Production now goes on at the new site, which has about 6,000m2 covered area while the head office complex stands adjacent to the production plant.
The new plant under construction covers an area of 5500m2. The company’s water borehole and 1,500KVA generators are in place to serve the company. The company has delivery trucks to serve the distributors spread across Nigeria. There are also sales offices of the company at Nnewi, Aba, Abuja, Kaduna, Lagos and Uyo.
