New product adds more beef content and targets younger consumers

NIGERIA – Rite Foods Limited has launched a new product into the Nigerian snack segment with the introduction of the Bigi Flex Sausage Roll.
The product is positioned to attract younger consumers, particularly Gen Zs and young adults, who are increasingly seeking variety and adventurous food options.
According to the company, Bigi Flex contains more beef content compared to existing sausage rolls, with each bite offering a stronger taste designed to connect with changing consumer preferences.
The launch follows the company’s broader strategy of creating snacks that reflect consumer lifestyles and offer options that are easy to consume on the move.
Seleem Adegunwa, Managing Director of Rite Foods Limited, said the new sausage roll was developed with nutrition and convenience in mind, describing it as a snack that balances taste, quality, and portability.
He added that the Bigi Flex is intended to serve consumers who want filling products without paying extra for premium offerings.
The company explained that the addition of Bigi Flex aligns with its efforts to expand its sausage product range while keeping prices stable despite new ingredients and recipes.
Rite Foods has invested heavily in its factory in Ososa, Ogun State, where it operates advanced production facilities that enable it to maintain consistency across its food and beverage lines.
The facility has played a key role in strengthening the company’s presence in the competitive sausage roll category, where taste and affordability are key drivers of consumer choice.
By introducing the Bigi Flex Sausage Roll, Rite Foods is continuing a series of product developments aimed at meeting consumer demand for more options in the ready-to-eat segment.
The company’s efforts in the sausage market have previously been recognised, with its products receiving the award for “Best Value for Money – Sausage Brand” in 2023.
Industry analysts note that introducing new products such as Bigi Flex allows companies like Rite Foods to sustain consumer interest in a market where price sensitivity remains a critical factor.
As competition in Nigeria’s snack industry continues to intensify, the rollout of Bigi Flex indicates Rite Foods’ intention to retain consumer loyalty while appealing to emerging preferences among younger demographics.
The product is already available across retail outlets nationwide, providing another option for consumers seeking ready-made snacks at an accessible price point.
