Peter Njonjo, the most senior Kenyan and African manager at soft drinks multinational Coca-Cola, has left the company after 21 years to take up the position of CEO at Twiga Foods, a fresh produce and fast-moving-consumer goods distributor.
Mr Njonjo was until Wednesday the president of Coca-Cola’s West and Central Africa business running the operations from Abuja, the Nigerian capital. He was previously general manager for the Coca-Cola East Africa franchise, overseeing 13 bottling companies that directly employed more than 7,500 people.
