Mantrac Nigeria Limited, the sole authorized dealer for Caterpillar Products in Nigeria has called on road construction engineers to partner with the organization and its vision for quality and durable road construction in Nigeria  with low cost of operation.

Mr. Karim Sami, Paving and Forestry Segment Manager of the Company stated this during a one day seminar organised by the Company in Port Harcourt to educate customers about the durability of their equipment.

Enlightening the participants on the array of road construction equipment in the company’s kitty, Mr. Sami said it has become necessary to make public some of this equipment to satisfy the expectation of construction engineers and customers generally.He said the essence of the seminar is to bring all their customers in the Eastern Zone together, to intimate them on the importance of quality products that will enhance their productivity thereby leading to quality and durable roads in Nigeria.

“We are here today to showcase our machines and introduce efficient ways of road construction at lower operating cost. We want our customers to gain more and spend less. Of course, we are the solution to road construction in Nigeria and the best way to add value to our relationship with our customers is to come up with something that can bring profit to their investment.” He added.
Mr. Alex Nwoko, Head of Machine Sales in Mantrac Nigeria Limited, said apart from introducing the customers to the equipment, the seminar has enabled them to express their feelings especially on the area of product and services and how it enhances the end result.

“Machines can’t build good road, it is the contractors that do, but we are here today to introduce Nigerians, and basically our customers, to machines that will help them to build better roads in Nigeria. The main purpose of our equipment is to drive down cost for the customers to benefit.”

Nwoko stressed that participants were also introduced to new ways of handling the machines and products. Beyond that, he added that “One important thing is that the seminar has given some customers the opportunity to express their feelings about the quality of our services.”

Some of the customers who spoke at the seminar expressed satisfaction with the company and its machines believing that it would increase their confidence in quality service delivery.

Mrs. Enoh Chidi, one of the participants said: “The seminar has imparted greatly on us, at least we were able to assess the company based on our past relationship with them. On the area of the new machines and equipment the company wants us to buy into their vision. Without doubt, I have bought into their vision and I think others will do too. I also believe  it will  definitely improve road construction in Nigeria because some of the machines we are using today can no longer  fit in, that is why we have decided to honour their invitation for proper education on new ways of doing things.”
