Located in the prominent business district between Mobolaji Johnson Avenue and the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, the new facility will give the 100 years company easy access to its target market.
Serving the market which includes: Automotive, construction, financial institutions, telecommunications & technology, mining, marine, oil & gas, and power generation, Cummins West Africa Ltd is optimistic that the new facility will increase service satisfaction.
“We are confident the facility will increase service satisfaction from where it is today, we’re sure it will improve better quality products leaving this facility because most things are done with the use of automated system; less human error,” Mark oni-Okeke, Commercial Manager, Cummins West Africa said during the recent inauguration, assuring that the efficiency of the workforce will get better because of the conducive environment.
For the West Africa arm of the New York-listed group company, the move sends a strong signal that Nigeria is critical to its regional operations.
According to Kwame Gyan-Tawiah, Director Cummins Distribution, the recently launched facility in Lagos is one of the company’s biggest in the world.
“Apart from our factories, this facility is the biggest in the world, so for Cummins, Africa is part of their agenda; if you look around because the company believes in local talents every member of the leadership teams is a Nigerian except for one and even that one is a West African,” Tawiah assured saying that Cummins believes Africa is for Africans.
