Fast Moving Consumer Goods, Unilever Nigeria, has said that it will be exiting the home care and skin cleansing markets to reposition its business for sustained profitability.
This was revealed in a corporate notice to the Nigerian Exchange Limited and signed by its Company Secretary, Abidemi Ademola.
The company said that it was changing its business model to accelerate the growth of the company and meet the needs of consumers, shareholders, and employees better.
