FasterCapital backs Sarl Zsdz Construction for $50M vertical agribusiness & manufacturing plan
Blida, Algeria & Dubai, UAE - Sep 16, 2025
Sarl Zsdz Construction and FasterCapital today announced a strategic partnership through the EquityPilot program to accelerate SARL ZSDZ’s $50 million integrated agribusiness and manufacturing plan across Algeria. The collaboration will combine local execution with FasterCapital’s global network, capital access and technical acceleration.
Market opportunity & problem statement
Algeria’s agribusiness and construction sectors face supply bottlenecks, dependence on imports and fragmented domestic manufacturing. Rapid urbanization and rising protein demand make poultry, feed production and local construction inputs a high-growth market. SARL ZSDZ targets white-space in domestic poultry production, animal feed and modular building components—addressing quality, logistics and cost inefficiencies while shortening supply chains.
Startup solution & differentiation
SARL ZSDZ’s plan integrates 12 poultry farms, a feed mill, three 100-hectare crop zones and three manufacturing units (poultry equipment, sandwich panels, metal frames). Vertical integration—from corn/soy cultivation to feed, hatcheries, processing and distribution—reduces input costs and improves yield predictability. Early project modeling shows staged CAPEX efficiency by producing panels and metal frames in-house, with proposed regional refrigerated logistics for market reach. Founder Slimatni Karim brings state-certified architectural expertise and local execution capability to de-risk rollout across Algeria.
FasterCapital partnership value
Through the EquityPilot program, FasterCapital will provide tailored capital-raising support, technical advisory, go-to-market strategy and access to its investor network. FasterCapital’s selective screening and track record in scaling capital-efficient startups validate SARL ZSDZ’s market fit and accelerate the company’s path to production and revenue generation. The expected collaboration timeline targets operational manufacturing and feed capacity within 18–24 months and staged farm rollouts over six years.

Growth trajectory & next steps
Near-term milestones include land acquisition for manufacturing, installation of production lines, and commissioning a feed mill within 12–24 months. SARL ZSDZ seeks $3M initial seed to complete engineering, procure equipment and initiate the first farm builds; broader $50M deployment is planned over 20 years. The long-term aim is national leadership in poultry and construction inputs with export potential to the Maghreb region.
