In an industry where quality, trust, and consistency define success, Smithola Group of Companies has continued to distinguish itself as a brand committed to excellence. Under the visionary leadership of Mr. Taiwo Oladipo, the company successfully hosted a remarkable Customer Appreciation Day—a strategic and celebratory event that not only honoured its loyal customers but also opened new doors for growth and collaboration.
At the heart of this grand occasion was the legendary Fuji maestro Abass Akande Obesere, whose enduring influence and energetic performances continue to captivate audiences across Nigeria and beyond. He was joined by the dynamic DJ Real, alongside Nollywood stars Afeez Owo and Foluke Daramola—creating a vibrant fusion of music, film, and culture.
The event was held on Thursday, March 26, 2026, at Omu Plank Market, Mushin, drawing a large gathering of customers, distributors, artisans, and entertainment enthusiasts.

*CELEBRATING LOYALTY, HONOURING TRUST*
For Smithola Paints, this event was deeply rooted in appreciation. Over the years, the brand has built a strong and loyal customer base—contractors, distributors, artisans, and homeowners—who have consistently trusted its products for durability, beauty, and performance.
This Customer Appreciation Day stood as a heartfelt “thank you” to those who have believed in the brand, supported its journey, and contributed to its growing reputation across Lagos and Ogun environments. Their loyalty has not only sustained the business but has also helped shape Smithola into a competitive force within Nigeria’s paint industry.

*A STAGE FOR RISING STARS*
In a unique and inspiring twist, the event also served as a talent discovery platform. Before the grand entrance of Abass Akande Obesere, the stage came alive with performances from emerging musicians and comedians—young, vibrant talents who thrilled the audience with their creativity and energy.
This initiative reflected Smithola’s commitment not only to business growth but also to community development and youth empowerment, offering upcoming entertainers the rare opportunity to perform before a large and diverse audience. It built excitement and anticipation ahead of the main performance, which was later crowned by the electrifying presence of Obesere.

*OPENING DOORS TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES*
Beyond celebrating existing relationships, Smithola also used the event as a strategic platform to welcome new distributors, partners, and investors into its expanding network.
With a proven track record and increasing demand, the company continues to create opportunities for individuals and businesses to become part of its success story. From dealership partnerships to large-scale distribution channels, Smithola is positioning itself as an inclusive and growth-driven brand.
According to the company’s leadership, “This is not just an event—it is an open door. We are inviting new partners to grow with us as we expand our reach and impact.”

*A BRAND BUILT ON QUALITY AND INNOVATION*
Through Smithola Investment Nig. Ltd., the company continues to deliver a wide range of premium products including Emulsion, Texcoat, Flex, Satin (Silk), Gloss, Wood Finish, and Marine Coatings—each designed to meet the evolving needs of modern construction and finishing.
These products have steadily gained visibility in the market, earning recognition for their durability, aesthetic appeal, and value for money. As a result, Smithola Paints is fast becoming a preferred choice for both residential and commercial projects.

*A CELEBRATION WITH PURPOSE*
Packaged by Falbatini Media Network, the Customer Appreciation Day was more than a festive gathering—it was a carefully curated experience that blended gratitude, brand visibility, and business expansion.
As the event concluded, it stood as a powerful moment of connection—for loyal customers, a mark of appreciation; for emerging talents, a stage of opportunity; and for new partners, an open invitation into a thriving business ecosystem.
