The Dangote Flour Mills Initial Public Offer will today open to the investing public. The 1.250 billion (1, 250, 000, 000) ordinary shares of 50k each at N15 per share will be managed by 11 issuing houses.
This is coming against the backdrop of the hugely successful offer and listing of the Dangote Sugar Refinery late last year.
Dangote Flour Mills Ltd commenced operations in 1999, as a division of Dangote Industries Limited, one of Nigeria’s largest growing conglomerates.
Following the decision of Dangote Industries Limited to unbundle its various operations, Dangote Flour Mills Plc was incorporated in 2006.
The restructuring was completed in January 2006, when a federal high court sanctioned a Scheme of Arrangement wherein all the assets, liabilities and under takings of the erstwhile flour division of DIL were transferred to Dangote Flour Mills Plc.
From an initial installed capacity of 500 MT per day at its Apapa mill, Dangote Flour has expanded rapidly by opening three other flour mills in Kano (2000), Calabar (2001) and Ilorin (2005)  in   quick  succession.
Each of the mills started with an installed capacity of 500 MT per day but three of them were subsequently expanded resulting in a total of 4000 MT per day, distributed as follows: Apapa -1, 000 MT per day, Kano -1,500 MT per day, Calabar 1,000 MT per day and Ilorin 500 Mt per day.
These expansions were in response to a growing national demand for flour and flour-based products in addition to the company’s drive for increased market share.
Dangote Flour Mills has grown to become one of the industry leaders within a six year period. The company has two wholly owned subsidiaries namely Dangote Agro Sacks Limited and Dangote Pasta Limited.
The company is in the business of flour milling, processing and marketing of branded flour. Its product portfolio comprises of Bread Flour, Pasta Semolina and Wheat Offal (Bran).
