Godfrey Nwosu, the President of the Phone and Allied Products Dealers Association of Nigeria (PAPDAN), on Wednesday said that plans were underway to launch two new made-in-Nigeria mobile phone brands before December.
Mr Nwosu said that the proposed phones, iQ and MaxTel, resulted from a partnership involving 20 Nigerian investors; adding that PAPDAN had identified a growing appetite for cutting-edge technologies among telecoms consumers.
“The two Nigerian brands would cater to three market segments, namely, feature, medium and smart phone segments,’’ he said. “Our members occupy a crucial place in the retail end of the technology market. As they sell in excess of 2 million units of phones and allied devices in Nigeria and several economies across West Africa monthly.”
