Katani Limited Information

Katani's corporate strategic plan takes a holistic approach in the sisal industry. The company's growth strategy encompasses issues ranging from sisal planting through to both primary and secondary sisal processing, waste management and environment, to broadening ownership and diversifying to increase the utility value of the plant. To achieve this, the company has created interrelated subsidiary companies, which, in their totality work to accomplish this.

While the processing entities act primarily as a market outlet for the SISO scheme, the primary objective of KeS is to provide farm preparation services to the SISO, and for the servicing and repair of machinery and equipment for the leaf processing entities and the secondary processing company, TANCORD (1998) Limited.
