Dr. Doris Uzoka-Anite, the Federal Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, has visited Kano State to engage with Mr. Hassan Hammoud, Chairman and CEO of Mamuda Group where she promised to continue to champion industrial growth in the North’s commercial nerve centre.
This leading multi-industry company is recognized for its diverse operations across five strategic business units: Mamuda Beverages Nigeria Ltd (Pop Cola), Mamuda Agro & Allied Products Nigeria Ltd, Mamuda Foods Nigeria Ltd, Mamuda Industries Nigeria Ltd, and Mamuda Care Nigeria Ltd.
A key highlight of Dr. Uzoka-Anite’s visit was the commissioning of a new plant for Mamuda Agro & Allied Products Nigeria Ltd. This development aligns with the group’s expansion strategy and is expected to boost the production of sacks, further reinforcing the Mamuda Group’s support for the local agriculture sector.
To enhance its operations and alleviate pressure on the local power grid, the group has also invested in its own LNG power plant, generating 31 megawatts of clean energy. Additionally, the group has implemented a solar system capable of producing 5 megawatts, enhancing its energy sustainability.
Dr. Uzoka-Anite lauded the Mamuda Group for its steadfast commitment to maintaining international standards in its operations.
Each facility demonstrated strong adherence to quality, safety, and environmental regulations—essential factors for building trust and reliability within Nigeria’s industrial landscape.
The Mamuda Group also plays a crucial role in the Nigerian economy, employing over 13,000 people across its various business units. By creating jobs, fostering entrepreneurship, and supporting local communities, the Mamuda Group drives inclusive growth and prosperity across the nation.
Mr. Hassan Hammoud who welcomed Dr. Uzoka-Anite, emphasized the importance of collaboration between the private and public sectors.
He articulated a vision for enhanced cooperation, urging the minister to advocate for investment-friendly policies that could further stimulate innovation and economic progress.
“Government support through investment-friendly policies can drive innovation and economic progress,” Mr. Hammoud stated, highlighting how strategic partnerships between private enterprises and government institutions can unlock vital opportunities for development, particularly in addressing infrastructure challenges and access to financing.
The minister’s visit underscored the government’s commitment to creating a conducive environment for business growth.
