Overview

The Mauritius Agricultural Marketing Co-operative Federation Ltd (MAMCF) was registered on 1stMarch 1968. The creation of such an agricultural federation was   necessary following the setting up of the Agricultural Marketing Board in 1964 with a view to ensuring regular production and supply of potatoes and onions. The MAMCF established in 1968, currently regroups around 3,500 vegetable growers who are grouped into primary agricultural marketing cooperative societies, and which are scattered over the island. These cooperative planters    cultivate around   7,000 acres   of land and are producing 80% of our vegetable production. The Federation acts as a mouthpiece of vegetable planters grouped in cooperatives. The overarching goal of the MAMCF is to contribute in strengthening and modernizing the agricultural and agri-business sectors to reflect the need to subscribe to commercial principles in order to ensure that it indeed becomes sustainable as a business sector.
