Arla Foods has officially signed Nollywood actress and producer Funke Akindele as the brand ambassador for Dano, one of Nigeria’s leading dairy brands. The announcement was made at an event held in Lagos, where the actress was revealed as the new face of the brand.
The actress, who is known for her popular series “Jenifa’s Diary” and her extensive contributions to the Nigerian film industry, was chosen for her strong connection with families and her energetic public persona, qualities that align with Dano’s brand values.
“I am excited to work with the Arla Family, because Dano is a rich, creamy and nutritious brand. In everything I do, I try to be the best at it – just like Dano, so when Dano called, it was so easy to say yes, because I know this will be a fantastic partnership”, Akindele stated.
The Head of Marketing for West Africa at Arla Foods, Ifunanya Obiakor, also expressed enthusiasm about the partnership. “We are thrilled to have Akindele as the face of Dano. Her passion and authenticity resonate with our commitment to nourishing lives and enriching families. This collaboration reflects the high quality and values that Dano upholds,” Obiakor said.
This partnership aims to further promote Dano’s products as part of a healthy, balanced diet for Nigerian families. Arla Foods hopes that Akindele’s influence will help enhance the brand’s visibility and connection with its target audience.
