Ports & Cargo Handling Services (P&CHS), a subsidiary of Sifax Group, announced on Monday the resumption of full port operations following a fire outbreak that disrupted port operations at the terminal over the weekend.
In a post on its social media handles on Monday, Sifax Group stated, “This is to inform our clients and customers that full business activities have resumed at Ports & Cargo Handling Services, a subsidiary of Sifax Group. “We are here to serve you better.”
Recall that the company announced a disruption to its operations following a fire outbreak at one of its IT units at the weekend.
“This is to inform all stakeholders of Ports & Cargo Handling Services Limited, a subsidiary of SIFAX Group, that there was a fire incident at our facility located at the Tin Can Island Port, Apapa, Lagos, on Saturday, February 24, 2024.
“The inferno, which happened at our IT office, affected key IT equipment. However, we are glad to report that this unfortunate incident has not resulted in any data loss due to the excellent backup plan the company has put in place to safeguard its data.
“While minimal disruption to our services is expected, we are currently working with all relevant agencies, especially the Nigerian Customs Service and Tin Can Island Command, to restore normal port operations by Monday, February 26, 2024.
“We are using this opportunity to assure all our stakeholders, including clearing agents, consignees, and other port users, that we have activated our approved business continuity plan to keep our operations running while we work assiduously to meet the scheduled date of resuming normal port operations.
“We want to thank all stakeholders who have expressed their concerns and solidarity over the incident. We are deeply grateful.
“Appreciation also goes to the Customs Area Controller, Tin Can Island Command of the Nigerian Customs Service, Mr Dera Nnadi, and his team for their swift response after the incident,” a Sifax Group statement read at the weekend.
