Classic FM interview with Marion Shikwinya, head of Lemang Agricultural Services (Michael Avery, Classic Business)

Marion Shikwinya, who will head up Lemang Agricultural Services, which will provide a focussed service in the further development of commercial black farmers in South Africa, speaks to Michael Avery of Classic Business  (Classic FM) about the venture. Lemang Agricultural Services has been created specifically by AFGRI Group Holdings (AGH) to support large farmers ready to take the final steps towards becoming full-scale commercial farmers. This includes offering financial assistance to these new commercial farmers, one of the benefits flowing from having access to a banking license following the recent regulatory approval of the Group’s acquisition of the South African Bank of Athens Limited, alongside existing financial services such as UNIGRO. Lemang Agricultural Services will be housed within AFGRI.
