Foremost ground handling service provider, nahco aviance, has extended handling contracts with three leading international carriers, Emirates, Turkish and Virgin Atlantic.
The extension will further enable the company to meet up with its projected revenue of N300 billion by 2029, a target it announced at the recent Facts Behind the Figures presentation at the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX).
Emirates, which resumed scheduled flight operations to Nigeria in October, had previously appointed nacho to provide it with complete ground handling services. This arrangement will now be in place for the next five years.

British carrier, Virgin, has also followed suit, pitching its tent with NAHCO.
The Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, NAHCO Plc, Mr. Indranil Gupta, said, “For 45 years NAHCO has been the leader in ground handling service in Nigeria and the entire West Africa region. We will continue to lead the way, satisfy our clients and delight our shareholders. It is a promise we will keep.”
The GMD/CEO expressed NAHCO’s determination to meet the revenue target.
“NAHCO will continue to invest in equipment and in training to meet our obligations to our clients and to meet our revenue target,” Gupta further added.
The Group Executive Director, Commercial & Business Development, nahco aviance, Prince Saheed Lasisi, described the contracts signing as significant development in the relationship between NAHCO and these great organisations.
Lasisi said, “It is a measure of the trust that the airlines have in us that they have extended our contract with them for these respective years. We are so delighted with this and will go beyond expectations in making them the most satisfied airlines operating into and out of Nigeria.”
According to him, any airline that provides the best service will depend on the ground handler that provides the best service to keep its topflight position. He said NAHCO is honoured with the trust reposed in her by these reputable carriers.
