Dangote Cement honoured leading distributors and business partners at an awards ceremony in Lagos.
The cement maker honoured leading partners in Lagos with luxury SUVs, cash and haulage trucks, with Kazeem Odeyeyiwa taking the top distributor award.
Dangote Cement rewards worth about Sh1.3 billion went to top-performing distributors and business partners at an awards ceremony in Lagos, Nigeria. The prizes included luxury SUVs, cash and compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered haulage trucks.
Otunba Kazeem Odeyeyiwa, chairman of Kazab Heritage Limited and Repton Group, led the award recipients. He received a new 2026 Lexus LX 700h Hybrid SUV.
The company recognised Odeyeyiwa as its largest distributor in Nigeria and sub-Saharan Africa for the third consecutive year. Other partners honoured at the ceremony included NWA ADO Multi-Biz Nig. Ltd and Twins Faja Nigeria Limited.
Dangote Cement rewards recognise distribution partners
The company also awarded 16 vehicles to key business partners: four Toyota Land Cruiser Prados and 12 Toyota Veloz SUVs. In addition, other beneficiaries received commercial transport assets and CNG-powered trucks to support logistics and cement distribution.
The 2026 Distributors’ Awards Night carried the theme “Partner for Growth”. Alongside the vehicles and cash prizes, the rewards package included cement supplies.
Senior executives presented the awards, including Group Sales and Marketing Director Funmi Sanni and National Sales Director Dolapo Alli. Lagos Regional Director Tunde Mabogunje also took part, alongside Logistics Director Abayomi Shittu and Head of Sales Capability Desmond Aregbesola.
Meanwhile, the Dangote Group continues to expand its commercial interests across Africa, covering cement manufacturing, distribution and energy. Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote founded the group, which counts cement among its flagship businesses.
In May, Dangote Cement also announced Sh15 billion worth of rewards for its top distributors and customers. That announcement recognised their loyalty and performance.
