“To grow our business, we must constantly create value in terms of quality product and service, competitive pricing and depositing in consumers’ emotional bank accounts in order to become their preferred choice of brand at the point of purchase.”
Speaking further, she said as a business, the management of Dangote Cement recognises the importance of every member of its value chain, distributors; wholesalers; and retailers, and have invested in growing their businesses through various empowerment schemes.
She noted that every promo bag of cement contains a scratch card carrying winning items, adding that the promo cuts across all Dangote Cement’s brands, which include 3X, Falcon and BlocMaster in target sales of about 70.1 million bags of cement.
