Financial Accountant at Nigerian Eagle Flour Mills Limited (NEFM) - Flour Mills of Nigeria Plc

Nigerian Eagle Flour Mills Limited (NEFM) was incorporated in November 1979 to manufacture and market Flour and allied products like Semolina and Bran. The factory began commercial production in October 1982 with one mill.

The products of the company were well accepted by consumers, and soon, demand outstripped the installed capacity at the mill. To meet up with the increase in demand for Eagle products, the owners at that time embarked on an expansion program which led to the introduction of a second mill – ‘Mill B,’ in February 1987 at an increased capacity of 700 tons and a total workforce of about 220. Today, NEFM remains BAKERS’ NO 1 CHOICE for wheat flour and associated products in Oyo state and beyond in line with FMN’s brand promise to always deliver quality that consumers can trust.
