Nigerian Breweries to expand operation in Enugu – MD

The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian Breweries Plc, Mr Jordi Borrut Bel, on Thursday said that the company was concluding plans to expand its operational capacity in Enugu State through the introduction of a multi-billion-naira business project.

Bel who spoke when he led a delegation on a courtesy call to Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of the state said that project proposal was already before the board of the company for approval.

He commended the governor for providing an enabling environment for businesses to thrive in the state, adding that the network of roads constructed by the administration within and around their host communities at 9th Mile Corner, and other sustained efforts had enhanced security of lives and property.
