Nigeria’s leading instant noodles brand, Indomie Noodles, has shown its support for Nigeria’s vibrant cultural richness and diversity with its headline sponsorship of the 2024 Abuja Carnival.
In a statement by the company, the festivity promotes culture, boosts tourism, and serve as a prime platform for businesses to engage with an energetic and diverse audience. Also, the firm said that the carnival, held recently, which made a comeback after an eight-year hiatus, kicked off with energy, colour, and a celebration of Nigeria’s cultural diversity.
“The opening ceremony set the tone for what was to be a riveting four-day experience as the Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, officially flagged off the carnival with a call for unity and cultural celebration. The festivities that followed began with participating states assembling at the iconic Area 1 Bridge, creating an elegant combination of traditional attire and vibrant floats,’’ the statement read.
Speaking on the headline sponsorship, Oluwaponmile Alabi, Marketing Manager for Indomie, said, “Indomie is a family brand, we are more than just a meal, our participation in the carnival is a part of our way of bringing people together, resonating with what matters most to Nigerians. Being part of this historic celebration reaffirms our commitment to fostering unity and celebrating our rich and diverse heritage. Every bowl of Indomie served at the Abuja Carnival is a symbol of our shared identity and culture.”
Alabi further stated that, “at Indomie, we believe that a brand that doesn’t evolve is destined to fade. That’s why we constantly seek innovative ways to connect with our consumers. For us, culture is the heartbeat of every Nigerian’s way of life, and it’s the perfect bridge to deepen this connection. While we’ve long been associated with mothers and children, we’re stepping into next year with a renewed focus—aligning our flavors and identity with the vibrant culture that defines Nigeria.”
