DStarrx: It was some weeks back that the Chairman and chief executive of the Innoson Group of Companies, Innocent Chukwuma, broke the cheering news of his company’s intention to roll out its first set of made-in-Nigeria cars and SUVs. This effort is the first of such in the country. Though Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company (IVM), Innoson’s vehicle production subsidiary and Nigeria’s flagship indigenous vehicle manufacturer, has over the years been into the production of passenger buses and trucks, they’ve never delved into the production of cars and SUVs on a large scale. This expansion into the automobile industry is a welcome development for both the company and Nigeria. Dude you couldnt have explained it any better, you are bang on point. And I think the same should also apply to major industrial businesse in Nigeria. Its high time most business men especially from the SE(Dnt mean to start up any tribal centiment) and nigeria in general move towards employing key professional in their businesses. Employ the use of management consultants, marketing firms ,audit firms. Have a highly skilled SALES department that can really push the cars and other businesses or services into the market 5 Likes |

DStarrx: Instagram was also created yesterday (in 2010) and today it's the rave of the moment with more than 150 million active users. Being "invented" yesterday is not a reason to lay back and watch others dominate the market.The Innoson guy is stingy. He doesn't want to pay marketing consultants to do a good job of forcing his car into the conscious of Nigerians. He is waiting for government to give him an handicap against his competitors. I remember Toyota's "good thinking good product" advert many years ago when PAN was the in thing. Today,out of ten cars on Nigeria road, 8 are Toyota. The only place he advertises is on niaraland. The man is contented being " Nigeria first indigenous car manufacturer ". 9 Likes |

Re: Your Opinions: Can Innoson Compete With Giants Like Toyota & KIA In Nigeria? by MadCow1: 3:40pm On Sep 08, 2014 |
tdayof: Not durable.. Thats why very few Chinese cars are allowed into the U.S Markets. Many Chinese cars have less than a 2 Star safety rating meaning you are highly likely to die if you are involved in a car accident driving one. 2 Likes |

AlfaSeltzer: Do you know that toyota and kia design their own cars?The ingenuity of the companies you mentioned started with mediocrity; 10 years ago, china wasn't producing cars but very soon, China would soon start exporting vehicles to the US... With a conducive business environment (provided by the government) and a passionate will by IVM to succeed, IVM can favourably compete with those bigger names at least in the Nigerian and African market... In order to succeed also, IVM needs to pay excellent attention to details and not compromise on quality (unfortunately a trait rarely found amongst the black race). 1 Like |

Of course INNOSON can but he has to do a lot of groundwork, partner with a bank perhaps and have at least a service shop in every state capital. In a place like Lagos, he should aim for 5. |

immortalcrown: IVM Company was invented just yesterday, yet it has made some enviable achievements. Therefore, I strongly believe that the company will soon improve to an incredible level. Have you bought one ? I believe in people walking their talk . @topic, The company should try to reduce the price of their vehicles to the barest minimum while not compromising quality. As it is today,they are still way back in this highly competitive industry. |

Can Innoson thing compete? The answer to that question depends on Innoson's selling point. He is far behind the pack in terms of innovation and marketability so he's sellling point should be price(Being owned by a Nigerian is not a selling point). He should take a cue from Techno phones. They came into the market and did not compete with the likes of Samsung and Blackberry but found a niche for themselves in the low cost smart phone market. Obviously cars and phones are different but i doubt if any body would pick an Innoson vehicle over a Toyota or Kia if they were in the same price range. 4 Likes |

Like someone alreasy pinted out, Uncle Innoson nmeeds to stop limiting marketing to Nairaland. I don't know if he realises the importance of a good marketing manager, but he must have online presence in order to reach the desired market. There are 45 million Nigerians on the internet, he needs to tap into all of that. GEJ, Atiku and El-rufai use the social networks, how much more a business man. Even Dangote had to join twitter once he realised it's importance. Hell, I'll do his marketing for free if he hires me, but it's not enough to dwell on NL that doesn't even have one percent of total internet users, no offence to Seun |
