 Guinness Nigeria Plc today announced its full year results for the period ended 30th June 2015 reporting a9% increase in net sales during the year.

Commenting on the results, the Company’s Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Peter Ndegwa observed, “We delivered a 9% increase in net sales during the year in a tough trading environment largely driven by the growth in our RTD category and value beer segment.
