Ferrostaal has in fact already agreed to grant €95m in favour of members of WAFA (West African Fertilizer Association), a group of fertiliser producers in West Africa brought together by ECOWAS. According to information gathered by Jeune Afrique Business+, this agreement covers an initial 10-year financing of €45m for capital expenditure and a second one-year revolving credit of €50m for annual fertiliser supplies. The purchases are to be made in Europe, mostly from German suppliers.
