Rite Foods Limited, Nigeria’s foremost food and beverage manufacturer, has reaffirmed its commitment to advancing a sustainable food system as it joined the global community to commemorate World Food Day 2025, themed “Hand in Hand for Better Food and a Better Future.”
The company, renowned for its innovative and high-quality range of products, emphasized that food security begins with responsible production and sustainable practices. Operating from its state-of-the-art, fully automated factory, Rite Foods disclosed that 92 percent of its operations are powered by natural gas, while the remaining 8 percent is shared between solar and diesel hybrid systems, a major stride toward cleaner energy use and reduced carbon emissions.
This forward-thinking energy model, the company stated, not only minimizes its environmental footprint but also enhances efficiency, product safety, and overall sustainability in line with global best practices.
In furthering its mission to make quality nutrition accessible to all Nigerians, Rite Foods recently unveiled Bigi Flex Sausages, an exciting new addition to its growing product portfolio. Designed for the modern, fast-paced consumer, Bigi Flex delivers rich taste, high-quality protein, and convenience, making it ideal for quick meals and on-the-go nourishment.
Speaking on the company’s ongoing sustainability drive, Ekuma Eze, Head, Corporate Affairs and Sustainability, said:
“At Rite Foods, we believe food security rests on sustainable practices and strong partnerships across the value chain. Through innovation, cleaner energy, and environmental responsibility, we’re taking deliberate steps to ensure every Nigerian has access to safe, quality, and nutritious food today and for generations to come.”
Beyond production efficiency, Rite Foods continues to lead impactful environmental initiatives such as its “Rite on the Beach” campaign, a large-scale coastal cleanup drive aimed at combating plastic pollution along Nigeria’s shorelines. The project, which promotes marine protection and ecosystem restoration, directly supports the nation’s food systems and enhances community wellbeing.
Anchored on a clear sustainability philosophy, Rite Foods maintains that protecting the environment is central to ensuring food quality, safety, and availability. Through innovation, cleaner energy adoption, and eco-conscious initiatives, the company is helping to shape a healthier, more resilient future for both people and the planet.
As the world celebrates World Food Day 2025, Rite Foods has once again reaffirmed its commitment to advancing Nigeria’s food security agenda while fostering a future where nourishment, innovation, and sustainability thrive together.
