TEMPE, Ariz., March 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SoOum Corp. (OTCPINK: SOUM) an International Physical Commodities Trading company and web-based trade platform (SoOum.com) announces it begun discussions in Nigeria with local government and USAID officials to start and manage an abattoir (slaughterhouse) located in the country.
After management’s invitation to an agricultural expo held in Nigeria in October 2018, an official from both Company and the country entered into preliminary discussions. Following the conference, a national senator invited management to visit Keffi, Nasarawa state, central Nigeria. Both SOUM and officials discussed the upstart and management of a modern abattoir located in the country, already built but not operated.
Helping the people of Nigeria in their quest to close the gap on food scarcity by introducing modern ranching operations as an alternative to the Nomadic system that already exists remains the primary objective of both SOUM and country officials.
SOUM’s mission, therefore, encompasses ranching, controlled feedlot and cross-breeding of cattle to engineer tender, softer, beef, that will help feed the entire country and generate trade.
The Company continues with talks with a private Investment firm to secure safe, non- dilutive financing options for the project.
Updates on the project to become available as progress moves forward
