Thirteen Thousand Seedlings Commemorate World Environment Day at SonySugar Company 2025 Ltd

South Nyanza Sugar Company 2025 Limited held two pompous events to mark World Environment Day (WED)—2026. WED commemorated every June 5th, is a significant day in our corporate calendar. Managing Director JP Odhiambo flagged off a massive clean-up exercise within the residential estates, and at the Sony Complex School, in a bid to sensitize the staff and learners on the benefits of a clean environment.

The MD also planted an indigenous ceremonial tree at the iconic Odola Park, named after a former managing director, Paul Odola. Mr Odola was an enthusiastic environmentalist. The park symbolizes SonySugar's rich history of commitment to environmental conservation.

She lauded Mr. Morris Ng’iela and Mr. Patrick Were, Corporate Quality Assurance Manager and Environmental Health and Safety Manager respectively, for their efforts in tree planting and environmental conservation and safety.
