Russian fertilizer group Uralchem JSC said on Jan. 31 the 20,000 mt shipment of NPK fertilizers it donated free of charge to Malawi under the United Nations’ World Food Programme has been fully offloaded in Mozambique’s port of Beira for final onward transit by land (GM Nov. 11, 2022).
The tons were among other fertilizer tons produced by Uralchem and Uralkali PJSC (now owned by Uralchem) that have been held in EU ports as a result of sanctions on Russia.
The Malawi shipment is part of the group’s commitment to donating approximately 300,000 mt of mineral fertilizers to developing countries free of charge, said JSC CEO Dmitry Konyaev in the group’s Jan. 31 media statement.
