I spent the day with Soulmate Industries Limited. Soulmate is the largest wholly indigenous hair beauty brand in sub-Saharan Africa. The Founder and CEO, Chief Sir Ndukwe Osogho-Ajala, is our big fellow FUTOite who took his university project in FUTO to build a multi-billion naira empire. To all of us from FUTO, he remains a legend, offering support. When I set up a shop in Nigeria while a student in the Engineering Lab of the Johns Hopkins University, Soulmate was the first client that prepaid for our services. Today, Soulmate remains a client – and we are very thankful. I must confess that I have never seen a better industrial microbiology lab in Nigeria to what I saw today – very brilliant young people building this nation. #BelieveInNigeria
Soulmate Industries Limited (RC 204468), commenced production of hair care products on January 8, 1992. The company, since its inception a little over two decades ago, has diligently pursued technical excellence and produced high quality products that competes favourably with any brand across the globe. Over the years, Soulmate has invested heavily in research and this investment has assisted us in gaining public recognition as producer of high quality products.
