Rite Foods Limited, Nigeria’s leading food and beverage company, has reaffirmed its commitment to building a sustainable food system as it commemorates World Food Day 2025, themed “Hand in Hand for Better Food and a Better Future.”
For Rite Foods, ensuring food security begins with responsible and sustainable production. The company’s state-of-the-art, fully automated factory operates on 92% natural gas and 8% shared between solar energy and diesel hybrid energy systems, a conscious shift toward cleaner, more efficient energy use. This innovation significantly reduces the company’s carbon footprint while improving operational efficiency and product safety, reinforcing its long-term vision for sustainable nourishment.
As part of its commitment to delivering quality and accessible nutrition, Rite Foods recently launched Bigi Flex Sausages, a new and exciting addition to its growing product portfolio. Bigi Flex is crafted to meet the needs of today’s fast-paced consumers, offering great taste, superior quality, and flexible convenience for quick meals, snacks, or energy on the go. This innovation highlights Rite Foods’ dedication to providing affordable, protein-rich options that support everyday nutrition and wellbeing for Nigerians.
Beyond its production and product innovation, Rite Foods continues to drive environmental initiatives that protect ecosystems and food sources. Its flagship campaign, “Rite on the Beach,” promotes large-scale coastal cleanup activities to combat plastic and waste pollution along Nigeria’s shorelines. By safeguarding waterways and marine life, the initiative strengthens local food systems and supports healthier communities.
Speaking on the company’s ongoing commitment, Ekuma Eze, Head, Corporate Affairs and Sustainability, said, “At Rite Foods, we believe that food security is predicated on sustainable practices, partnerships with communities, and all stakeholders across the value chain. Through innovation, responsible energy use, and environmental stewardship, we are taking deliberate steps to ensure every Nigerian has access to safe, quality, and nutritious food today and for generations to come.”
Rite Foods’ sustainability philosophy is anchored on the belief that protecting the environment directly impacts food quality, safety, and availability. From its cleaner energy systems to eco-friendly programs and nutritious innovations, every effort reflects the company’s mission to build a better food ecosystem for people and the planet.
As the world celebrates World Food Day 2025, Rite Foods renews its pledge to advancing Nigeria’s food security agenda and shaping a future where nourishment, innovation, and sustainability thrive together.
