This year’s theme, Advancing Circular Economy and Recycling, highlights the importance of sustainability in economic development. Sonnex was proudly nominated by LAWMA as the best recycling company to visit, a recognition we deeply appreciate. During the visit, the First Lady and the boys engaged with our team, gaining valuable insights into our recycling processes and how Sonnex transforms PET plastic into food-grade resin. This experience reinforced the importance of sustainable practices and the opportunities available within the recycling industry. Sonnex Packaging Nigeria Ltd was delighted to host the First Lady and her team, and we thoroughly enjoyed sharing our knowledge and experiences with the next generation.
