40 YEARS of NGC

On 8th July 2004, NGC celebrated reaching its 40th year of operation by holding an awards ceremony and lunch, to thank its employees, directors, distributors and customers for their support.

 

A BRIEF HISTORY OF OUR FORTY YEARS


The Company was formed in 1964 under the name "Hoechst Products Nigeria Limited" to market pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals.

 

Following a period of sustained growth, the Company started manufacturing activities in 1971. The Company became officially quoted on the Nigerian Stock Exchange in 1979 as Nigerian Hoechst PLC.

 

In 1995, Hoechst AG divested its shares in the company in line with a world wide strategy to restructure its business. Consequently, the name of the Company changed to Nigerian-German Chemicals PLC.

 

The Company has collaborations with some companies like Pfizer Consumer Healthcare, Jeyes International, Solvay Pharma, Clariant Oil Services and Kunming Pharmaceutical Corporation and is a major player in the pharmaceutical, consumer healthcare products, bottled water and oil field chemicals industries.

 

The Company's turnover crossed the billion Naira mark for the first time in 1997 and its issued share capital at present is N76.8m.
