Processing at origin while serving multiple international markets also provides a natural hedge across sourcing, geographies and end-markets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scale for India and the World:<\/strong> On completion of the acquisition, the Company\u2019s processing capacity will scale to a combined <strong>1,13,000 MT<\/strong>, comprising its existing <strong>18,000 MT in India<\/strong>, the <strong>35,000 MT greenfield facility being set up at Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh<\/strong>, and <strong>60,000 MT in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire<\/strong>.
