BUA Foods Plc, the makers of IRS Pasta, BUA Sugar, IRS Flour, and BUA Rice, has emerged as the 2024 Company of the Year at the prestigious CNBC’s Africa All Africa Business Leaders Awards (AABLA) held in South Africa.

This historic win makes BUA Foods the first Nigerian organisation to win the Company of the Year award in the 12-year history of AABLA, Africa’s largest premier business award renowned for recognising outstanding achievers in Africa’s business landscape.

The award came hours before BUA Foods was named the “Most Valuable Indigenous Food Company” at the 2024 BrandCom Award in Lagos State. In late September 2024, Marketing Edge also awarded BUA Foods as the “Customer-centric FMCG Corporate Brand of the Year” while Media Consortium named IRS Premium Wheat Flour the “Premium Brand of the Year”.

According to the leading Nigerian food company, the awards acknowledge its significant contributions to the African food industry, commitment to sustainable growth, and positive impact on the continent.

The Managing Director of BUA Foods, Engr. Ayodele Abioye (PhD.), in his acceptance speech at the AABLA award in South Africa, noted that the award is not just for BUA Foods but for the entire African food industry.

A statement from BUA Foods on Sunday quoted Abioye as saying, “We are deeply honored to be acknowledged as the Company of the Year. This recognition is a testament to our position as a leading force in the African food industry. We are proud to contribute to economic development and positively impact the continent.

“This award is not just for BUA Foods but for the entire African food industry. It acknowledges our collective efforts to bolster food security in the region, especially in the face of ongoing challenges.

BUA Foods Plc

“Just last month, we solidified our position as a global player by signing agreements with Italian and Turkish firms to expand our Pasta and Wheat production to 900,000 metric tonnes per annum and 2.5 million metric tonnes per annum respectively. This strategic move positions us to become the largest milling company in Nigeria by 2025, and ultimately Africa in the near future”.

Ayodele subsequently expressed gratitude to the organisers of the award, valued stakeholders, and employees of the company, saying their trust and loyalty have fueled BUA Foods growth.

He also reaffirmed BUA Foods’ commitment to empowering African communities through sustainable food production and distribution.

“As we look ahead, we remain steadfast in our mission to feed Africa and contribute to the region’s economic development. We will continue to explore new markets, forge strategic partnerships, and invest in innovative technologies to elevate the African food industry to unprecedented levels,” he added.

BUA Foods Plc is a leading food business with well-diversified and scalable operations producing sugar, flour, pasta, rice and edible oils. Food security is the most important mission at the heart of BUA Foods’ existence. It shapes the Company’s strategic direction and operational ethos towards fulfilling Africa’s food demands and improving the well-being of individuals and communities.

The Company owns strategically located plants across Nigeria and a cordial alliance with local stakeholders in host communities. Additionally, BUA Foods is a resilient business built on a strong brand proposition and an operator with a well-known reputation for delivering high-quality products.

BUA Foods continues to invest in modern technology for efficient food production, innovatively expanding with strategic partners across the value chain.

Headquartered and listed in Nigeria, BUA Foods is one of the most capitalised companies on the NGX Exchange and a leading consumer goods firm by market value.
