About the investment

Goldtree is a commercial palm oil plantation and milling operation located near Daru in Sierra Leone. Apart from relying on its own nucleus plantation and sourcing from other commercial plantations, the business partners with the local farming community by purchasing fresh fruit bunches (FFB) from 10,000 outgrower farmers. The mill processes the FFB into crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel oil (PKO).
