New York, NY (1888PressRelease) July 10, 2025 - FanMilk PLC, a leading food production company and a household name in the West African region, has reaffirmed its dedication to delivering healthy, indulgent, and sustainable nourishment to millions of consumers across the continent. As part of its ongoing mission to provide quality dairy and plant-based products, FanMilk continues to deepen its footprint in Ghana, Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Togo, and Burkina Faso not just as a food brand, but as a partner in well-being and planetary care.

For over six decades, FanMilk has earned trust through its unique ability to bring refreshing nutrition to both urban and rural communities. Today, the company remains unwavering in its resolve to offer products that cater to the evolving needs of its diverse consumer base from children seeking daily refreshment to health-conscious adults looking for nutritious and affordable alternatives.

At the heart of FanMilk’s operations lies a bold purpose: to foster a food revolution in West Africa. This purpose goes beyond the plate it is deeply rooted in the belief that healthier people make for a healthier planet. Aligned with the global vision of Danone’s One Planet, One Health initiative, FanMilk is pushing boundaries to redefine what responsible food production looks like in the region.

"We believe food has the power to create meaningful change not just in individual lives but across entire communities. At FanMilk, we are not only nourishing bodies, we are nurturing futures," says Yewande Adeoye, Corporate Affairs Director at FanMilk West Africa. “Every FanMilk product carries with it a promise to deliver joy, nutrition, and sustainability, hand in hand.”

As the company continues to expand its reach, it is also accelerating efforts to become one of the first multinationals certified as B Corp™ in West Africa by 2025. The B Corp™ certification is globally recognized for businesses that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Achieving this status will not only affirm FanMilk’s commitment to ethical business, but also position it as a pioneer of inclusive, sustainable growth within the African food industry.

FanMilk’s broad portfolio spanning yogurt drinks, frozen treats, and plant-based options reflects its commitment to inclusion and innovation. The brand's offerings are carefully developed to match both local tastes and global nutritional standards, ensuring that every product is as nourishing as it is enjoyable. With growing consumer demand for plant-based nutrition, FanMilk is also investing in new product development to support healthier lifestyles and diversified diets across the region.

FanMilk’s contribution to local economies is another key pillar of its identity. The company works with a wide network of local distributors, vendors, and micro-entrepreneurs, enabling income generation across all five of its operating countries.
From tricycle vendors on city streets to community-led retail partnerships, FanMilk’s model not only creates access to good nutrition but also supports livelihoods and builds economic resilience.

Additionally, the company is actively engaging in environmental sustainability practices from optimizing production processes to reducing plastic use and improving waste management systems. FanMilk is working toward a future where every stage of its value chain supports the health of both people and the planet.

Looking ahead, the company is optimistic about what the future holds for food innovation in West Africa. As dietary habits shift and awareness about health and sustainability deepens, FanMilk is strategically positioned to lead the charge not as a distant multinational, but as a brand rooted in the cultures, challenges, and aspirations of the people it serves.

"Our journey is just beginning,” adds Yewande Adeoye. “We are not just building a brand. We are creating a movement one frozen treat, one nutritious sip, one responsible choice at a time.”
