Tanzania: Tanzania Breweries to revive its Moshi-based malting plant

Tanzania Breweries Ltd (TBL) will revive its Moshi-based malting plant next year after suspending operations in 2017, IPPMedia reported on July 18.

Upon resumption, its barley uptake will be increased progressively to 30,000 tonnes a year from 15,000 tonnes previously, TBL agro-based raw materials specialists said at the company’s farmers’ field day held at Monduli Juu in Monduli District, Arusha Region.

Joel Msechu, a specialist with the firm, said the brewery halted operations at the Moshi plant due to water and electricity pricing, relating to outdated technology then installed at the plant.

With improved technology, a resumption of operations is set for next year, diminishing running costs and doubling barley processing compared to earlier levels, he stated.

The revived plans will take up to 12,000 tonnes of barley next year, reaching 18,000 tonnes in 2024 and finally attain the projected 30,000 tonnes a few years later, he said, a situation enabling barley farmers to step up production as TBL will be enhancing purchases and empower them in various ways.
