New Amufert board for Soyo project

Amufert has appointed a new Board of Directors as its gas‑based ammonia and urea complex in Soyo, Zaire Province moves from planning into the execution phase, with operations targeted to begin in 2027. The governance change marks the shift from project development and institutional preparation to delivery of one of Angola’s key nitrogen fertilizer projects, designed to supply both the domestic market and regional exports.

The new board consists of seven executive directors and two non‑executive directors, with a remit covering industrial project implementation, operational readiness, procurement and supply chain set‑up, financial control and local capacity building. Their role is to steer EPC delivery of the ammonia–urea units, put operating structures in place, and prepare the project for commissioning ahead of the planned 2027 start‑up.
