The company stated that the growth in 2021 was supported by the positive market responses to key trade interventions introduced during the year.
Speaking on the development, the Managing Director of Dangote Sugar Refinery, Ravindra Singhvi, said: “Our impressive performance in the year demonstrates our resilience in the face of prevalent challenges, which rightly reflected in strong topline growth shown in the financial results.
“During the year under review, we concluded integration of our new 50kg packaging for the fortified and non-fortified sugar bags in the market. This refreshed our brand personality and led to a deeper connection to the Dangote Sugar brand among our valued customers and consumers, whilst sustaining our market presence and leadership with the product quality.”
