Africa is endearing. It is home to diverse cultures. Rhythmic dances, rich cuisines, flamboyant textiles, interesting folklores are woven into the fabric of the continent.
The Africa Day Celebration, a commemoration of the continent’s progress, unity and culture which is held every May 25th, has always provided a platform to drumbeat her uniqueness.
Hence, Olam Agri, a market leading, differentiated food, feed and fibre agri-business with a global origination footprint, processing capabilities and deep understanding of market needs built over 34 years, rolled out the drum to celebrate the continent at its Lagos head.
Drums rolled, cultural songs echoed, staff members clad in traditional attires danced excitedly and cheered with impressive energy, proudly displaying the colours of their heritage, reflecting the agribusiness’ belief in unity, shared identity and the enduring spirit of Africa.
