Nestlé Waters has opened a new manufacturing plant in Abaji, Nigeria. The 25 million factory will produce Nestlé Pure Life water.

It is Nestlé's most modern water processing facility in Central and West Africa.

The facility will complement Nestlé Waters' existing factory at Agbara in the Ogun State, and is part of Nestlé's wider investment plan for sub-Saharan Africa.

As well as processing water the new site will be home to a Technical Training Centre for Nigerian engineering students.

And as part of our Nestlé in Society commitments, we'll provide free access to clean drinking water from taps at the gates of the new factory to an estimated 1,000 local people.
