GARRI EXPORT

By /

What It Is
Garri is a popular West African staple food made from fermented, grated, and fried cassava tubers. It is a granular flour-like product enjoyed across the African continent and in the diaspora. It comes in different variants such as white garri, yellow garri (fried with palm oil), and ijebu garri (finely fermented and sour).

What Export of It Is
Garri is one of Nigeria’s most exported food products due to its long shelf life, ease of preparation, and demand among African communities abroad. Exported in consumer-ready or bulk packaging, garri is a staple in African shops, ethnic grocery stores, and online marketplaces across Europe, the Americas, and Asia.
