Receiving the award on behalf of the company, Innocent Ogbuji, WACT-APM Terminals Nigeria’s Government and Public Relations General Manager, expressed gratitude to the NCS.

“WACT-APM Terminals Nigeria is proud of this recognition and appreciates the Comptroller General of Customs for this award. We remain committed to maintaining our position as a leading terminal operator by leveraging cutting-edge technology, prioritizing safety, investing in human capital, fostering a strong team culture, driving Corporate Social Responsibility, and implementing sustainable practices — all while facilitating seamless trade operations with the Nigeria Customs Service,” he said.

Located within the Oil and Gas Free Zone in Onne Port, Rivers State, WACT-APM Terminals Nigeria is Nigeria’s first greenfield container terminal built under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.

Over the years, it has evolved into the most efficient gateway for markets outside Lagos, serving as a critical trade hub for eastern Nigeria and beyond.

In September, Vice President Kashim Shettima inaugurated a landmark USD115million upgrade of the terminal, further cementing its role in driving Nigeria’s economic growth.

This comprehensive investment included infrastructure upgrades to enhance efficiency, capacity, and sustainability, reflecting APM Terminals’ confidence in Nigeria’s economic potential.

The recognition by the NCS reinforces WACT-APM Terminals Nigeria’s pivotal role in the Nigerian maritime industry and its unwavering focus on facilitating trade, fostering innovation, and driving economic growth in West Africa.
