About Us

Merciport was founded on the dream and quest to provide products and services that proffer simple solutions infused with global standards in the Nigerian Oil and Gas industry with a focus on easing and enhancing the quality of the lives and businesses of its partners and customers.

At the core of Merciport’s business model is integrity, value creation, commitment, timeous and excellent customer service delivery.

Since Merciport began operations in 2007, our relentless pursuit for efficiency has skyrocketed the growth of the company’s clientele base from a 100 customer in 2007 to a base of over 3000 active customers in 2012. In December of 2018, the company experienced an exponential growth in its clientele base, in which it exceeded its 2012 customer volume in that single month. Presently, Merciport can boast of a base of over 10,000 customers with sales volume of over 200 million litres a year, a geometric progression from the sales volume of 2 million litres recorded in 2007.

Merciport has consistently pushed its boundaries of reach, in terms of expanding its customer base, product offerings and business. At inception, the company only traded in the sales of Automotive Gas Oil (AGO), Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) and Dual-Purpose Kerosene (DPK), however and in line with our growth plans, the company included Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) to its trade in the first quarter of 2019. This decision was made as a resolve of the company’s drive to provide cleaner fuel for a better environment. This led to the acquisition of one LPG plant in the North Central region of Nigeria and construction of two other LPG plants in the South West region of Nigeria.

Merciport’s diversification into the trade in Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is line with the company’s long-term growth plans with the inclusion of all our stakeholders at heart. In order words, at the centre of our company growth policies is a well-designed ‘Leave No One Behind’ structure and strategy, that carries along the interest of our clients, investors, contributions to the economic development of Nigeria, clean and sustainable environment.

Upon our emergence into the Nigeria Oil & Gas downstream market which is highly competitive, we have successfully built and sustained a resilient portfolio founded on integrity, thereby catapulting us to a prestigious spot among the top league companies in the Nigeria oil and gas industry.

Within a few years into the commencement of our operations, our impact through our dogged commitment to excellent customer service was immediately recognized by the players in the industry. In 2013, Merciport was awarded ‘Customer of the year’ by Sahara Energy Resources Limited (a subsidiary of Sahara group). Also, in 2013 Merciport was nominated by the Tony Elumelu Foundation as one of Nigeria’s Fast Growth companies. In 2014, Mrs. Rita James (CEO) was nominated for Masters category, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award and in 2016, at their 20th Anniversary ceremony, Sahara Group acknowledged Merciport as one of their outstanding partners. This is to mention a few among many other awards and recognitions.

With a framework firmly rooted in making positive impacts, using an integrated downstream global approach, Merciport is set to take the Nigeria oil and gas industry beyond the boundaries of Africa, to the world at large.
