A bold step is underway to empower micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across Nigeria like never before.
Through a strategic partnership with Elite Logistics, we are launching solar-powered, locally manufactured smart kiosks nationwide.
These kiosks will serve as compact, durable, and modern business hubs for thousands of small-scale entrepreneurs.
They are made in Nigeria, powered by clean energy, and tailored to fit the real needs of MSMEs.
Each kiosk represents far more than just a business booth; it is a symbol of inclusion, dignity, and innovation.
From food vendors and POS agents to tailors and mobile phone repairers, many will benefit from this initiative.
The goal is simple: give small businesses reliable infrastructure, increased visibility, and the respect they truly deserve.
Too often, Nigerian MSMEs operate in harsh environments, without shelter, electricity, or safety.
This effort seeks to change that narrative with smart kiosks that bring comfort, function, and pride to business.
They come equipped with solar panels, charging stations, shelves, lighting, and design features suited to daily trade.
In busy markets, roadside areas, and underserved communities, these kiosks will provide shelter and improve customer access.
The solar system ensures continuous power, reducing downtime and increasing profits for business owners.
This shift supports financial inclusion, enhances service delivery, and encourages formalization of informal businesses.
It creates a ripple effect, lifting local economies, especially in low-income and rural areas.
Beyond supporting small businesses, this initiative is boosting employment in several key sectors.
Each kiosk requires skilled work from welders, carpenters, solar technicians, painters, and local suppliers.
That means real jobs are being created, and skills are being put to meaningful use nationwide.
As orders grow, so does the need for local production, offering sustained work to thousands.
This project is also reducing reliance on imported infrastructure and embracing proudly Nigerian craftsmanship.
Our partnership with Elite Logistics is built on a shared belief in grassroots innovation and inclusive growth.
We both understand that MSMEs are the backbone of Nigeria’s economy and deserve proper support.
By giving them modern tools, we improve their chances of scaling, hiring, and expanding their impact.
We also reduce environmental pressure through solar power, showing that progress and sustainability go hand in hand.
These kiosks are not one-size-fits-all; they are customizable based on business type and location.
Each one is a product of community consultation, design input, and local production.
Business owners will receive orientation and training on managing their kiosks effectively and maximizing available features.
This means that no one is left behind, and every kiosk comes with a support system.
We believe this is just the beginning of a broader push to reimagine MSME infrastructure across Nigeria.
From Lagos to Kano, from Aba to Makurdi, we are committed to building solutions that work locally.
This is not charity. It is investment in productivity, dignity, and long-term value creation at the base.
By empowering the smallest businesses, we are energizing the largest economic engine Nigeria has.
Together, we are proving that sustainable growth starts from the ground up—with people, power, and purpose.
