Nigeria is the largest producer of cassava of which 70% is processed to garri. Garri is a staple food to over 800 million people in the world. There is no household in sub Sahara Africa where garri is not consumed. Garri which is food to the rural people in under developing and developed countries has found relevance in foreign countries with the educated and privileged individuals as well.
Garri is a source of income to smallholder farmers that engage in processing but there is the potential of earning foreign exchange with proper processing and packaging.
