In an impressive show of appreciation and partnership, Lafarge Africa Plc. has concluded its Retail Energizer Promo by rewarding its dedicated retailers and block makers with valuable gifts, including 43” Smart TVs, 90-liter table refrigerators, and 50kg bags of rice. This generous gesture was part of a vibrant reward event marking the end of a six-week loyalty program, spanning across key market clusters in Lagos and the South West Region.
The Retail Energizer Promo, which concluded in September 2023, was designed to acknowledge and incentivize retailers who consistently supported Lafarge products. The program was structured to target retailers across three distinct bands, setting a minimum order quantity (MOQ) for six consecutive weeks to qualify for the rewards.
