The Mauritius Commercial Bank Limited (MCB) has approved a strategic financing package for Invictus Investment Company PLC (ADX: INVICTUS), a major agro-food enterprise operating across the Middle East and Africa.
The facility, structured as an acquisition finance and revolving credit package, is designed to accelerate Invictus Investment’s expansion into new markets while reinforcing its working capital as the company scales operations.
The transaction deepens the longstanding partnership between MCB and Invictus Investment and reflects a shared commitment to advancing food security, value creation, and efficient trade flows into, within, and out of Africa.
The financing will give Invictus Investment the flexibility required to expand its footprint in food processing, logistics, and distribution, while supporting the growth and consolidation of a portfolio of resilient FMCG and value-added food assets serving regional and local markets.
Invictus Investment CEO Amir Daoud Abdellatif welcomed the agreement, noting the confidence it signals from financial partners.
“The financing agreement with MCB underscores the confidence our partners have in Invictus Investment’s financial and operational performance and our ability to deliver sustainable growth and value creation. It gives us greater flexibility to optimise our capital structure and continue expanding across high-growth markets, and supports our vision to develop a fully integrated enterprise that contributes to food security in the Middle East and Africa.”Abdellatif said.
“We see this as an important step towards creating a broader network of partners at multiple levels that are working together to deliver lasting value for communities and build long-term food resilience across regions,”
MCB CEO Thierry Hebraud emphasised that the partnership fits within the bank’s wider continental strategy. “The relationship with Invictus Investment is of strategic value for us, as it aligns well with our willingness to develop long-lasting relationships with multinationals doing business in Africa. This important financing package which has been extended to Invictus Investment highlights MCB’s objective to support agro-processing players involved in food security across the continent. It also demonstrates the bank’s ability to structure sophisticated financing solutions to support its customers and their ecosystems, while using finance to create a sustainable future for the clients and communities we serve,” Hebraud said.
