A.G. Leventis Nigeria

What A.G. Leventis Nigeria does

A.G. Leventis (Nigeria) Limited is a privately held Nigerian conglomerate founded in 1937 by Anastasios G. Leventis, headquartered at 2 Wharf Road, Apapa, Lagos. The company operates four business divisions: Leventis Motors (automotive distribution and assembly), Leventis Fleet Solutions (managed fleet services), Leventis Real Estate (property development), and a retail presence via a Pick n Pay partnership on Victoria Island, Lagos. Across these units it distributes commercial vehicles from multiple OEMs — Foton (passenger, light, medium and heavy duty), Eicher (10.80, 10.70, Pro 3008), Volkswagen Trucks & Buses, and TGL — together with Lovol construction equipment (excavators, backhoe loaders, forklifts) and Lovol agricultural equipment (combine harvesters, tractors, front loaders).

Core technology and assets include a completed auto assembly plant in Ibadan for TGL vehicles, a Fleet Service Solution Control Center, and integrated fleet management solutions that span acquisition financing (hire purchase, lease-to-own, asset financing), aftermarket maintenance, and spare parts. The business model combines one-time vehicle and equipment sales with managed fleet services under multi-year contracts; pricing is quote-based for enterprise B2B clients rather than list-published. Customers are primarily fleet owners and logistics operators, government agencies, and enterprises in oil & gas, construction, FMCG distribution, and agriculture, with Nigerian Breweries Plc cited as a named enterprise customer. The company is led by GMD/CEO Seun Oni (appointed 2 September 2019) and COO Sunday Asade, and is privately held with no evidence of institutional, PE, or public-market ownership.
