Nestlé Nigeria has announced the launch of new sustainable packaging for its popular breakfast cereal, Golden Morn, highlighting the brand’s commitment to both nutrition and environmental responsibility. This update marks a significant milestone in Golden Morn’s 38-year legacy of nourishing Nigerian families and aligns with Nestlé’s global initiative to make over 95% of its plastic packaging recyclable by 2025.
The new packaging, designed for easier recycling, is part of Nestlé’s broader efforts to reduce environmental impact and promote a circular economy. “At Nestlé, our responsibility extends beyond delivering nutritious products; it includes safeguarding our planet for future generations,” said Wassim Elhusseini, Managing Director of Nestlé Nigeria. He added that over 80% of Nestlé’s packaging in Nigeria is now optimized for recycling, with Golden Morn’s packaging transitioning from aluminum foil to a recyclable laminate.
Golden Morn, made from locally sourced maize and soya, has been a staple in Nigerian households for nearly four decades. The new 100% recyclable packaging reinforces the brand’s dual commitment to nutrition and sustainability.
“Golden Morn is more than just a breakfast cereal; it’s a brand with a purpose, dedicated to nourishing families while protecting the planet for future generations,” said Omofasa Orhiunu, Category Manager, Dairy.
The brand’s focus on local sourcing further strengthens its commitment to the Nigerian community, ensuring the freshness and quality of its ingredients while supporting local farmers and the economy.
