First Bank of Nigeria Limited has launched a campaign aimed at helping Small and Medium Scale Enterprises to grow their businesses with diverse product and service offerings.

The bank said the move was in line with its plan to support SMEs in the country.

According to a statement by the lender, small businesses are pivotal to national development and there is need for organisations to promote sustainable growth in the segment.

The statement said, “The SME sector is replete with various industries and business models; First Bank’s package provides the right mix of products and services with professional staff designated to work with the business owner to provide flexible and dependable services, helping SMEs achieve consistent growth and success in every area of business.”

The Head, Marketing and Communications, First Bank, Mrs. Folake Ani-Mumuney, was quoted as saying, “We are determined to partner with businesses and pass on our own expertise and knowledge to small businesses across several sectors in Nigeria.

“Our experience in business spans several industries and segments. We understand the position most of our SMEs are in because we used to be in their situation and can provide valuable solutions for their business needs. We care about the path to success for our customers; we have walked this path and have developed solutions to ensure that the road to success is as stable as can be for our customers.”
