Cassava Chips Background

Exporter of Cassava Chips from Nigeria

Nigeria is one of the world’s top producers and exporters of cassava products, including dried cassava chips. With vast farmlands and favorable conditions, cassava is cultivated extensively for both local consumption and export purposes.

Cassava chips are a versatile and in-demand commodity, used in animal feed, ethanol production, and as a key raw material for industrial starch. With increasing global demand and Nigeria's consistent supply, cassava chips represent a growing opportunity in agro-exports.

What Are Cassava Chips?

Cassava chips are dried slices of cassava tubers (Manihot esculenta), typically produced by peeling, slicing, and drying the roots. These chips are high in carbohydrates and are commonly used in animal feed production, ethanol distillation, and even as a base for processed snacks in some industries.
