Nigeria honours advertisers on the frontline of Covid relief

The Advertisers Association of Nigeria (ADVAN) recently organised their annual ADVAN Awards for Marketing Excellence. In response to the pandemic, the association decided to present awards in only one special category and dedicate this edition to Nigerian advertisers that have been providing relief and support to people and communities in need during the pandemic.

ADVAN Community Heroes special award recipients included Heineken-owned Nigerian Breweries for their leading role in Covid relief efforts across the country and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of their employees, partners and consumers. Other winners were Guinness, Toyota, Intercontinental Distillers, Tolaram Group and Hayat Kimya.

During the awards show, ADVAN released a short documentary “Nigerian advertisers on the frontline of Covid-19 relief” showcasing different advertiser-led efforts and activities during the pandemic, from monetary and product donations to awareness and educational campaigns.
