Indorama to challenge Dangote in Fertilizer production with $8bn investment?
Indorama Petrochemical Limited has pledged a new investment of $8 billion U.S. dollars in the expansion of its fertilizer production and petrochemical facility in Eleme, Rivers State.
The question for Indorama will be that if Dangote will rely on by-products from his refinery, where will Indorama get its own? Is it from the endless repairs at the four moribund refineries?
Only time will tell on the success of the Indorama new investment.
