CASE BRIEF & WORK

Ammani Farms and Agro-Allied Limited (Sai Ka Gani) is a Nigerian agricultural company with 3,000 hectares of farmland where various crops like Maize, Rice, Sorghum, Millet, Beans, Sugar Cane, Soya Beans, Groundnut, Guava are cultivated and livestock are reared. Averagely, the company produces 15,000 tons of maize yearly which is used to process their Maize Flour (Garin Masara) product that is sold in markets across Nigeria, Chad, Niger, and Benin Republic; their goal remains to provide healthy food for the family. Currently, the company is being run by Alhaji Aminu Garba Ammani and they also help other farmers in the areas of Consultancy and Farm Infrastructure Management while providing jobs for over 500 people to alleviate poverty in the country.

The Task at Hand

Ammani Farms and Agro-Allied Limited has been in existence since the 1970s but before they contacted us, they had no online footprint. The farm was undergoing some renovation and the company needed an effective means to showcase their Maize Flour to customers and prospects, especially those in other regions of the country apart from Katsina State where they are based. Most importantly, they needed us to take pictures of their farm, products, staff, structures, animals, and other content that will be used to promote them on social media.

How We Helped

Like every other project, this also required proper planning. Our Digital Marketing team began by creating a brief containing our proposed strategies. In line with our client’s budget, we selected the most cost-effective strategies which included Responsive Website Development and Design, Social Media Strategy, Management, and Advertising,  Google Display Ads and Search Marketing, Content Development, and SEO. Before we began to implement the strategies, we created a Gantt Chart where we divided the project into these 4 broad stages: Project Conception, Project Definition and Planning, Project Initiation, Project Performance/Monitoring; we also identified the timeline for each activity.

Our photographer was sent to Ammani Farms in Katsina State on two different occasions to capture the farm. Simultaneously, we set up all their social media accounts, email address, and developed a simple but responsive website with 6 pages where people can learn more about the company and see what products are available. A three months social media editorial calendar was created to guide the team on what content to put out daily. We reclaimed Ammani Farms on Google My Business, Connect Nigeria and other business inventory platforms. Their website housed their blog and our Copywriter created blog posts to educate visitors on agricultural practices used by our client, as well as other enlightening content. Social Media and Google Display Ads campaign were run and monitored with the objectives of increasing awareness and getting people to visit their landing page.
