About Us

BIO PLANET TMC Ltd is a Benin-based social enterprise dedicated to promoting sustainable agriculture and environmental regeneration across West Africa. The company transforms biodegradable waste into high-quality granulated organic fertilizer with natural pest-repellent properties. By combining local innovation with circular economy principles, BIO PLANET TMC Ltd restores degraded soils, enhances agricultural productivity, and reduces dependency on chemical inputs. Beyond environmental impact, the company creates inclusive economic opportunities by engaging women and rural youth in the waste-recovery and production value chain. Through training, education, and green job creation, BIO PLANET TMC Ltd empowers Indigenous communities to lead the transition toward climate-smart agriculture and improved food security.

Africa’s fertilizer market is undergoing a major expansion, valued at 54.77 billion USD in 2025 and projected to reach 77.84 billion USD by 2030 (Market Data Forecast). In volume terms, the continent’s consumption is expected to approach 48 million tons by 2035 (IndexBox). Yet West Africa still imports more than 85 % of its fertilizers, exposing farmers to chronic shortages, volatile prices, and disruptions that directly affect food security. This dependency strengthens the need for reliable, locally produced fertilizers adapted to regional soils and climate realities.

Within this broader landscape, organic fertilizers are emerging as the fastest-growing segment. The African organic fertilizer market is valued at around 560 million USD in 2025 and is projected to reach nearly 1 billion USD by 2030, growing at more than 12 % annually (Mordor Intelligence). Despite this growth, organic agriculture still represents less than 0.2 % of Africa’s cultivated land (GlobeNewswire), indicating how early the transition is and how large the untapped opportunity remains. This signals a high-growth, underpenetrated market where early entrants can capture significant market share as adoption accelerates. In West Africa, the shift toward sustainable inputs is reinforced by strong fertilizer import dependency and growing demand for soil-restoration solutions among the region’s 120 million farmers (ECOWAS Fertilizer Business Guide). In Benin, overall fertilizer imports reached more than 330,000 tons in 2023, while organic fertilizer production grew by 12 % between 2019 and 2023, confirming a measurable rise in sustainable farming practices (IFDC Benin Fertilizer Statistics).

This shift is creating a rapidly widening supply gap in the organic segment. In the first half of 2025, BIO PLANET TMC Ltd received 1,230 tons of formal requests in Benin alone, and based on current adoption trends, our internal projections indicate that demand for our quality pest-control granulated organic fertilizer could exceed 5,000 tons in 2026. Meanwhile, current annual production capacity is limited to 200 tons. To address this unmet demand, our scale-up plan targets increasing capacity to 2,000–3,000 tons annually within the next 24–30 months, and reaching over 10,000 tons annually starting from 2028. Our registration on the United Nations Global Marketplace further strengthens this trajectory by enhancing international credibility and visibility, which can accelerate regional adoption and unlock new procurement channels across West Africa. This will position BIO PLANET TMC to meet urgent local demand and expand into high-potential West African markets that currently lack stable access to quality organic fertilizers with natural pest-control properties. The opportunity is clear: scalable, locally produced pest-control granulated organic fertilizer is becoming a critical input for food security, climate resilience, and the future of sustainable agriculture in West Africa.
