travel project known as LAGRIDE; this project has changed the overall appearance of
the public transportation system in Lagos State, it has also created more local jobs
which has provided Nigerian youths with more dignified and rewarding way of earning a
living, including local third-party service suppliers.

“Nigeria is an important market for our Africa expansion plans especially in West Africa,
where we have identified opportunities of developing a collaborative automotive industry
hub amongst the countries in the region. The hub concept will ensure that each country
with an automotive development policy or economic interest in the automotive industry
has an important role to play in the supply value chain. We have also recorded the
following milestones;

• Installation and operation of a state-of-the-art automobile assembly facility in
Nigeria.
• Installation and operation of an integrated industrial and domestic home
appliances manufacturing facility in Nigeria.
• Facilitated the successful operation of the first World Class Private Taxi Project
“LAGRIDE” a Joint Venture Partnership with the Lagos State Government.

Chairman Chief Diana added: “GAC is fully committed to supporting creative artistry
culture and its industrial transformation agenda despite the current economic challenges
facing the country. We are here for the long haul. Our company believes in long term
investments which are nurtured through mutual relationships with like-minded partners.

Nigeria’s commitment to the development of its automotive industry is evident in the
GADP, which is still the blueprint automotive policy in the region in terms of creating an
enabling environment for the establishment of an automotive industry in Sub-Saharan
Africa.”

Following the debut of the first-ever GAC G-Style showroom in Lagos, Nigeria, the
launch of the second G-Style showroom in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja
represents yet another significant turning point in the development and extension of the
GAC network across Nigeria.

GAC has a presence in 17 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa where it sells passenger
and commercial vehicles through licensed importers.

“As the frontier for the Fortune Global 500 Company of the automotive industry, Africa
has become very important for the sustainability of GAC Motors. We are therefore
accelerating our growth strategy on the continent by playing a pioneering and leading
role in the development of the automotive industry,”.
