Rite Foods Limited has been honoured at the National Sustainability Achievement Awards 2026 in recognition of its commitment to sustainable manufacturing, product innovation, environmental stewardship, and responsible corporate leadership.
The leading Nigerian food and beverage manufacturer received the awards following recommendations by the Awards Technical Committee, which named the company Best Food Processing Carbonated Drink Formulation and Clean Energy Company of the Year 2026.
Organised by ESG Impact Consulting Limited, the National Sustainability Achievement Awards recognise organisations that demonstrate measurable commitment to sustainability by balancing business growth with environmental responsibility and social impact. According to the organisers, recipients are assessed based on impact, environmental stewardship, and contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The awards recognise Rite Foods’ sustained investment in world-class manufacturing, advanced technology, energy-efficient operations, product quality, and environmentally responsible business practices. The company said sustainability remains at the core of its operations, guiding its production processes, resource management, innovation, and stakeholder engagement.
As one of Nigeria’s leading indigenous food and beverage manufacturers, Rite Foods has continued to strengthen its market position through premium-quality products, consumer-focused innovation, state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, and a corporate culture centred on excellence, integrity, and sustainable growth.
Reacting to the recognition, the Managing Director of Rite Foods Limited, Seleem Adegunwa, described the awards as an endorsement of the company’s long-standing commitment to delivering value to consumers while protecting the environment and contributing to 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 investing in cleaner technologies, improving resource efficiency, driving operational excellence, advancing environmental sustainability, and implementing community-focused initiatives that create lasting value.
The latest recognition further strengthens Rite Foods’ reputation as an innovation-driven manufacturer committed to quality, environmental responsibility, and sustainable value creation. It also underscores the company’s growing influence in advancing sustainable food and beverage manufacturing in Nigeria.
The awards add to a growing list of accolades for the company. Rite Foods recently won the Best Foods and Beverage Brand Award at the Global Brands Awards organised by the United Kingdom-based Global Brands Magazine.
The recognition also follows Adegunwa’s emergence as Industrialist of the Year 2025, an honour conferred by Vanguard Media Limited in recognition of his leadership, entrepreneurial vision, and contributions to Nigeria’s fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry.Copyright TRUSTAFRICA NEWS.
