| FFC-Jordan Fertilizer Company Ltd (FJFC) is a US$ 460 Million Project, one of the largest in private sector in Pakistan, producing both DAP and Granular Urea for the first time in the country. The Project is sponsored by the largest and well known industrial group of Faujis and Jordan Phosphate Mines Company.
Company History
By the early nineties, Pakistan was importing almost one million tons of urea and 800,000 tons of DAP per annum. At that time management of Fauji Fertilizer embarked on the FFC-Jordan Fertilizer Project in order to make Pakistan self-sufficient in Urea fertilizer and to drastically reduce the import of DAP fertilizer.
After the initial discussions with the Jordan Phosphate Mines Company, a preliminary feasibility was undertaken in 1992. By 1993, the detailed feasibility studies had been completed and the Lake Charles, USA ammonia plant procured for relocation. Two other new plants of DAP and urea were installed and the first production of DAP commenced in Nov 1998, followed by Urea in April 1999.
The complex is now in normal operation and supplying high quality fertilizer to the farmers of Pakistan.
Due to the slump in the international price of DAP, FJFC has temporarily shutdown its DAP plant. FJFC will resume producing DAP as the international prices improve.
