Located at Aboh-Ogwashi, a scenic suburban settlement, in Aniocha South local government area, about 20 minutes drive from Asaba, Delta state capital, it is a perfect setting for agricultural revolution with her sprawling landscape, rooted in the richest of tropical African rainforest belt.

Against this backdrop, the Delta State Government has been implementing measures to establish the Agro-Industrial Park since 2015. This eventually paved the way for Commencement of Construction Works by the Contractor, Sequoia Solutions and Innovations Ltd beginning from 26th October 2020. It is projected to be completed in May 2022.By design, the park will be endowed with clustered infrastructure, facilities pertaining to power, water , security, research and training, quality assurance, sewage systems, and waste management.
