Rite Foods Bags National Sustainability Achievement Award for Clean Energy, Product Innovation

Rite Foods Limited has received the National Sustainability Achievements Awards 2026, earning recognition for its commitment to sustainable manufacturing, clean energy adoption, product innovation, and environmental responsibility in Nigeria's food and beverage industry.

Rite Foods Limited has been honoured with the National Sustainability Achievements Awards 2026 in recognition of its outstanding contributions to sustainable manufacturing, environmental stewardship, product innovation, and responsible corporate leadership.

The company secured the prestigious recognition after the Awards Technical Committee selected it for the Best Food Processing Carbonated Drink Formulation and Clean Energy Company of the Year 2026 awards.

Organised by ESG Impact Consulting Limited, the National Sustainability Achievements Awards celebrate organisations that have demonstrated measurable commitment to sustainability by successfully balancing business growth with environmental responsibility and positive social impact. According to the organisers, recipients are assessed based on key indicators, including environmental stewardship, impact, and contributions towards achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The latest recognition underscores Rite Foods' sustained investments in world-class manufacturing, advanced production technology, energy-efficient operations, and environmentally responsible business practices. The company said sustainability remains at the core of its operations, influencing every stage of its value chain, from production and resource management to innovation and stakeholder engagement.

As one of Nigeria's leading indigenous food and beverage manufacturers, Rite Foods has continued to strengthen its position in the industry through premium-quality products, consumer-focused innovation, modern manufacturing facilities, and a corporate culture anchored on excellence, integrity, and sustainable growth.

Speaking on the award, the Managing Director of Rite Foods Limited, Seleem Adegunwa, described the recognition as a validation of the company's unwavering commitment to delivering value to consumers while protecting the environment and supporting national development.

"This recognition inspires us to continue raising the bar in responsible manufacturing, innovation, and sustainable business practices. At Rite Foods, sustainability is not simply an initiative; it is a guiding principle that shapes our operations, our investments, and our vision for the future," Adegunwa said.

He reaffirmed the company's commitment to increasing investments in cleaner technologies, resource efficiency, operational excellence, environmental sustainability, and community-focused initiatives designed to create long-term value for future generations.

The award further strengthens Rite Foods' reputation as a forward-looking Nigerian manufacturer committed to innovation, quality, environmental responsibility, and sustainable value creation. It also reflects the company's growing influence in advancing sustainable food and beverage manufacturing in Nigeria and across Africa.

The latest accolade adds to a growing list of recognitions for the company. Rite Foods recently won the Best Foods and Beverage Brand Award at the Global Brands Awards organised by the UK-based Global Brands Magazine.

The honour also follows the recognition of Rite Foods' Managing Director, Seleem Adegunwa, as Industrialist of the Year 2025 by Vanguard Media Limited for his leadership and contributions to Nigeria's fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector.
