ISTANBUL, TURKEY — Imas recently completed a new 160-tpd flour mill for World Food Industry in Cameroon.

World Food Industry is one of the leading food and retail groups headquartered in Yaounde, Cameroon. Imas first completed a 160-tpd flour mill for the company in 2021.

The newest mill is located in Douala city, the finance and trade capital of Cameroon. Two types of flour are produced and will be distributed to World Food Industry’s local supermarkets and bakery chains at 40 locations within the country.

The greenfield project was completed by Imas on a turnkey basis, including production, engineering, installation and commissioning services. The production of the complete machinery and equipment was completed in six months by Imas, a very short period thanks to the production power and capacity of the company. The mechanical and electrical installation also was completed in about six months by the project planning, installation and supervision teams of Imas.

Steral, a brand of Imas, provided the steel construction of the mill building. Steral is today a very strong partner in industrial steel buildings and also has the capacity to build huge projects such as exhibition centers, hotel buildings and shopping malls. With Steral, Imas is also one of the only in-house manufacturers of steel buildings in the grain and feed milling industries.

The complete process flow in the flour mill can be managed centrally via the SCADA automation system, from wheat intake to flour packaging. The system has a real-time reporting feature showing the production amount, yield, consumption and more of the plant.

The Imas after-sales team can connect to the plant remotely at any time, for remote support services, including technical assistance, troubleshooting, and check ups.

Imas produces the whole range of grain and feed milling machinery, and builds turnkey flour, maize, and feed mills worldwide with more than 500 project references in five continents and over 100 countries.
