Global health and wellness company NeoLife has disclosed that it paid a total of N31bn to its Nigerian distributors in 2025, a sharp increase from the N18bn paid in the previous year, highlighting strong growth in its local operations.
The payout was announced on Friday at NeoLife’s RISE meeting held in Lagos, an annual flagship event that opens the company’s business calendar and brings together distributors from different parts of the country.
Speaking at the event, Vice President, Field Development, West Africa, Olusanmi Asalu, said the significant rise in payouts shows the expanding scale of NeoLife’s business in Nigeria and the increasing earning potential within its distributor network.
“In 2025, we paid out a total of N31bn to thousands of NeoLife distributors across Nigeria,” Asalu said. “That figure rose from N18bn in 2024 to N31bn in 2025, showing that our business is getting bigger, bolder, and brighter.”
Asalu urged distributors to remain focused on ethical business practices and long-term growth, stressing that sustainability depends on integrity and full compliance with company standards.
“This is the time to build the right way to build with integrity and with a long-term vision at heart,” he said. “When we build with integrity, success follows. As long as we continue to build honestly and correctly, this business has no limit to what it can pay out.”
NeoLife operates in more than 50 countries worldwide and offers a range of nutritional supplements, weight management products, and eco-friendly home care solutions. Nigeria continues to rank among the company’s key growth markets in Africa.
Asalu explained that the RISE meeting is part of a structured series of events organised yearly to support distributors and monitor performance. According to him, NeoLife holds eight RISE meetings across the country at the beginning of each year, followed by a Mid-Year Rally in July to review progress and recognise achievements from the first half of the year.
He added that the company also organises an Impact Summit at the end of the year, which showcases cumulative achievements recorded over the year, alongside monthly opportunity meetings aimed at strengthening distributor engagement and business development.
During the Lagos meeting, NeoLife also restated its policies on ethical promotion and proper brand representation, following concerns around misleading product claims and unauthorised sales channels.
Director of Field Support, Nigeria, Adesina Mustapha, cautioned distributors against misrepresenting the company online or presenting themselves as official spokespersons.
“When using any social media platform, it is important to remember that you are not only representing yourself but also NeoLife as a company,” Mustapha said. “We like to maintain a high standard of ethics and uphold our good reputation.”
He said distributors are not allowed to create social media accounts or handles that suggest they are official NeoLife platforms or that they speak on behalf of the company.
Mustapha also raised concerns over unauthorised individuals listing NeoLife products on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Jumia and Konga, outside approved sales channels and in violation of company policy.
“These listings not only misrepresent our brand but also put consumers at risk of purchasing counterfeit, expired or improperly handled products,” he said.
The company stated that it would continue to strengthen internal controls and distributor education to protect consumers, maintain brand integrity, and support sustained long-term growth in Nigeria.
