The Marketing Manager of Hayat Kimya Nigeria, Mrs. Roseline Akure Abaraonye stated that in less than 2 years of Hayat Kimya’s presence in Nigeria, the company was able to attain the number 2 position in the diaper category with its flagship brand Molfix diapers. She attributed the success of the brand to the high and consistent quality of the product, the support of Hayat’s trade partners and the great Nigerian mums.

Molfix diapers, was launched by the company in Nigeria back in 2015. Molfix has been a verified success as it rapidly attained the position of strong number 2 brand within the diaper category despite the tightly-contested market space.

Indeed, Molfix has made both consumers and customers ‘Happy today, Happy tomorrow’ with its consistent high quality and availability.

Now, with the launch of these two high quality tissue brands, Papia and Familia, the company now has three products on offer in Nigeria. The launch of the new products coincides with the completion and launch of Hayat Kimya’s $100million ultra-modern factory in Agbara where all 3 products will be manufactured for the Nigerian market as well as the West African and Central African markets.

Familia is positioned as a high quality but affordably priced family tissue. It contains no artificial whiteners, is full to the touch, and made of 100% pure cellulose. The unique composition of the tissue brands makes them environment-friendly, such that it decomposes when disposed in water.
