Tetra Pak, a global leader in food processing and packaging solutions, has unveiled its newly relocated Lagos office, marking a significant milestone in its mission to drive sustainable growth across West Africa. The redesigned workspace aligns with the company’s global “Activity-Based Working” strategy, emphasizing operational agility, employee well-being, and environmental stewardship.
The relocation underscores Tetra Pak’s commitment to reducing its environmental footprint while fostering innovation. The office integrates energy-saving motion sensors, 85% recycled furnishings—including items crafted from recycled beverage cartons—and paperless workflows, achieving a 30% reduction in environmental impact compared to the previous location. Advanced teleconferencing tools further minimize travel needs, supporting Tetra Pak’s ambition to achieve net-zero emissions across operations by 2030.
“This office is more than a workplace; it’s a testament to our promise to protect the planet while enabling growth,” said Mr. Haithem Debbiche, Managing Director, Tetra Pak West Africa. “By embedding sustainability into every design choice, we’re creating a blueprint for responsible business practices in the region.”
The open-plan office, inaugurated by Roberto Franchitti, Tetra Pak’s Executive Vice President of Services, replaces traditional cubicles with dynamic zones that spark cross-functional collaboration. Proximity between R&D, commercial, and operations teams accelerates decision-making, while cutting-edge connectivity tools enhance client engagement. Recently, the facility hosted a strategic session with a key customer, leveraging its seamless digital ecosystem to drive actionable outcomes.
“Our clients benefit directly from this transformation,” noted Debbiche. “A modern workspace equips our teams to deliver faster, more innovative solutions—critical in a market as dynamic as Nigeria.”
With the new office as a catalyst, Tetra Pak aims for double-digit growth in West Africa by 2026. Priorities include strengthening customer partnerships, expanding recycling infrastructure, and empowering teams through continuous learning. “We’re here to enable local producers to meet rising demand safely and sustainably,” Debbiche emphasized. “Our vision is a thriving ecosystem where industry growth and planetary health go hand in hand.”
