Chairman's Foreword

"We are confident in the dynamic and resourceful Nigerian 2023 administration, which is committed to creating an enabling environment for responsible capitalism to thrive. The full implementation of the Petroleum Industry Act will foster a vibrant ecosystem capable of attracting foreign direct and portfolio investments, extending its impact across all relevant sectors of the economy where such opportunities are deserved."
Founder and Executive Chairman

With Nigeria as the catalyst, the 2024-2027 Sub-Saharan Africa economy is full of promise. The prospects of a fully engaged and integrated economy have never been felt so strongly since 2010.

Nigeria experienced radical developments from 1995 to 2010 with the delivery of the NLNG projects, widespread interstate and intercity highway development projects funded by the Petroleum Development Trust Fund, stable fuel and consumable energy distillates prices, and a currency free of manipulation. The 1999–2007 administration capitalized on this trajectory by stabilizing the banking and commerce industry, implementing several real-sector infrastructure projects, introducing GSM lines to the telecommunications industry, and executing local content policies that ensured the participation of Nigerian indigenes in the lucrative upstream oil and gas industry, scaling crude oil production to 2.5 million barrels per day, alongside other indigenization programs for wealth and resource transfer to a new generation of business leaders.

Unfortunately, the failure of the 2011–2015 administration to pass and implement the Petroleum Industry Bill stalled the nation’s aggressive development, foreign exchange conservation, and reserve growth. Foreign energy giants and investment corporates were hesitant to invest further due to uncertainty.

By Q4 2023, SISA made a bold decision to consolidate into a group holding structure to take full advantage of the projected economic prospects. We believed it was best to leverage our seven years of deeply successful, deliberately developed economies of scope, giving our businesses a recurring theme as a multi-sector, multi-industry procurement and logistics specialist. We segregated our businesses into core areas of activity.

  1. Agriculture (agro-allied product consolidation and supply chain)
  2. Mining (solid mineral and metal ore consolidation and export)
  3. Logistics (port and terminal optimization, operations, and management)
  4. Transportation (multipoint cargo origination, storage, haulage, and delivery)
  5. Energy (downstream energy product trading, sales, marketing, hedging & logistics)

Coupled with the 2024 inclusion of a technology product development, operations, and management company, Tabletech Africa Limited, these areas of activity now serve as strategic business units.

We hereby introduce you and the world to SISA Africa General Infrastructure Development Holdings Limited (SISAAGI). A result of SISA’s partnership with African General Infrastructure Limited, born to consolidate the experiences of the past 7 years needed to deliver a 21st-century green, nimble, environmentally cautious, efficient, and friendly sustainable logistics and raw product processing business, ready to fill the void identified within the infrastructure gap and challenges in areas and industries it has participated in since commencing activities in 2016.

This ensures we successfully transition from a trading company to a processor of goods formerly imported for our clients, thereby fulfilling Africa’s import substitution ambition and becoming an exporter of intermediate processed and refined raw materials to our clients abroad.

To ensure the successful implementation of our strategies, we entered into a strategic alliance partnership for the operations and management of our resulting holding company, as well as its strategic business units, with J.G Goldstein & Co. LLP, a leading team of management experts owned by the proprietors of our group holding company, well-versed in delivering best-in-class, result-oriented operations unique to the Sub-Saharan African market and terrain.

  1. Sustainability
    Securing the future for tomorrow’s generation couldn’t be overemphasized, and we intend to contribute our quota by evolving into a sustainable, fully integrated dynamic business. Sustainability, a secret best kept by global multinationals in terms of its profit-increasing potential to ensure shareholder motivation for doing business are met, will be our key golden principle across our verticals, downlines, aspirations, and standard operating procedures.

    Amongst various measures to be implemented as time goes on:

    1. We will be taking advantage of a backward integration strategy to grow the crops we process and offer to the world.
    2. As a matter of policy, no administrative office, processing facility, or logistics base will be powered by non-renewable fuels, restricting fuel sources to the sun, natural gas, and other biodegradable options.
    3. We will be leading a charge to replant trees to foster a greener, eco-friendlier world on land tenements where mineral and metal ores have been extracted, to power and provide energy and needed metals to further the course of mankind’s evolution.
    4. Finally, the group will commence a special exercise across areas possessing 40-to-150-year-old export commodity trees which have not been replanted or designated Government Industrial residential areas to preserve and enhance the security and biodiversity.

    By 2025, we will be publishing our first Sustainability report, which will be delivered at global world standards. We hope this endeavor will serve as an example to indigenous SMEs and local corporates alike, encouraging them to emulate a reliable, tried, and tested pathway to a long-term profitable enterprise.

    SISAAGI looks forward to great success and your much-needed partnership for a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship.

    Enjoy the journey and path to greatness, see you on the successful winning side!
