The 3 mentioned are owned by 1 person.

Dufil- De United Foods Industries Limited...so your number 2 is out of it.

Northern Noodles is the branch of Dufil in the Northern part of Nigeria. Northern Noodles focuses only on the production of Indomie Noodle in the North. Dufil covers all the brand.

And the shocker is this - AVS, our Keke Napep in Nigeria, the CEO of Dufil is one of the major importers to Nigeria.

...and here I was thinking the product was non existent in these parts before 1995. I remember it like yesterday, the proliferation of the brand. It happened like wildfire. My uncles now in their late forties quickly took a liking to the product. I guess it's because they were in their early twenties then.

I have gotten tired of eating noodles, especially with all these news of it being bad for the digestive system and not really nutritious, but once a while I manage the oriental fried noodles. That's the only one I can take for now.

I also tried the sea food flovour but I don't really like it.

Indomie has been in the market since the early 70s. If its truly harmful to the health, so many kids and adults would have died of complications of eating it. I'm a staff with Dufil and I take it almost everyday for launch, even all the foreigners in the office do same. All the wrong claim are just for propaganda and a quest to drag the company down, but we keep going higher.

Nestlé Maggi 2 minute noodles was the best thing after slice bread, but Nigerians weren't so into noodles at the time so Nestlé stopped the sale.

Indomie seized the market with aggressive marketing, and the rest they say is history.

I remember my 1st time of taking indomie noodles. It was in 1992. I was in boarding school then in Abuja and a fellow student brought it from Lagos. The way we prepare it then was funny, soak the noodles in hot water, drain after like 3 to 5mins, add the spices and stir together and it was ready to eat.

I have not stopped eating indomie noodles since then. Till now, it's my best meal after drinking.

I eat indomie at least 5 to 6 days in a week. It's the only food and never tired of.

Myself and my children consume at least, a carton every week.

My best is onion flavour, because of the oil in it.

Indomie Noodles, saving life since 1992!
