BUA Foods has introduced a new graduate training scheme aimed at building skilled manpower for Nigeria’s sugar sector.
The programme, launched through its subsidiary, LASUCO Sugar Company, targets young graduates with a background in agriculture and related fields. It is designed to prepare them for technical roles within the country’s growing sugar industry.
According to the company, the Agricultural Graduate Technical Trainee Programme will focus on practical training, giving participants hands-on experience in sugarcane farming and production processes.

The initiative is open to candidates with a degree in agriculture or a related discipline. Applicants must also have between zero and two years of work experience and must be resident in Nigeria.
This move reflects a wider push by major agro-industrial firms to strengthen local capacity and reduce reliance on foreign expertise. Nigeria’s sugar sector has continued to expand in recent years, driven by investment in large-scale plantations and processing facilities.
By investing in fresh graduates, BUA Foods appears to be positioning itself to meet future workforce needs while supporting the development of the agricultural value chain.
The company said the scheme offers young professionals an entry point into a sector that is central to food production and industrial growth. Successful candidates are expected to receive structured training that blends field work with technical knowledge.
Applications for the programme are now open, with interested candidates encouraged to apply through the designated portal.
The launch adds to ongoing efforts by private sector players to attract young talent into agriculture, a sector often seen as critical to Nigeria’s long-term economic stability.
