Neveah Redeems N2.04bn Series 13 Commercial Paper Issuance

Neveah Limited, a leading commodity trading company essentially dealing in the export of solid minerals and agricultural products, is pleased to announce the redemption of its obligation of the N2.04 billion Series 13 commercial paper notes issued in July 2023.

Neveah’s transformation since incorporation in 2014 has been marked by the superlative progress as revenue has grown by 445 per cent between 2019 and present day – Q3 2023, as well as the expansion of its offerings from a small commodity trading operation to a full-fledged food and agri business encompassing  semi-finished and consumer goods, commodities trading as well as logistics. This exceptional growth facilitated the successful registration of a N20 billion Commercial Paper Programme in April 2023, shortly after which the company raised N2.04 billion via its Series 13 Commercial Paper Issuance to meet working capital requirements.

Chief executive officer of Neveah, Ibidapo Lawal, stated, “Our objective is to be the foremost export company for solid minerals and agricultural products in Nigeria. 

This issuance will assist us in meeting our working capital requirements and further strengthening our capacity to realise our objectives. We extend our appreciation to all the parties involved in making this a success.”

The managing director, Investment Banking at United Capital Plc, Dr. Gbadebo Adenrele stated that:“United Capital Plc is excited to have taken on the role of Lead  Arranger in supporting Neveah Limited throughout its successful capital-raising and the settlement of N2.04 billion, which covers Series 13 of its N20 billion Commercial Paper Issuance Program. This accomplishment reflects the company’s dedication to realising its strategic growth objectives, and we will persist in leveraging our extensive expertise and skills to facilitate Neveah and other small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in accessing the capital markets for funding their growth and expansion strategies.”
