The first PRIMLAKS Company was established five years later in 1968 in Kinshasa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo trading in general merchandise, electronics and textiles. Three years later PRIMLAKS commenced business in Lagos, Nigeria on October 1, 1971. That same year the company also started doing business in Brazil.
As more family members and other professionals joined the business, their varying skills and personalities complimented each other and they formed a dream team. The brothers then opened financing offices in London, Hong Kong and Miami to compliment the manufacturing operations in Nigeria, India and Brazil and thus began the rise of PRIMLAKS into a diversified group with companies spanning different industries around the globe. The rest, as they say, is history.
