TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc Reinforces Commitment to Safe, Healthy Food Through World Food Safety Day 2026

TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc has successfully concluded its 2026 World Food Safety Day (WFSD) campaign, reaffirming its strong commitment to providing safe, healthy, and high-quality food to customers across its nationwide retail network.

World Food Safety Day is a global TotalEnergies Group event, driven by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and celebrated across all affiliates worldwide. In Nigeria, TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc actively commemorates this initiative locally, translating global standards into impactful actions across its service stations, Café Bonjour, Pies & More outlets, and quick-service restaurants.

At its core, the campaign is focused on one key objective: ensuring that every customer enjoys safe, nutritious food and a consistently satisfying dining experience.

Ensuring Safe and Healthy Food for Every Customer

At TotalEnergies, food safety goes beyond compliance—it is a direct commitment to customer wellbeing. The 2026 campaign reinforced the company’s promise that every food item served is handled, prepared, and delivered under strict hygiene and safety standards.

By embedding food safety into everyday operations, the company ensures that customers can confidently enjoy meals that are not only convenient but also safe, fresh, and healthy.

A Structured and Impact-Driven Campaign

The WFSD 2026 campaign at TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc was executed through a well-coordinated programme spanning awareness, engagement, and field implementation. Activities commenced with a kick-off session to align stakeholders on objectives, expectations, and deliverables for the campaign.

A key highlight of the campaign was the live virtual podcast held on June 4, 2026, which brought together employees across the organization to discuss the importance of food safety in daily operations and customer service delivery. The session recorded strong engagement, with participants actively contributing and reinforcing the company’s safety-first culture.

As part of the podcast, a creative playlet was performed, vividly illustrating the negative impact of consuming unsafe and unhealthy food, alongside the importance of proper hygiene and safe meal preparation. The dramatized scenario helped to simplify key food safety messages, making them relatable and memorable.

Driving Awareness to Deliver Better Customer Experience

Throughout the campaign, a range of engaging tools—including trivia, safety tips, and awareness materials—were deployed to educate teams and strengthen accountability.

The initiative emphasized that “food safety is everyone’s business”, ensuring that all staff play an active role in delivering safe and satisfying customer experiences.

Key focus areas included:

  • Identifying and managing food safety risks (biological, chemical, physical, and allergenic)
  • Promoting strict hygiene practices, especially proper handwashing and safe food handling
  • Reinforcing the importance of food safety in protecting customer health and building trust

Nationwide Audits to Guarantee Quality and Consistency

To translate awareness into action, TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc conducted nationwide service station audits and visits, ensuring strict compliance with food safety standards across all outlets.

The audits focused on:

  • Adherence to HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) principles
  • Cleanliness and hygiene in food preparation and storage
  • Safe and standardized practices across Café Bonjour, Pies & More, and partner outlets

These efforts ensure that customers receive consistent quality, safe food, and reliable service experiences across every location.

Embedding Food Safety into Daily Operations

At TEMN Plc, food safety is governed by robust internal standards and global best practices. The company’s framework includes:

  • Mandatory daily self-checks at service stations
  • Appointment and training of HACCP food hygiene coordinators
  • Rigorous supplier selection processes with food safety compliance clauses
  • Regular audits supported by external service providers
  • Continuous training programmes for retail and food service teams 

This structured approach ensures that food safety is not treated as a one-time campaign, but as an integral part of daily operations.

Building Trust Through a Culture of Excellence

The success of WFSD 2026 reflects the dedication of teams across the network in maintaining high food safety standards and prioritizing customer wellbeing.

Strong participation across regions demonstrated a shared commitment to delivering safe, high-quality food and exceptional service, reinforcing TotalEnergies’ goal of maintaining 100% customer confidence.

Looking Ahead

While the 2026 World Food Safety Day campaign has concluded, TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc continues to build on its momentum by integrating key learnings into ongoing operations. The organization remains committed to continuous improvement, ensuring that every product served across its network meets the highest standards of safety and quality.
