About NFRA

Established by the Government of Malawi in June 1999 and incorporated as a Trust, the National Food Reserve Agency (NFRA) plays a pivotal role in managing the nation’s Strategic Grain Reserves (SGR). With a mandate revised in 2000 to include price stabilization and oversight of grain importation and exportation, NFRA stands at the forefront of ensuring food security. By maintaining physical grain stocks and necessary funds, NFRA is a crucial entity in mitigating the effects of market failures and securing national grain requirements. As a key player in addressing food insecurity and providing emergency relief, NFRA is dedicated to safeguarding the well-being of Malawi’s population.
