Igbo's dont waste your time with Afonjas they are only trying to play catch up with the Igbo's, you should know Afonjas are jokers when they listed apps that don't have up to one thousand free downloads or when the listed products that have not even reach beta testing stages, or sold one unit one even mentioned alabukun ![]() The Indigenous manufacturers in Anambra state alone have thump all that they listed here, and I am not counting Abia, Enugu or even our brothers outside Nigerian shores like afonjas have done, yet this list that I reduced from Anambra state alone have toppled everything the op and every other Afonja listed. I would have created a thread but we already have too many on this forum already and I am sure one of our brothers is already doing so ![]() You know Afonjas are Joker when they list proforce, Guinness, procter and gamble, benson and hedges, Airtel as their companies even when these companies have the head office in their respective countries.... take Afonjas seriously are your own peril, same people that said they own Next towers in VI because it was finance by GT bank. You just can't help but alway give the most stupid trophies to Afonjas. The deserve it. This is the kind of list we expected from Afonjas, not tailors, cobblers and welders, we expect Names of companies, and the address if they are not global players, this is why Afonjas fail exam and will always come second to Igbo's in terms of education, industry and achievements. This is a cut down list for manufacturers in Anambra state alone, yet is surpassed what Afonjas brought in their defense on this thread. Shame.

Ipods yoots are now angry. ![]() Adi’, meaning ‘to tie’ and ‟re’ which means to dye’ is the name given to indigo-dyed cloth produced by the Yoruba of South Western Nigeria using a variety of resist-dye techniques that reflect the culture, language and art tradition of the Yoruba people. The earliest form of Adire was Kijipa, a prototype of cotton, locally-woven hand-spun cloth dyed with indigo. The Indigo dye is made from the chopped and pounded leaves of the African indigo plant. The cloth takes on a brown color, which immediately oxidizes with air and becomes a beautiful deep blue color. The Alaro controls production of Adire while Aladire controls its marketing. 22 Likes 3 Shares

Fineman87: ...that moment when you finally realised you've been decimated but want to cover up your shame.. ![]() Dude, I am not as guilty as charged by you, you are the one hurting yourself by rolling around the thread like a loner vagabond. ![]() Nigeria imports 1,500 armoured vehicles yearly – Proforce boss JANUARY 29, 2014 : RASHEED BISIRIYU Chief Executive Officer, Proforce Limited, Mr. Adetokunbo Ogundeyin Chief Executive Officer, Proforce Limited, Mr. Adetokunbo Ogundeyin Chief Executive Officer, Proforce Limited, Mr. Adetokunbo Ogundeyin, spoke to journalists in Lagos on armoured vehicle importation and manufacturing in Nigeria, among other issues. RASHEED BISIRIYU was there Why are armoured vehicles generally expensive? It is so because of ballistic steel. The cost of ballistic steel is enormous. We are talking about steel of about 6.5 millimetre thickness. We are talking about adding a weight of at least 1,000 kilos to a vehicle. The suspension has to be reinforced, which comes all the way from Australia. All these things are imported. But, with time, as the new automotive policy gains ground, we will start producing these things in Nigeria. That is the benefit of the new automotive policy. Armoured vehicles are certainly heavy; how do you manage weight problem? That is why when you want to armour a vehicle, we suggest that the engine capacity should be a minimum of 4.6 litres; that is Landcruiser and above; so, there will be a lot of power and torque to move the vehicle very well. Apart from that, it must have a reinforced suspension. Moreover, we always advise you don’t go more than 100Km to 120km per hour. Above that, it is a bit dangerous, because the vehicle is very heavy and then you need to be trained on how to drive an armoured vehicle. It is not the same way you drive other vehicles. Nigeria is said to be among the top four countries importing armoured vehicles in the world. Does this worry you, especially Nigeria being in the same group with Iran and Afghanistan that are known for violence? Yes, it is a major concern. Insecurity is a major concern. But one thing I will say is that Nigeria is not isolated when it comes to this. Don’t forget that we recently transited from military to civilian rule. We are still trying to find our feet under the civilian rule. All these things add up. We are having another election next year. Politics in this country is a bit of do-or-die. A lot of people just feel that they will be insecure. So, they want to protect themselves. That is one reason. The other reason is the level of threat to life in the northern area. I am talking about the Boko Haram issue. Unfortunately, the situation is escalating; people feel threatened in the north, and it is even spreading to the South. This is the reason why people feel they have to be protected. Armed robbery is also a factor. How many armoured vehicles are imported into the country every year? When you talk about the normal passenger vehicles, I think it is about 500 and 800 in a year. There are Armoured Personnel Carriers imported by the Police and the Customs. By the time you add the ones imported by the military, you will be talking about 1,500 in a year. Why did you opt for armoured vehicles business? The state of insecurity has been on the increase. When you look at armed robbery, you will see that it is on a high level. I was in Kuwait sometime ago and people were looking for a company that would market their products. But I did not want to be a go-between. I wanted to be a manufacturer. So, we teamed up with some Colombians to set up Proforce in 2008. That was actually how we started the company. And the reason we founded the company, like I said, was the high level of insecurity in the country and all over the world. Why did you prefer manufacturing to importing? I have passion for innovation. As an engineer, I do not believe that trading is the way forward. Engineers believe that trading does not build the economy of any country; it is through innovative manufacturing and application of the latest technology. Manufacturing is the heartbeat of any economy; without manufacturing, the economy will be stagnant and may collapse under global market pressures. Trading is just a short-term engagement; manufacturing is long-term. You can imagine the amount of joy you have when you see your products in other countries all over the world. It enhances Nigeria’s good image all over the world. What exactly do you produce in your plant, and can the standard be compared with similar products elsewhere in the world? We armour sport utility vehicles. We make a lot of tactical vehicles, cash-in-transit vans; infantry combat vehicles, armoured patrol boats, Unmanned Arial Vehicles and architectural armouring. We are now putting together a prototype military tank. Majority of these vehicles are second to none when you look at the quality. We have brought in expatriates that have many years of experience in armouring. These are people who were the top guys where they were working before. They have transferred the technology to Nigerians who are coming up seriously fast. I can assure you that our products are just as good as all the products that are imported into Nigeria. Moreover, all defence products manufacturers import raw materials from the same select group of companies. For instance, we source for glass from the same world leading armoured glass company in Peru; steel from the same company. We have independently tested the different parts. They are all tested in ballistic laboratories in Germany and we are putting together a process of taking the vehicle as a whole for testing in Germany too. Apart from that, even the drive of our vehicles is different; because of our environment, the suspensions are made to suit our roads. What kind of support have you been getting from government? Proforce has been recognised by government. In fact, there was a time the President sent a delegation of all the security outfits within the Presidency to come and look at what we are doing. At different times, the Minister of Trade and Investment, Dr. Olusegun Aganga, and the Minister of State in the ministry have been to the plant. The military has been there. Commissioners of police of different states have also been there, and they all appreciated what we were doing and were impressed. Not only that, the Federal Government has just come out with the new automotive policy as part of the transformation agenda. The automotive policy is the best thing to ever happen to this country. Look at a country like Iran where the auto industry contributes 10 per cent to the GDP of that country. That is what is going to happen in Nigeria. The auto policy will transform this country completely into a manufacturing nation. Look at financing, the Federal Government has now provided an intervention fund for manufacturing. This fund is one that is accessed easily. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Yorubas even control manufacturing Wemy Industries Ltd targets middle to low income earners helping to improve hygiene standards and reduce infant mortality rates. Wemy Industries Ltd has over the years become the only leading domestic player competing with international brands in the local market. History Edit 1978 October 25,Wemy Industries Limited was incorporated as a Private Limited Liability (PLL) company to manufacture Dr. Brown’s brand of ladies sanitary pads and children’s disposable nappies.[1] 1981 The company commenced full production of its diapers and sanitary pads at its former site in Isolo, a small residential suburb of Lagos state. At the time, it was the sole domestic manufacturer of these products in Nigeria. 1983, the company added toilet rolls to its product portfolio. However, this product was discontinued as the company felt that it was not a commercially viable product at the time and decided to commit its efforts and resources to its more profitable product lines. 1984, due to the increasing scope of the company’s operations, Wemy Industries commissioned the building of a new factory in Ota Industrial Estate, Ogun State. 1990 as a result of the need to further expand, coupled with the desire to be located within the Lagos metropolis, Wemy Industries relocated the factory site to Alapere Ketu, where the company still resides today. 1994 rival companies launched their brands of hygiene products in the Nigeria market, a lot of media buzz was garnered for the health and hygiene industry. Thus, leading Wemy Industries to change strategy and ultimately diversify their product range. 2004 till present, Wemy Industries has consciously increased its product range in order to optimize its revenue streams and fend‐off increasing competition, introducing products such as baby wipes, panty liners, ultra‐thin pads and underlay pads into the Nigerian market over a few years. 2009 Wemy Industries introduced the Nightingale® brand as an alternative brand in maternity care range of products. 2013 commissioned additional factories for baby wipes and under-lay towel pads. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wemy_industries 16 Likes 3 Shares |
