According to Group Managing Director of the Company, Mr Tope Daramola said the vision is to transform Harmony Holdings to one of the top three Government-owned Holding companies in Nigeria with a minimal annual turnover of N50billion by the year 2022.

Mr Daramola, who described the unveiling as water shed in the annals of the company with an assurance that its commitment to human capital development remained unwavering, added that all the 21 subsidiaries of the Holdings company are being turned around so that they could be major players in national economy.
