Vision
Ilera Group aims to establish itself as an A-to-Z Agro business group in several fields where each division executes a vertical integration to be able to convert pure raw materials into end products.
The objective is to build both a B2B sales channel (selling to other factories that further processes our products) and a B2C sales channel to sell our consumer goods and products.
The vision behind the group’s Chairman is to benefit from Nigeria’s vast natural raw material resources. Contrary to general practices in the country, the company’s goal is to further process these resources in order to create value versus the trading businesses.
Furthermore, the company’s mission is to :
cater to the growing population of Nigeria by locally producing high quality products. This will reduce imports which will majorly benefit the Nigerian economy.
Benefit from the high quality and lower cost production in Nigeria to cater to both local and international manufacturer needs.
