Dangote Group has signed an agreement with Automaker, Transit Support Services Limited, for the supply of Shacman trucks being assembled at the Anambra Motor Manufacturing Company Limited’s (ANAMMCO) factory in Emene, Enugu.
This comes shortly after the group injected about N63 billion for the purchase of 3,500 units of trucks aimed at reviving the ANAMMCO plant.
The disclosure was made by the Chairman of Transit Support Services Ltd, Frank Nneji during a tour of the auto plant.
Why this matters: The auto plant had been dormant for many years until Dangote Group signed an agreement for the production of Shacman trucks. The production of the vehicles led to the recall of all ANAMMCO staff, who for years, have not been doing anything as the company went moribund.

The agreement has reportedly benefited the people in the area immensely through job creation and training of young school leavers.
According to Nneji, the revival of the auto plant and the investment of Dangote has not only benefitted company but has also returned the pride of the South-East economy, which the ANAMMCO auto plant represents.
“About 90 per cent of trucks produced here are for Dangote. Right now at the dump, we have about 300 units. Since last year, we have done 800 units. Dangote Group since inception has bought about 3,500 units from us. It also patronises the Shackman trucks for its refinery currently being built in Lagos,” he said.
Nneji added that the project had also kept busy the Onne port which was dormant for many years. He explained that the port is used for the delivery of vehicle components supplied to the ANAMMCO plant by its partner from China, Shaanxi Heavy Duty Automobile Import & Export Company.
Also speaking was the General Manager, Corporate Communications of Dangote Group, Mr Sunday Esan, who made it known that the quality of the Shacman trucks was satisfactory, as he assured Nneji of continuous patronage.
“Dangote Group is expanding. Apart from the cement, sugar and salt factories, among others, we’re starting a petroleum refinery, the biggest in Africa. All these will require a high number of trucks. It is a long-term relationship,” he said.

Good business relationship between Dangote groups and motor assembly plant for you. Dormant workers, axillary plants and others will come alive again.
This is what we need .
Good business relationship, I am highly impressed that the Refinery will be the biggest in terms of capacity in Africa. The recall of many of the staff of the moribund motor company is also a good development as this will definitely reduce unemployment in Nigeria. Definitely the establishment of the Refinery and the resuscitating of the motor company will definitely improve the Nation’s economy to some reasonable levels. Thanks to Dangote group, the reason for the advancement of Dangote group, is because Aliko the President of the group, has zero tolerance for nepotism. Good deals good business !!!
Good news indeed
The reason why Dangote group was able to achieve these great feats, is because Aliko, the President of the group, has zero tolerance for nepotism and mediocrity.
So the parts will be imported and travel through Lagos to anambara and then after processing will travel back to lay s?
If you read to the end, you’d see that the port of use is in Onne, Rivers State
This is what we need.. he is coming and when he finally announce it. Then it’s over!….
This kind of person called dangote and The Igbo man called Innoson motors,are type of people who needs to be president of Nigeria and transform the economy no matter which tribe you are from, they will carry you along, not someone who did not iften pass secondao school cert to rule over 5 thousand professors.
If you completed secondary school yourself, you should know how to spell ‘even’ and ‘secondary’.
No doubt in my mind that Dangote is the star of the nation detribalized and showing the way forward. Kudos
Because he is reviving a moribund factory in your area he is now idolized. If it was a company marked to be privatized in your area the narrative would have changed.
Motor Assembly plant should be careful and always give a certified proof of vehicle with worthiness and Dangote should sign appropriately for documentation… Because tomorrow or in the Next coming years propaganda might arise…
Great development. Those sowing seeds of discord will not comment on this kind of news. God bless Nigeria
This is an interesting move by Dangote group of company in their partnership and reviving the moribund ANAMMCO plant. Kudos to them
