The OHL Trans-Nigeria Transportation Project is one of the seven anchor projects under the MDG Project Nigeria initiative. This project addresses Nigeria's critical transportation infrastructure needs through sustainable, innovative solutions focused on electric mobility and modern logistics systems.
The project comprises two main divisions:
Phase 1: Auto Assembly Operations
OHL Automobile Limited will operate the electric vehicle assembly plant, focusing on local production of electric vehicles and battery integration.
Phase 2: Logistics Operations
OHL Logistics Limited will operate a fleet of electric trucks for efficient fleet distribution and serves as a supply chain hub.
All project implementation companies are wholly owned subsidiaries of GLWD Investment Company Limited and are strategically positioned to support the broader anchor projects while driving Nigeria's transition to sustainable transportation.
