Rite Foods Celebrates Mothers as Pillars of Strength, Sacrifice and Nation-Building
Rite Foods Limited, one of Nigeria’s leading food and beverage companies, has joined the global celebration of Mother’s Day by paying tribute to the strength, resilience, sacrifice, and nurturing spirit of women and mothers whose daily contributions continue to shape families, workplaces, communities, and the nation.
The company also specially recognised women within its workforce who successfully combine professional excellence with the responsibilities of motherhood, describing them as symbols of dedication, compassion, and unwavering strength.
Mother’s Day, celebrated worldwide on Sunday, May 10, offers an opportunity to honour women whose commitment and sacrifices form the bedrock of thriving families and progressive societies. From raising future leaders and nurturing dreams to providing care, stability, and emotional support, mothers remain the silent force driving everyday life.
According to Rite Foods, the celebration serves as a reminder that behind many milestones and success stories are women whose resilience, determination, and sacrifices continue to inspire progress both at home and in the workplace.
Speaking on the significance of the occasion, the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Rite Foods Limited, Seleem Adegunwa, described mothers as one of society’s greatest pillars whose impact transcends generations.
He said, “Mothers embody strength, selflessness, resilience, and love. They are builders of families, shapers of values, and drivers of progress. Their ability to give endlessly, nurture consistently, and rise above challenges deserves not just recognition, but deep appreciation and celebration. At Rite Foods, we are proud to honour women and mothers whose contributions continue to inspire excellence every day.”
As a people-focused organisation, Rite Foods reaffirmed its commitment to promoting an inclusive and supportive workplace where women are empowered to thrive, lead, grow professionally, and effectively balance career and family responsibilities.
Beyond the workplace, the company acknowledged that many of life’s most memorable moments are created within the home through shared meals, quick breakfasts before school runs, packed lunch boxes, and moments of bonding and refreshment often made possible by mothers and women.
Through its portfolio of brands, including Bigi Carbonated Soft Drinks, Bigi Table Water, Fearless Energy Drinks, as well as Bigi and Rite sausages, the company said it remains committed to creating refreshing and memorable experiences for families across Nigeria.
Also speaking, the Head of Corporate Affairs and Sustainability, Ekuma Eze, commended the resilience and invaluable contributions of women within the organisation and society at large.
“The strength of women and mothers is extraordinary. Their resilience, patience, compassion, and ability to hold families together while excelling professionally are truly inspiring,” Eze stated.
“At Rite Foods, we celebrate women not only for what they do, but for who they are — the backbone of families, the heartbeat of communities, and a vital force in nation-building.”
