NAHCO Extends Qatar, Saudia, ASKY Deals, Signs FlyGabon Contract, Begins US Solar Export

The Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (nahco aviance) has strengthened its market position by extending key contracts and securing new partnerships. The company announced the renewal of agreements with Qatar Airways, Saudia Airlines, and ASKY, reinforcing its dominance in the aviation ground handling sector.

In addition to these extensions, NAHCO has signed a new three-year contract with FlyGabon, a recently launched airline entering the Nigerian market. This partnership, effective from October 2024 to September 2027, aligns with FlyGabon's goal to provide seamless connectivity between West, Central, and Southern Africa. These new signings add to NAHCO's existing roster of airline clients, which includes Sky 7, Pioneer, Avia Green, Benani, and the Aviation Clearing House, building on over 40 years of service in the Nigerian aviation industry.

NAHCO's commercial reach has also expanded into international trade with the commencement of solar cell exports to the United States. Since January 2026, BGE (Nigeria) Solar FZE has been utilizing NAHCO's facilities in Lagos for these shipments. The project has involved scheduled carriers like Lufthansa, Ethiopian Airlines, and Turkish Airlines, with freight forwarding partners managing consignments ranging from 20 to 50 tons.

Prince Saheed Lasisi, Group Executive Director of Commercial and Business Development at NAHCO Plc, expressed pride in the company's ability to earn long-term trust from a diverse range of operators. He highlighted NAHCO's critical role in providing end-to-end cargo handling services for the solar cell export project, including acceptance, build-up, warehousing, and export processing, alongside full aircraft handling services to ensure seamless ground operations and on-time departures.
