The company’s 2021 financial year result shows that it recorded net revenue of N437.20 billion against the N337.01 billion recorded in the previous year.

“As a company, we are committed to delivering values to our stakeholders, people, community, trade partners, consumers, and most especially our shareholders by continuing to deliver good financial results and give good returns on investments despite the challenge economic and operating environment,” Essaadi stated.
