Open Market Representative (OMR) at Sunlight Resources Limited - 11 Openings

Sunlight Resources Limited is a Food & Snack Production Company situated at Mushin axis of Nigeria, who has been in business for more 16 years. A business venture between father and son, Fun Snax began way back in 2005 when the dynamic duo first launched their light and fluffy cheeseballs, in their hometown of Lagos, Nigeria.

It was thanks to the success of these cheesy snacks that the pair then went on to design and craft new products for the range. Spending hours obsessing over new and exciting flavors, Fun Snax soon saw the launch of the brand’s ever-popular potato chips and their tangy shrimp cracker.
