Zanaco raised USD 250 million through a syndicated facility for United Capital Fertilizer Zambia Ltd (UCF), the country’s largest locally arranged syndication. As principal arranger and majority lender, Zanaco alongside six other banks is enabling over 1 million small scale farmers to access more affordable fertiliser. In just two years, UCF has become one of the key fertizer suppliers across Zambia and neighbouring countries, including Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Botswana, the DRC, and Malawi, strengthening regional trade and food security.
Building on its earlier USD 150 million agriculture financing, which supported a bumper 2024 – 2025 harvest, Zanaco continues to drive Zambia’s agricultural transformation.
