The Chief Executive Officer of Nigerdock, Maher Jarmakani, has stated that the company’s journey has been one of resilience, constant reinvestment, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

This was contained in a recent statement by the Chief Marketing Officer of Nigerdock FZE, Kevin Johnson-Azuara, obtained by The PUNCH.

According to the statement, Jarmakani stated this during an event to mark the company’s 40th anniversary, in recognition of its achievements in Nigeria’s maritime and industrial sectors.

He added that the company has trained thousands of its workforce in specialised skills to prove that local talent, supported by a world-class system, can deliver a global standard.

“Our journey has been one of resilience, constant reinvestment, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

 From our early days in ship repair and fabrication to becoming a regional hub for port operations, logistics support, and free zone services, we have consistently adapted, scaled our operations, and delivered landmark projects to our customers.

We have trained thousands in our workforce in specialised skills and proved that local talent, supported by world-class systems, can deliver global standards. As we celebrate forty years of operational excellence, we acknowledge the decades of collaboration with our clients, employees, and partners and remain fully focused on driving Nigeria’s economic growth,” Jarmakani said.

Established in 1986, Nigerdock has a legacy of driving industrialisation across Nigeria’s economic sectors and delivering critical port infrastructure, terminal operations, ship repair, real estate, and free zone solutions.

Nigerdock embarked on an ambitious expansion programme following its acquisition by the Jagal Group in 2003.

The company’s 40th anniversary coincides with the commencement of activities at Snake Island Port, a landmark port development partnership between Nigerdock and the Federal Government of Nigeria. Nigerdock is a Nigerian maritime and logistics company operating an integrated port and free zone in Lagos, facilitating global trade with the African market.
