Reliance Consumer Products Limited (RCPL), the FMCG arm of Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), has signed a definitive agreement to form a majority-owned Joint Venture with Tropical General Investments (TGI) Group , a leading business conglomerate in Nigeria. This partnership, subject to customary legal and regulatory clearances, will significantly expand RCPL’s global footprint by establishing a strong presence in one of Africa’s largest consumer markets.

Through the joint venture, RCPL will introduce a wide range of its FMCG portfolio to consumers in Nigeria, leveraging TGI's established FMCGs manufacturing and distribution experience and network.
T. Krishnakumar, Director, Reliance Consumer Products Limited, said, “The Joint Venture with TGI Group will be a pivotal milestone in RCPL’s journey towards becoming a global FMCG player. Our mission is to establish RCPL as a leading global FMCG company from India and offer global quality products at affordable prices, and this will be instrumental in expanding RCPL’s market presence globally as we enter the crucial market of Nigeria. TGI Group is a diversified and trusted partner, and their deep expertise and decades-long presence in sectors such as FMCG, culinary, and agribusiness will be invaluable as we scale our operations in the region.”
