The Management of Benue Investment and Property Company Limited (BIPC) has issued a public alert regarding the circulation of counterfeit versions of its bread products in the market. To safeguard consumers and ensure product integrity, BIPC has rolled out enhanced security features on its bread wrappers.
The company has introduced two key security features:
1. Barcode Security Feature: Each wrapper now includes a 13-digit serial number that can be scanned to verify authenticity.
2. Positive and Negative Sign Marks: Clearly displayed on the top right edge of the wrappers, these marks help distinguish genuine BIPC bread from counterfeit imitations.
BIPC urges the public to remain vigilant, always check for these features, and scan the barcode before purchasing or consuming the product to confirm its authenticity. The company emphasizes its commitment to delivering safe, high-quality, and trusted products to customers.
In a bid to curb counterfeiting and protect public health, BIPC is calling on consumers, distributors, and retailers to cooperate in this effort. The initiative is signed by Joyce Isiaku, Head of Corporate Communications.
Stay informed and help ensure the safety of your bread purchases by adhering to these new security measures. For more updates, keep an eye on BIPC’s official channels.
