UUBO is delighted to have advised The Coca-Cola Company
("Coca-Cola") on the sale of its 100% equity interest in
C.H.I. Limited ("CHI") to UAC of Nigeria PLC, one of
Nigeria's leading consumer goods companies.
CHI is a household name in Nigeria and a recognised leader in
the food and beverage industry. Its flagship brands,
Chivita and Hollandia, hold dominant positions in
the fruit juice and value-added dairy markets, respectively.
The transaction aligns with Coca-Cola's global strategy to
streamline operations, scale its brand portfolio, and sharpen focus
on core offerings, while continuing to invest in markets with
strong long-term growth prospects such as Nigeria.
The UUBO team was led by our Corporate Advisory and M&A
Partner, Ozofu 'Latunde Ogiemudia, with key
support from Tobechi Nwokocha, Aanuoluwapo
Odunaike, Tolulope Egbochue,
Praise Darego, and Adaobi Omosefe
Uzo. Specialist support was provided by Banking Partner,
Onyinye Okafor and senior associates,
Abolanle Ayoola and Victoria Amarachi
Agomuo.
We are proud to have supported Coca-Cola on this significant
transaction and to have contributed to the continued evolution of
Nigeria's consumer goods sector.
