I Was Motivated To Start Producing Sugar After Drinking Garri In Sabon Gari, Kano – Aliko Dangote

“I Was Motivated To Start Producing Sugar After Drinking Garri In Sabon Gari, Kano”– Africa's Riches Man, Aliko Dangote.

  

"Garri is a very good food as it's affordable to everyone, to the rich and poor.

I was used to eating tuwo and Masa from birth as it's something we grew up with in the Hausa community.

My taste buds took a different dimension the day I visited Sabon Gari for some feasibility studies in a business I can venture into to expand my conglomerate.

I was offered the popular food Garri by one of my aides as a way of connecting with the poor masses. After drinking it, I realised it was really worth the hype but as an entrepreneur, I figured out it would taste better with sugar.

My Idea for producing sugar was born and so far I am happy at the acceptance by the general masses"
