Tseai Energy Unlimited begins
Agriculture, processing and renewable-energy concepts are developed with Sierra Leone at the center.
OUR STORY
Our roots. Our next chapter.
Vitel Farms is a Sierra Leonean agribusiness. Cassava is the current flagship inside a broader long-term platform.
THE LINEAGE
From Tseai Energy Unlimited to Vitel Farms.
Vitel’s story reaches back to Tseai Energy Unlimited (TEU), a Sierra Leone-focused agriculture and renewable-energy venture founded by Trevor Young around 2009.
Historical records document Kambia-focused work across agriculture, processing and farmer-market systems. That work paused; Vitel Farms is the next chapter.
History standard: historical facts establish lineage. They are not presented as current Vitel operating scale.
FOUNDER
Trevor Young
Trevor Young founded the predecessor venture and is leading the Vitel Farms rebuild. The through-line is practical: improve how Sierra Leonean agriculture connects production, processing, farmers and markets.
Cassava is the current focus because it already has national reach and multiple market pathways. The aim is to prove a commercially sound system before expanding the Vitel platform further.
FROM THE ARCHIVE
Historical artifacts, labeled as history.
These materials document TEU’s history. They do not represent current Vitel operations.
Kambia-focused agricultural work
Historical correspondence and project materials document agricultural-development and processing activity.
Cassava becomes the focus
Research and business-planning materials reposition the venture around cassava farming, processing and markets.
Vitel is reactivated
The strategy is rebuilt around verification, farmer networks, market-led production and measurable cassava value creation.
HOW WE OPERATE
Commercial discipline with public accountability.
Evidence
Claim only what can be supported.
Markets
Produce toward real demand.
Farmers
Build with independent producers.
Economics
Scale what can sustain itself.
Sustainability
Pursue resilience and circular value where it makes technical and commercial sense.
Transparency
Separate history, current operations, plans and ambitions.
WHY CASSAVA NOW
One crop. Full focus. A larger company behind it.
More than 300,000 Sierra Leonean holdings grow cassava. Its reach and market pathways make it a strong first platform for Vitel.
