Inland Containers Nig. Ltd.

INLAND CONTAINERS NIG. LTD. (ICNL), a subsidiary of Chrome Group, operates as inland terminals for cargoes shipped in Lagos and are bound North, especially in Kano and Kaduna. At the moment, ICNL is undergoing restructuring to compete with existing ports and warehouses. One of its major project is to convert its terminals into bonded warehouses so as to accommodate more customers, leading to higher profitability in the long run.

KALMAR - top in its field of versatile container loader. Correspondent was told that this brand is the most expensive among others, but, was assured that with proper maintenance this can last forever.

Containers arranged accordingly.














Although it's still mid-day, one worker was caught deep in slumber under a trailer. [this can be given to the show - HOY GISING!]










Tomorrow, i'll be going to the inland depots of ICNL in Kano and Kaduna. I can't wait to see how the place looks like.
