P&G as a global company is over 170 years old – this makes it older than most UN member countries in the world and certainly older than almost every multinational company. Indeed, worldwide, it’s the world’s leading manufacturer of high quality consumer goods. With over 300 brands sold in over 160 countries, 4.2 billion times a day P&G brands touch the lives of people around the world.
In Nigeria, P&G is 18 years this month and within this span of time, P&G has evolved into a company with a strong portfolio of leading brands such as Always Sanitary Pads, Ariel Detergent, Pampers diapers, Vicks Throat Drops, Gillette personal care products, Duracell batteries, Oral B toothbrushes and Bonux Detergent.
In this interview the Managing Director, West Africa of the company, Manoj Kumar, revealed the secret of the company’s success and its reason for pioneering social responsibility to Nigeria community.
Congrats on your 18th anniversary, how is the journey so far
We have invested well over N10 billion ($87 million) in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities. We started local production of our Always sanitary pads in 1993, expanded into producing Pampers diapers and Vicks throat drops in 1994. In 2002, we built a new Pampers Diaper factory to produce an upgraded Pampers product. In 2004, we commissioned an ultra modern unique Always Sanitary Pads line in Ibadan. In 2006, we commissioned a new world-class Detergent factory in Ibadan. It is worth noting that this factory is P&G’s first of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa and I am proud to say that its Quality Assurance laboratory is judged as one of P&G’s best in the whole of Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa. Also, over the past two years, we have further expanded production capacity across all of our Pampers, Ariel, Always and Vicks lines.
We have a business office in Senegal and distributors across West Africa in countries such as Ghana, Cameroon and Cote D’ Ivoire and Nigeria has become our business hub for the entire West Africa region as we expand into all West African countries.
At P&G, we are dedicated to supporting children-in-need through our global social responsibility platform, Live, learn & Thrive – focusing on the development of children in need between the ages of 0 – 13.At P&G we consider our people to be our biggest asset and in Nigeria we have grown to be leaders in technology transfer and capability building
We employ about 1800 people either directly or indirectly in our general office, manufacturing plants, distribution, logistics, advertising etc. It is worth noting that 95% of all our managers are highly talented Nigerian men and women working here in Nigeria but also on international assignments at other P&G locations.
We are dedicated to local employee development with a budget of over $l million per year for local and international training and on-the-job coaching.
We have created over 120 new successful entrepreneurs with sustained training and marketing support in rural and semi-urban areas over the past 5 years.
This is a very exciting time in P&G’s history in West Africa.
Why is it exciting? … because we have a very ambitious investment plan to expand P&G’s business in this region.
On a global level, Africa is a major focus for P&G and within Africa Nigeria is among the fastest growing markets. Its strong, dynamic and growing population – currently over 140 million people is an enormous source of strength and potential wealth.
