We are proud of our achievements in the last six decades. We know the journey has often been turbulent, but we will continue to demonstrate the resilience that we are known for and keep offering value to our shareholders.
“I express my sincere gratitude to all our employees, past and present, for believing in the vision of Cadbury Nigeria, and for making the Company a household name in Nigeria. I would also like to thank our suppliers, business partners, shareholders, and other stakeholders in the business, for their loyalty.
