including cassava and plantain), equipment manufacture, and agricultural engineering.
Services, Innovation, and Calls for Policy Support

Farmergiantโs portfolio includes manufacturing poultry incubators of 500 to 33,000 capacity, feed processing machines, cassava processing units, and palm oil mills. Its incubators are designed for local conditions, tolerating inconsistent power supply, and emphasising efficiency. Dr. Oche said these designs are deliberate to suit Nigeriaโs farming realities. Operational strength in engineering, efficient design, and local manufacturing distinguish the company from imported alternatives.
Employees at Farmergiant reported growth in internal leadership, with some rising from farm attendants to managerial positions, a sign of internal capacity building. For example, Sales Manager Ayomiposi Salami shared that he rose from humble beginnings over nine years, while Engineer Jude Iyoko praised the engineering teamโs dedication to lowering costs and improving productivity.
Even with its expansion, Dr. Oche urged stronger government implementation of agricultural policies. He pointed out that while policies like free tariffs, poultry import bans, and Anchor Borrowers are well intentioned, enforcement, access to funding, and judicial support remain weak. He advocated for more investment in real infrastructure and accountability to help agric businesses like Farmergiant scale further.
