family. I thank Nestlé and the Alagbara for believing in us.”
Nestlé Empowering Rural Women in Nigeria exemplifies Nestlé’s commitment to creating shared value in society. Since its inception, the initiative has expanded to nine locations across the country.
Beneficiaries receive training in essential areas such as entrepreneurship, bookkeeping, merchandising, and customer service skills which are vital for running successful retail operations. Each participant is also assigned a personal mentor for three months and receives product grants to help them scale sustainably.
With every new phase, Nestlé continues to support financial independence among rural women, enabling them to create better futures for themselves and their communities.
