Arysta LifeScience, Chemtura Extend Partnership in West Africa
31 May 2013 Chemtura AgroSolutions and Arysta LifeScience South Africa have announced they are extending their cooperation in West Africa to include Arysta LifeScience’s distribution rights of Chemtura’s crop protection products.
In 2012, Chemtura granted Arysta LifeScience distribution rights for its malaria larvicide control products under the Dimilin brand name. This agreement now extends to crop protection products.
“We are delighted to extend the cooperation with Chemtura in West Africa and see this as an
important step in strengthening our leadership position in that region,” said John Barnes, Arysta
LifeScience’s business unit head of Africa & Western Europe.
“Our cooperation with Arysta LifeScience has started off well with the Dimilin range of products, giving us the basis to expand our partnership to include our crop protection products,” added Dave Cote, Chemtura AgroSolutions director, product and asset management. “We expect solid growth now that our products are part of the overall Arysta LifeScience offering in West Africa.”
Arysta LifeScience has subsidiaries in Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Niger and Cameroon. The Chemtura products will benefit from Arysta LifeScience’s extensive distribution network and regional formulation sites, which will provide the capability of producing smaller packs to expand customer reach as well as enabling better response time to changing customer needs.
