Does Innoson manufacture or just “assemble” vehicles?

This has become a famous topic of debate among some Nigerians.

To start with, Innoson Vehicle Manufacturer (IVM) is a famous wholly Nigerian-owned producer of different vehicle brands.

The company has its assembly plant at Nnewi in Anambra state.

70% of their Innoson car parts are produced locally while the rest are imported from Japan, China and Germany.

However, there has been a long-drawn debate as to the company’s actually status. Some say the company manufactures vehicles, others argue that the company is in the business of simply “assembling” vehicles.

Those who argue that Innoson is just an “assembler” predicate their arguments on the fact that Innoson sources for the components of its vehicles from external suppliers – mostly from China.



Well, to answer this question, let us look profile of some world-renowned automakers.

Benz-Daimler AG is a German car manufacturer. It has its headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany. The company is the producer of the Mercedes Benz auto brands.

To produce the Mercedes Benz cars, Benz-Daimlers rely on over 100 suppliers of Benz parts across the globe.

Some principal suppliers of Mercedes Benz parts include Thyssenkrupp (German), Eagle Ottawa (USA), Inteva Products (USA), Carcoustics (Netherlands), Nemak (Mexico), Johnson Electric (Hong Kong) and ZF Lenksysteme (German), etc.



Now, let’s profile another top auto-brand: Rolls Royce.

Rolls Royce is a prestigious British auto-brand. It has its factory in Sussex, England, United Kingdom.

To produce a Rolls Royce car, only 8% of Rolls-Royce parts are produced in the UK.

As such, the company imports roughly 32,000 parts from more than 600 global suppliers to build its vehicles.

Now, with these examples, how do we classify Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing? A vehicle manufacturer? or simply an “assembler”?

Innoson Produce cars, Simple!!

All INNOSO's cars are Assembled in Nigeria. The parts are imported from China, this means
that, all INNOSON's Vehicles are China.

innoson manufactures car but didn't produce car he only create them.......... simple no logic

INNOSON motors are all China made, the parts are imported and Assembled by INNOSON. The cars are moving Coffin, no wonder the owner of the company doesn't drive his own brand.

INNOSON imports Car Parts from China and Japan.



I think they are manufacturer...

From your write up,he manufactures. I'm thinking of buying IVM Bus for my firm,due to high cost of hiace bus,but the way people bad talk IVM products,i'm afraid.

Lol

Innoson daalu

Hmm

INNOSON manufactures cars using supply chain method.

Autojosh, by your analogy, IVM is a vehicle manufacturing entity.

BUT, we all know that the act of manufacturing parts and components of a vehicle is mainly through the engineering of those parts and components.

BMW and RR both have hundreds of engineers (mechanical, electrical, design, metallurgy, materials even civil works) doing the designs and testing of components.
How many engineers does IVM have in his employ? That is my question and I hope it would answer the manufacturing part of the principal question.

Hmmm... The last time I did an article on Innoson, I had 75 mentions... So, it will be good to sit, watch and observe with Zobo and Pop Corn

Oga na lie, people that own firm don't talk like this..

From the OP analysis it means Innoson is more of a manufacturer than Mercedes Benz.

If anyone still insist that Innoson assembles cars then Mercedes Benz are car dealers.

Innoson cars are made in Nigeria.
If Nigerians no wan gree, then e go be 'made in Biafra'. Period!

There’s no need for this WarriorPedigree.

A lot of credit should be given to Innoson & encouraged to improve.

.just watch as haters will seek to bring down a man God has lifted. i just wish they chanelled all thier power to discover thier own calling.

Op, your write up is inconclusive and not detailed enough for one to make up his mind. You just stated already known facts.

Someone asked me this question last week.
I told him innoson assembles the Engine in Nigeria but produces the body in Nigeria

Waiting for the right answer from this forum.
Thanks Op.

He manufactures.

But some people with high infection of BRING HIM DOWN SYNDROME will rather die than agree that he manufactures simply because he's from the eastern part of the country.
