UAE of Nigeria Plc (UACN) has, for over a century, remained a foremost private enterprise and leader in the food industry. In addition to the food industry, UAC's operations also span logistics and warehousing, real estate and automobile sectors. UAC has a rich legacy of good performance, with the company posting impressive financial results that have continued to yield dividends for its shareholders.

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.
