Grain storage is crucial for global food security, especially in emerging economies facing multiple crises. Proper storage practices are essential to reduce post-harvest losses, which account for 20-50% of grain waste in these regions. Effective storage preserves grain quality, nutritional value, and market value while combating food insecurity.
Amer-Con partners with leading grain storage manufacturers to provide innovative solutions that address these challenges. Our network offers advanced technologies, ensuring optimal temperature and humidity conditions. We also implement sustainable practices to minimize environmental impact.
By leveraging these cutting-edge storage solutions, we help our clients achieve their food security goals while reducing waste and improving overall efficiency in the grain supply chain.

Logistics platforms and intermodal transport chains are crucial for addressing food security in emerging markets. They help combat undernutrition exacerbated by economic slowdowns and climate change. While increasing production is important, reducing post-harvest waste in the supply chain is equally vital.
Investments in logistics infrastructure have dual benefits: boosting economic growth and lowering food prices by reducing transportation costs. Amer-Con, collaborating with the Regulatory Agency for Cargo Certification and Logistics of Angola (ARCCLA), is developing Logistics Platforms along major transport corridors in Angola, including the Lobito Corridor. These platforms serve as inland nodes that optimize logistics operations, fostering cost reduction, increased collaboration, and efficient intermodal transport.
Smallholder farmers are vital for feeding our growing population, yet they lack the support needed to thrive. In Angola, they represent over 90% of local production, with 70% being women-led farming families.
Our goal: Transform agriculture by empowering smallholders, ensuring sustainable food supply and storage worldwide.
