Great Brands IconGolden Penny LogoThat Nigeria is a blessed nation-brand is crystal for everyone to see. But The beautiful part of the Nigerian story cannot be complete without the brand stories of a select few individuals and organizations that are champion brands whose aggregate value have made Nigeria Africa’s largest economy and the world’s 26th most important for investors.

Often times, people make the mistake of alluding Nigeria’s potential greatness to its natural resources and its huge population. But land, minerals and numbers count for nothing unless astutely gifted individuals and organizations properly harness, manage and appropriate the benefits of Nigeria’s assets to its teeming citizens and the rest of the world.

As Brand Nigeria marks its centenary, BRANDPOWER begins a new series to show-case the individual, corporate and institutional brands that have, despite great challenges, made positive contributions, worth celebrating, towards the progress, growth and prosperity of Nigeria

We begin this series with a special feature on the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) and Golden Penny Pasta made by Golden Penny Plc. Thiers are two dizzyingly remarkable stories.

BACKGROUND

From the creation of mankind, good food has a necessity. There was a time when we could simply go our farms or gardens nearby and pluck or harvest our staples to cook and eat. This proposition is however not possible in modern life. It is no exception in Nigeria. The modern home requires well prepared, properly packaged staple foods that will provide key nutrients and nourishment to keep the family healthy and fit enough to carry out daily tasks and be on top of each and every activity. Nigeria has long found in Golden Penny Pasta a great and reliable brand that the good people of Nigeria rely on for good feeding.

Golden Pasta, a Division of Flour Mills Nigeria PLC launched the Golden Penny Pasta Brand about two decades ago in Apapa with the Iganmu manufacturing plant commissioned in 2003 and barely a decade after, the second plant became operational in Agbara in 2012.
