Tomato Jos Farming and Processing Limited Job Vacancies

Over the last five years, we have run Nigeria's largest active tomato farm in Kaduna, when Mira Mehta encountered her first tomato market glut in Northern Nigeria. Nigerian farmers produced about 65% of the tomatoes grown in West Africa, but paradoxically was also the largest importer of tomato paste in the world. Tomato Jos took advantage of this opportunity by solving a vital problem. Why import all that tomato paste when Nigeria has surplus amounts of tomatoes? produced 7 billion tomatoes, with yield 7x above national yield average. Today, we have begun processing tomato paste at our $5 million plant in Kaduna State and with our farm in Kangimi, in Igabi Local Government Area, Tomato Jos has already impacted on its community, creating jobs and empowering its outgrowers with modern farming techniques and a route to market. Tomato Jos has 50 full-time employees, 20 additional local security staff members patrolling the fields and 350 partner farmers who receive support and education to increase their crop yields for supply to the company.
