Smartdrive was setup and incorporated in Nigeria on 26th January, 2015 by a team of dedicated IT
experts who voluntarily left the services of Shell Petroleum Development Company
of Nigeria (Multinational Oil & Gas in Nigeria) with not less than 20 years of
experience to redefine IT Software Business Landscape in Nigeria, Africa as well
as a global foot print.
Since inception till date, we have put together a complete
IT Business Solutions Platform with collaboration with our colleagues in UK &
India with the aim of enhancing better business performance and create real
value for business entrepreneurs in Nigeria and around the world.
Today, Smartdrive is one of the leading Software Development and Internet
Marketing Consulting Company in Nigeria. Since 2015, we have been looking at
creative and innovative ways of delivering Internet base Services to consumers
in Nigeria in a manner that will eliminate fraud and ultimately protects Service
Consumers from being defrauded from Business Transactions. We have deployed a
number of fraud free business solutions into the global market as well as local
market.
We realized that in today’s world, Internet has consolidated itself as a very
powerful platform that has changed forever the way we do business, and the way
we communicate. Internet has become the Universal source of information for
millions of people, at home, at school, and at work. Internet is changing all
the time. Two things, in our opinion, have marked its evolution recently: the
social web and mobile technology. These two innovations have changed the way
people use the Internet. At smartdrive we
facilitate the growth of small businesses by using the Social Media Platform to
show case their goods and services thereby increasing their customer base. We
build and deploy strong Marketing Campaigns on Internet to grow customers for
our clients.
We are committed to using the experienced and expertise gained over the years to
improve your business performance to deliver value to your shareholders. We are
also committed to training young Nigerians to build capacity in IT/IM Support, Subsurface
Data Management, Upstream Gas, Commercial and Petroleum Engineering Application
Development & Support for Oil & Gas Business in Nigeria.
