Engr. Aderemi Olaniyan, a former Deputy Governor of Oyo State, and Oloye Lekan Alabi, the Maye Olubadan of Ibadanland were present when Tammy and Timmy foods launched a new depot for its headline product, Smartees Vitality vegetable oil, on Saturday.
Speaking at the event, which doubles as a birthday celebration gala for the company’s founder, Adeogun Tunrayo Moslemat, Oloye Alabi lauded the celebrant for her illustrious nature.
“A few weeks ago, His Excellency reminded me that we were somewhere seven years ago and I was surprised he remembers. It’s the same way everything we do today will be history tomorrow. And history never forgets,” Oloye Alabi, who cut the ribbon on the facility, said.
Speaking further, Oloye Alabi praised the company for the quality of their products across board.
“I am not saying this to advertise her product for her because she did not even send me to do that. But the truth is that she only sells quality stuffs. Her vegetable oil products, for instance, are free of cholesterol,” he added.
In her remark, the company’s founder, Adeogun explained that the rationale behind the launch of the facility and product is to provide quality vegetable oil products for people at an affordable rate.
“The assumption is that vegetable oil products called ‘aburo’ are substandard but that’s not true. It’s the same product they called imported that you’ll find in what they call ‘aburo’. The only difference is the packaging. It’s why we are doing this.
“Smatees Vitality is here to show us that you can get quality oil at an affordable rate. Our vegetable oil product is coming from a dispenser that is of top quality and is in tandem with NAFDAC’s standard,” she noted.
She added that the recycle-friendly nature of the product also make it more environmentally-friendly than imported products.
Also present at the event were the Deputy Chief of Staff to Oyo state governor, Hon Kazeem Adeyinka Adeniyi Bibire; a gubernatorial hopeful, Chief Taofeeq Adegboyega; Mr Kunle Busari and members of ATM Foundation.
