My company is interested in the business model and technology for extracting sugar from cassava in commercial quantities.

Anyone with ideas on this can drop their numbers/emails here please.

Why don't you want to use sugar-cane? (You can convert cassava starch to sucrose but it's likely to be more costly than using sugar-cane)

Cassava seems to command higher unit price than sugar cane. Sugar cane can grow anywhere in Nigeria, why compete with those using cassava as food?
