TGI Distri is the distribution arm of Tropical General Investments (TGI) Group, launched in 2017 to bring brands including Big Bull Rice, Terra Seasoning Cubes, Golden Terra Oil, Peppe Terra and Renew Starch to Nigerian consumers. Read the eligibility carefully: this programme requires a minimum of one year and a maximum of two years post-NYSC experience, so it is not open to graduates fresh out of service despite the "graduate trainee" framing. It is also genuinely frontline sales — an intensive induction followed by six months of field training, shadowing sales staff across market channels, with the company describing it as demanding and built around grit and resilience. Open to any discipline with a 2:2 or Lower Credit, aged 28 or under as at 31 December 2026, and willing to be deployed anywhere in Nigeria. No stated deadline.
