According to the vendor, this is not her first appearance at the GTCO food and drink festival but the first of the holiday edition festival as it debuted this year.
She noted that the holiday edition of the event has exceeded expectations, knowing fully the capacity GTCO annual food and drink festivals, she described the first food and drink Holiday edition 2025 as “mind-blowing” and an ideal destination for people looking to relax, have fun, and enjoy good food during the season especially Nigerians in diaspora returning for detty December.
GTCO sustained the Festival’s core objective of supporting Nigerian food entrepreneurs. This year’s edition features 213 Nigerian-owned food and beverage businesses, selected from over 4,000 applications nationwide and Rapid Meals being one of the lucky selected vendors. Mrs Chineyen added that organizers adequately informed all participants ahead of time, ensuring that vendors came fully prepared the wide variety of food and drinks available at the venue, stating that everything was well organized and “on point.” On sales, Rapid Meals revealed that while purchases were still gradually increasing in the afternoon, past experience suggests that sales would peak later in the evening.
Rapid Meals is a pastries brand solely into sales of yummy and delicious small chops. She expressed confidence that they would sell out, especially as part of the heightened spending associated with the festive “Detty December” period.
Mrs Chineyen expressed deep appreciation to GTCO for organizing the holiday edition of the Food and Drink Festival, describing the opportunity as invaluable and extending a heartfelt thank you to the bank for its continued support of small businesses.
