According to the firm, the products which were launched just before the holiday season, was part of its commitment towards providing high-quality products to the Nigerian market.

Also speaking on the company’s plans to expand its market reach, the Quality Control and Regulatory Manager, Okafor Ifeoma Tracy, said: “Just like our other products, this one is special because they have all the nutrients. Due to the demand we have been getting from our loyal customers, we decided to go a top notch to produce a fusion of malt and milk, which is full of vitality and all the rich goodness of malt, and milk in it.”
Further explaining the health benefits of the products, she said that the Viju Malt & Milk contains Vitamin A which is essential for healthy eyes and calcium for strong teeth, bones and good skeletal structure. It also contains protein which is an essential nutrient that helps the body to build and repair worn out tissues cells and muscles.
“The product will end the era of mixing malt and milk, apart from the fact that it has the malt extract, it has two vital nutrients like Vitamin A and B”.
