Flour Mills of Nigeria PLC has rewarded five top performing dealers with special award of 30-ton trucks and trailers. The presentation was made at a grand gala event and award night held in Lagos with over 500 distributors and dealers in attendance.
In the year under review, one of the distributors sold 1,995,485 cartons of Golden Penny Noodles. Another dealer sold 1,143,529 bags of Golden Penny Semovita while there was another who sold 1,442 trucks of Golden Penny Flour.
Seventeen trucks were handed over to the top performing dealers. The top five dealers were celebrated with the special award of 30-ton trucks and trailers which further expands their business model with primary distribution capability.
In addition to giving them the trailers, FMN will register all five top performers as transporters on its platforms and pay them every time they used the trucks for their own products or when they offered them for use for other dealers.
This year’s event with theme, ‘Breakthrough Partnering for Growth’, reflected on the rich and unique heritage the company shares with its partners and reinforced the continued commitment towards mutual profitability and growth.
The MD, Foods division at FMN, Devlin Hainsworth, explained that the company had recorded a breakthrough in its almost 60 years of doing business in Nigeria because of its approach to managing its partners.
The Group Managing Director, FMN, Paul Gbededo, attributed the brand’s success story to the loyalty of its customers and dealers whom he said, “form an integral part of how we are achieving our purpose of feeding the nation every day.”
