NESCAFÉ has strengthened its retail presence in Oyo State with the launch of a new kiosk at Ojo Bus Terminal in Ibadan, positioning the brand closer to commuters, drivers and traders who begin their daily activities at the bustling transport hub.

The move by Nestle Nigeria  through its out-of-home division, Nestle Professional, is aimed at expanding access to its coffee products in high-traffic locations, particularly within transport terminals where thousands of commuters converge daily.

Located within the busy Ojo Bus Terminal, the kiosk offers popular variants including NESCAFÉ 3-in-1 Original and NESCAFÉ Classic, with plans underway to introduce MILO to cater to a broader consumer base.

Speaking on the development, Manager of the Bus Terminal, Adisa Olumide, described the addition as a value-enhancing service for passengers and operators.

“Having NESCAFÉ available right here in the terminal has added real value to the daily experience of commuters and operators. Passengers can now access quality coffee just steps away from their departure points without leaving the park,” he said, noting that feedback from customers has been largely positive.

Nestlé Professional Channels Manager, Ibraheem Awelenje, said the initiative aligns with the company’s strategy of delivering beverage solutions to Nigerians wherever they are.

“For us at Nestlé Professional, this reflects our continued commitment to delivering quality beverage solutions to Nigerians even on the go. NESCAFÉ has always been about empowering strong starts, and this activation strengthens that connection in a meaningful and accessible way,” he said.

Category Manager for Coffee, Jean-Pierre Duplan, added that situating the kiosk at a major transport hub underscores the brand’s focus on everyday accessibility and relevance.

Beyond product availability, the initiative also supports entrepreneurship through Nestlé’s My Own Business (MYOWBU) scheme. The kiosk is operated by a local entrepreneur who transitioned from being an attendant for over a decade to becoming a business owner under the programme. The outlet has created two direct jobs, with ongoing training in hygiene standards and business management.

Sustainability measures have also been incorporated into operations, including the use of recyclable cups and training on responsible waste disposal practices.

With the new kiosk at Ojo Bus Terminal in Ibadan, NESCAFÉ continues to deepen its presence in everyday, high-traffic environments, reinforcing its position as a go-to beverage brand for Nigerians on the move.
