The origins of Cadbury Nigeria Plc. date back to the 1950s when the business was founded as an operation to source cocoa beans from Nigeria and as a precursor to enable the Company’s founders to tap opportunities for serving the local consumer market with world-famous, Cadbury-branded products. In the early 1960s, an initial operation was established to re-pack imported bulk products. This packing operation grew rapidly into a fully-fledged manufacturing operation and resulted in the incorporation of Cadbury Nigeria Limited in January 1965. In 1976, the firm became a publicly quoted company with shares traded locally on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. Cadbury Nigeria has grown to become a household name providing consumers with much-loved brands. We have the right people who help make Cadbury Nigeria a great place to work. From our initial staff-strength of 200 in 1965, Cadbury Nigeria Plc currently employs about 781 people who have chosen to build their careers with the Company.
