The Benin branch was only opened just over a year ago and has been noted to offer trend-forward merchandise—including clothing, household goods, electronics, toys—as well as groceries at unbeatable prices.
In keeping with her mandate of family first, Ford Mart has taken an unprecedented step by offering scholarships to 5 students in Benin City, Edo state as part of the organisation’s support to families and giving back to the society.
Group Managing Director Mr Clifford EWERE Williams explained, that this annual initiative started by celebrating children every year and now creating a platform for almost 150 children to intern and learn at the Benin branch. This year’s children’s day celebrations, the kids were exposed to our inventory and supply chain management, baking process, customer service and a host of other processes. What we have offered is an opportunity to build a career and imbibe entrepreneurship skills. It was tagged “Dignity in Labour “ and we have decided to make it a yearly event.

Mr Williams speaking further, explained that beyond the scholarships awarded to 5 kids from the total pool, we observed that not many school offer basic and practical entrepreneurship training, that is why we have decided to expand our children day initiative by creating a platform where young minds are exposed to the rudiments of business, accounting, diligence, discipline and courteous service in addition to schooling. Our aim is to support both families and government in raising tomorrow’s leaders.
