uac of Nigeria Plc (UACN) has, for over a century, remained a foremost private enterprise and leader in the economic advancement of Nigeria. A leading Food-Focused Company, uac operations also span logistics and warehousing, real estate and automobile sectors of the economy.

uac has a rich legacy of good performance, with the Company posting impressive financial results that have continued to yield dividends for its shareholders.

uac has successfully launched its Corporate Identity journey change, which demands a paradigm shift in the corporate culture as well the emergence of the Company as an agile, entrepreneurial, innovative, youthful and marketing-driven organisation. The Corporate Identity project has led to the mobilization of the employees to consciously align with the Company's unassailable drive towards “Doing Good” in all its endeavours.

uac's strategic focus has led to the emergence of the Company as a “Food–Focused Conglomerate.” The Company has re-aligned its food business architecture to unlock the values inherent in the various operations and achieve superior performance. In line with the initiative, the food business is now operated by the following units: uac franchising, uac restaurants, uac dairies and uac foods.

uac FRANCHISING takes charge of Marketing, sub-franchising, brand standards, intellectual property development, brand performance analysis, menu engineering, development projects/training roll out, Central Kitchen Unit recipes, supplier accreditation and approval as these relate to all the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) brands.

uac RESTAURANTS operates all the restaurant brands – Mr Bigg's, Nando's, Chicken Inn, Creamy Inn, Pizza Inn , Dial-A-Delivery and Village Kitchen. The Business Unit also undertakes site profitability, crew motivation, operational strategy, repairs and maintenance of stores and procurement of general items.

uac FOODS is responsible for the manufacturing of Snacks and CKU management at multiple locations and supply to the restaurants chain while uac DAIRIES manages the Ice cream business and new initiatives in the dairy-related categories.

The strategy for the food business also targets the conversion of existing restaurant locations to “Food Courts” – where a combination of the food brands are served - not only to enhance revenue growth but respond fast enough to the changing landscape, industry, competition and business in the QSR sector.

The Company's business portfolio includes the following profitable Companies: uacn Property Development Company Plc (UPDC), the first Company in the real sector to be quoted on the stock exchange; Warm Spring Waters Nigeria Limited, producer of “GOSSY” Spring Water. The bottling plant is located in Ikogosi-Ekiti, Ekiti State.

Following the new pensions reforms in the country, uac has registered Unico CPFA Limited, as a subsidiary of the Company.

uac's Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives target the educational sector through interventionist programmes that seek to uplift the standards in the sector and provide a more conducive atmosphere for sound academic attainment. The Company's pilot Schools Support Projects have led to the provision of various infrastructural assistance and facilities to schools in some of the geo-political zones of the country.

The Company has, over the years, directed its Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives towards assisting communities, institutions and charitable organizations and the award of scholarships.

uac's enduring drive for sustainable growth and milestone contributions to the development of the country is exemplified by its new pay-off “…doing good”.
