The Innoson Motor Vehicle Limited says each of its vehicles
has 65 per cent Nigerian local content, making them indigenous brands and
promoting the Made-in-Nigeria initiative.

Chief Arthur Nwandu, the Sales Consultant to the company,
disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Enugu on Monday at the
ongoing 31st Enugu International Trade Fair.

Nwandu said that the company’s stand was strategically
positioned at the fair to exhibit the vehicles to the world.

According him, as at today, Innoson is the only indigenous
auto-mobile producing company in Nigeria.

He said that the company had developed brands of vehicles in
various designs, shapes and ruggedness to suit the Nigeria environment and many
purposes.

“As far as Nigeria is concerned, Innoson is the only
indigenous automobile company in the country.

“It is having over 65 per cent of all its vehicle parts
sourced from materials locally found and produced in Nigeria.

“Apart from the aesthetics or beauty of the vehicles, these
vehicles are very rugged.

“When you drive in them, the suspensions are very robust and
their movements are very accelerating and enjoyable.

“Each of the vehicle brand has special feature that stands
it out from any similar brand from any known automobile maker,’’ he said.

Nwandu said that the interior and finishing of the vehicles
“are superb, laced with best quality leathers and aesthetic touch.”

NAN reports that the fair, holding at Enugu Trade Fair
Complex, Golf Estate,  organised by the
Enugu Chambers of Commerce, started on Friday and would end on March 23.

The theme of the trade fair is: “Advancing the Growth of
SMEs through Corporate Governance for Rapid Economic Development.’’
