Our Story
1990 – 1999
Making Footprints in the Sands of Time
Launch of the Chivita flagship brand – Chivita 100% Fruit Juice. The product name, Chivita, is a derivative of “CHI” (the Company name) and “VITA” (a short form of vitality). Orange was the first variant launched.
1998 saw us enter the Snacks category with the launch of our first snack product, Beefie Beef Roll.
2000 – 2009
Innovate! Innovate! Innovate!
Go beyond being the first and focus on innovation. CHI Limited introduced a range of innovative product and packaging offerings, many of which were new to the Nigerian market.
We launch more fruit juice variants under the Chivita 100% brand; launched Chi Exotic in 4 variants; created the drinking yoghurt category with the launch of Hollandia Yoghurt; launched Nigeria’s first ever evaporated milk in aseptic packaging, Hollandia Evaporated Milk; rolled out Nigeria’s first locally produced ultra-high temperature pasteurized milk, Hollandia UHT Milk; and made our first entry into plant based dairy with Hollandia Soya Milk.
2010 – 2019
Breaking Boundaries and Creating New Frontiers
Constantly pushing the boundaries in the food and drink categories, we are consistently breaking our records to find new markets, new businesses and new ways of bringing nourishment to our consumers.
2020
Never Stopping. Never Looking Back

Chi Exotic and Chivita Ice Tea become the first CHI Limited brands to be locally produced in Cans and launched to trade in 2020. In 2021, the Can range is extended to Chivita Active Zest, a new variant of the Chivita Active portfolio.
