Spring Agro CEO Siddharth Mohindroo wins Agriculture Award at Forty Under 40

Siddharth Mohindroo, CEO of Spring Agro Industries, has been honored with the Agriculture and Agro-Processing category at the 2026 Forty Under 40 Ghana Awards. The award ceremony, held in Accra on September 12, 2026, recognized Mohindroo's significant contributions to commercial agriculture, rice production, and agro-processing.

Established in 2021, Spring Agro Industries focuses on farming operations, rice processing, and partnerships with smallholder farmers across Ghana. The company has set up farming ventures in various regions, including Adidome and Akuse in the Volta Region, and operates a 1,000-hectare commercial farming operation along with a rice processing facility.

Mohindroo's advocacy for increased local rice production and consumption is evident through the marketing of the Striker Gold brand, which is sold through major retail outlets and competes with imported rice brands. The company also runs an outgrower programme, engaging smallholder farmers in the rice value chain. The award underscores ongoing efforts to boost domestic food production, agro-processing, and promote locally produced food in Ghana.
