WiiFarm, a multipurpose cooperative society, has officially launched its flagship rice distribution service hub and its fractional farmland ownership model, weekend in Uyo, the Capital of Akwa Ibom State.

WiiFarm is a member-owned agricultural cooperative that allows members to own, produce, and profit from farmland through cooperative investment models.

Mr. Akhibi Onoke Akhibi, President of WiiFarm Cooperative Society, said the initiative, which is aimed at meeting the country’s food security, is in partnership with The Factory Company Ltd, operators of the NaijaSweet rice and tutu chicken brands.

Akhibi expressed his unwavering determination to support the Federal Government, the 36 state governments, and the FCT in their food security drive, adding, “we are positioning this initiative as a transformational force in Nigeria’s agricultural sector.”

On building prosperity through the land in his keynote address, the Coop President declared, “WiiFarmCoop is more than a cooperative — it is a people-powered movement to reclaim our land, unlock rural wealth, and build a new agricultural economy based on ownership, technology, and cooperation.”

“The multipurpose farm estate is being designed to anchor The Factory Company’s backward integration strategy, connecting farm production directly to food processing and distribution.

 

Reinforcing his determination to contribute to Nigeria’s food security, he added “10,000 Hectares, one member at a time – The WiiFarm Multipurpose Farm Estate Project, a 10,000-hectare agricultural development master plan across Akwa Ibom State, is set to cultivate rice, maize, poultry, beef, and fish.”

 

Through its fractional ownership model, members gain access to deed-backed farmland units, creating a pathway for long-term asset ownership and wealth creation while feeding directly into established national food brands, Akhibi added.

 

The project is spearheaded by WiiFarmCoop in conjunction with The Factory Company Ltd and will be powered by full mechanization.
