EnjoyCorp Limited is truly charting a course of transformative growth through strategic acquisitions and visionary leadership. The company which is building a portfolio of Food, Beverage and Hospitality brands is committed to its mission to enrich life’s moments through a diverse portfolio of brands designed to cater to every taste and occasion.

“At EnjoyCorp, we believe life’s best moments are even better with the perfect drink. That’s why we bring together a collection of beverage brands to suit every taste and occasion. Whether it’s a celebration, a casual hangout, or a quiet evening at home, we help you find the right drink to elevate the moment,” the company said.

Last year, EnjoyCorp successfully completed the acquisition of 86.5 percent equity stake in Champion Breweries Plc, a prominent figure in the regional brewing industry. Just recently, Champion Breweries Plc, which is a subsidiary of EnjoyCorp, in line with its strategy to diversify into high-growth food and beverage categories entered into an agreement for the acquisition of all brand assets and intellectual property of the Bullet range of ready-to-drink (RTD) alcoholic and energy beverages from Sun Mark International Limited (Sun Mark).

“Our goal is to become the top choice for beverage lovers in Nigeria and beyond. As we grow, we stay committed to offering drinks that bring joy and make a positive impact on the world,” EnjoyCorp said.

At EnjoyCorp, every sip connects you to a story, a moment, or a memory—because life is meant to be enjoyed. “Whatever the occasion, we believe a good drink sparks joy, connection, and shared experiences,” EnjoyCorp said.

The recent acquisition of Bullet is structured as an asset carve-out, with the assets to be held in a newly incorporated company in the Netherlands. Post-acquisition, Champion Breweries Plc will hold a majority interest in the new business, while Vinar N.V, a Belgian entity and the majority shareholders of Sun Mark, will hold a minority stake.

“Our portfolio isn’t just a collection of beverages; it’s an invitation to explore. Are you marking a milestone? Hosting friends? Or simply relaxing? We’ve got the perfect drink for every moment. All while supporting the environment and giving back to the community,” the company said.

Passionately committed to innovation, quality, and sustainability, by fostering a culture of responsibility and community, EnjoyCorp aims to inspire its customers to explore, celebrate, and enjoy life’s moments responsibly with those who matter most.

EnjoyCorp aims to make every moment memorable with the right beverage. Each brand in EnjoyCorp portfolio reflects its values of great taste, quality, and sustainable practices.

“We don’t just offer beverages; we offer experiences driven by our core values,” it said.

The newly acquired Bullet is currently present in over 14 African markets, including Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast, DRC, and Tanzania. The Bullet Black RTD is currently the leading RTD Brand in Nigeria while the Bullet Blue energy drink ranks amongst the top six brands.

The transaction is subject to the receipt of the necessary regulatory approvals, including from the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC).

Following completion of the acquisition, Champion Breweries Plc will consolidate the financial performance of Bullet’s assets into its reporting, reflecting both immediate benefits (e.g. FX earnings, distributor leverage) and long-term cost synergies through integrated supply chain, portfolio expansion, operational integration, product development and enhanced market presence.

In February 2024, EnjoyCorp Limited reached agreement with Heineken B.V, to acquire 100 percent of its shareholding in The Raysun Nigeria Company Limited, which in turn holds an 86.5percent stake in Champion Breweries Plc, a leading regional brewer listed on the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX). EnjoyCorp said intends to keep Champion Breweries Plc listed on the NGX. Heineken will continue to support Champion Breweries for a twelve-month period after the transaction has closed to ensure a smooth transition of ownership.
