The mission brought together representatives from the ECOWAS Commission, the National Automotive Design and Development Council (NADDC), and the management of IVM.

During the mission, delegates toured key production sites, including the assembly lines for 15- and 17-seater buses, the air conditioning and electrical sections, the compressed natural gas (CNG) bus installation unit, the surface treatment facilities, and the stability testing facilities.

Beyond its operations in Nigeria, the company highlighted its role in manufacturing ambulances, military vehicles, and tractors, as well as its growing exports to Sierra Leone, Mali, and Ghana, with plans to establish an assembly plant in Sierra Leone.

In his remarks, Mr. Muhammad Bala, Director of the Department of Industrial Development at the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment, commended Innoson for its pioneering role in local manufacturing.

Mr. Lassane Kabore, ECOWAS Director of Industry, emphasized the importance of the Innoson model in shaping the regional automotive policy.
