The Japanese Ambassador to Nigeria, Matsunaga Kazuyoshi, has said the consumer electronics assembly and home appliances factory set up by Sacral Industries in Lagos will create jobs.
He spoke when he led a team from Japanese Embassy, United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO), Daikin Nigeria, and DaiTech Nigeria on a tour of Sacral Industries.
Kazuyoshi said the factory would create jobs for the youths and boost capacity or workforce in engineering.
The envoy said it demonstrates the company’s commitment to the growth of the Nigerian economy.
He assured the company that his country would support businesses to contribute to improving lives.
“I am impressed with the action taken by management of Sacral Industries to set up an assembly plant in Nigeria. It is the right step. With this, jobs will be created, and knowledge can be passed on.
“Beyond this, there are other benefits as reduced pressure on naira. I am confident a great future lies ahead for Nigeria with this,” he said.
