“Equity Bank offered us a great deal with sufficient capital and has consistently supported our growth through reliable trade,” Itaaga said. Master Grain Milling established dedicated finance, production and sales departments and expanded its distribution network through regional depots across the country. Despite the investments in machinery and distribution, Master Grain Milling says its next phase of growth depends largely on access to more working capital. For Master Grain Milling, unlocking this financing could therefore determine how quickly its existing industrial capacity is translated into higher output and revenues. For Master Grain Milling, the partnership with Equity Bank has evolved from addressing an immediate financing challenge to supporting a longer-term industrial growth journey.
