B5 Plus Ltd, West Africa’s largest steel manufacturing company, has once again affirmed its leadership in the region’s industrial landscape by winning the Iron & Steel Category Award at the African Corporate and Business Excellence and Empowerment Awards (ACBEEA) 2025.

The award recognises B5 Plus as the “Most Diversified & Vertically Integrated Steel Design, Manufacturer & Steel Infrastructure Fabrication Company of the Year, 2025.” This accolade highlights the company’s remarkable innovation, operational excellence, and sustained contribution to Africa’s manufacturing and infrastructure development.

The 2025 edition brought together top executives, policymakers, and industry stakeholders to honour companies that are shaping the future of African enterprise.

B5 Plus’s win in the Iron and Steel category further reinforces its position as a trailblazer in the region’s manufacturing ecosystem, renowned for its high-quality products, sustainable practices, and continued investment in state-of-the-art technology.
