About Rita Tsehai

As the Head of Marketing at Flour Mills of Nigeria Plc, I lead the marketing strategy and execution for one of the largest and most diversified food and agro-allied companies in Africa. I have a passion for creating and delivering value to consumers, communities, and stakeholders through innovative and sustainable solutions. With over 20 years of experience in marketing and commercial roles, I have worked with global brands such as Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Heineken, across multiple countries and regions. I have a strong track record of launching new products and brands, developing and implementing effective campaigns, and managing complex projects and teams. I have also gained valuable insights and skills in the FMCG sector, especially in the beer and soft drink categories. I thrive in fast-paced and multicultural environments, and I enjoy coaching and mentoring others to achieve their potential.
