Kimberly-Clark to close operations in Nigeria

Recently, Kimberly-Clark announced that it will close its business in Nigeria after almost 15 years, due to the recent reorientation of the company’s strategic priorities at a global level, as well as economic developments in the country.

The company will close its manufacturing facility and commercial office in Lagos and will no longer manufacture, market, or sell its Huggies and Kotex products in the country.

Consistent with Kimberly-Clark’s value of care, the company’s top priority will be to fulfil its obligations and ensure that employees and partners are treated with fairness and respect.
