As part of its unwavering commitment to environmental preservation, Japan Tobacco International Nigeria, a member of Japan Tobacco International, celebrates this year’s World Clean-up Day, observed annually on 20th September.

The company which has attained recognition for its leadership in corporate sustainability for climate change and water security, ensures it contributes to the sustainability of the environment and society in line with the 2024 World Clean-up Day slogan, ‘Make Room For Life.’

The leading tobacco company which has invested over $42 million to make communities more inclusive and resilient, pledges $600 million to Community Investment programmes by 2030, as part of its sustainability scheme, globally.

Headed by Mr. Thomas Adams, JTI Nigeria champions and advocates a culture of excellence in its eco-friendly schemes committed to a cleaner and healthier environment.

The company has been recognized by the Top Employer Institute as a Global Top Employer of choice in 2024 and for ten consecutive years.
