Chinese Company, Sinostar International Nigeria Limited on Wednesday expressed determination and commitment to advancing construction and infrastructural development in Nigeria using its affordable, standard, and market-friendly heavy-duty equipment.
It’s After Sales Service Manager, Mr Micah Gwazah, who said this in an interview with journalists in Abuja, reiterated the commitment of the Chinese government to supporting Nigeria’s development.
Gwazah said the company, a subsidiary of China Geo-Engineering Corporation (CGC), one of the largest suppliers of heavy-duty equipment to Nigeria, had been making positive contributions to the country’s growing infrastructure and construction sectors since 2005.
According to him, the company has supplied thousands of heavy-duty equipment for construction.
“Our equipment which includes Liugong (Wheel Loaders, Hydraulic Excavators, Bulldozers, Rollers, Forklift Truck, Motor Graders), Shantui (Bulldozers, Roller), and Sinotruk (Tipper, Cargo Truck and Tractors) are relatively cost-effective, durable and very easy to maintain.
“We also have a very comprehensive after-sales service and the spare parts of our machines are readily available.
“We are one of the largest heavy equipment suppliers in Nigeria.
“Since inception in 2005, we have supplied thousands of equipment to different construction companies, mining companies, government sector, and private individuals.
“And we are committed to increasing our supply to meet the growing infrastructural development and constructions going on around Nigeria.
“As we are looking at Nigeria becoming as developed as China and other developed countries of the world in the nearest future.
“Sinostar has achieved certain achievements in the fields of construction machinery and equipment, vehicle sales, spare parts supply, and after-market services in the past seventeen years of cultivation in Nigeria, and has a high market awareness,“ Gwazah said.
In terms of the contribution of the company to the development of Nigeria, Gwazah stated that Sinostar has deepened the heavy-duty equipment sector by proving alternative quality equipment at a very affordable rate.
He said that the company has also provided direct and indirect employment to hundreds of Nigerians.
“Before coming into Nigeria, the heavy-duty machinery sector was more of a monopoly with clients having little or no alternatives. But Sinostar Nigeria Limited has changed the narrative.
“We not only deepen the heavy machinery market in Nigeria, but we also ensured that our clients get value for money by proving them with alternatives at a very affordable rate. This has greatly helped the government, construction companies, and other clients in saving costs.
“We have trained hundreds of equipment maintenance technicians for Nigeria. We currently have almost 100 Nigerian workers in our employment occupying significant positions, especially in the after-sales department,” Gwazah added.
