This was revealed at the launching of the Zenco Plaza at famous Computer Village in Ikeja, Lagos recently. The plaza will serve as a one-stop shop for all manufactured Tecno phones to avoid buying fake.
According to the Deputy General Manager Tecno Telecoms, Chidi Okonkwo, Tecno is already working with relevant agencies of government such as Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON) and other stakeholders to ensure that the ugly menace is reduced to its minimum.
He expressed enthusiasm over the partnership with Zenco and his company’s achievement in the Nigerian mobile phone market especially in the last quarter of 2012.
He noted that the partnership with Zenco is part of his company’s commitment to meet the yearnings of its customers across the country so that its products are readily accessible.
“Nigeria market, for us, is a major market in Africa and we are doing everything possible to ensure that our customers have maximum value for their money,” he said.
Speaking on the new partnership, Zenco Communications Managing Director, Cletus Oragwa, said Tecno range of products remained reliable, user friendly and durable.
“We are happy to partner Tecno Telecoms Limited, makers of all range of Tecno Phones. As you know the company is a global leader in dual SIM manufacturing, we are therefore excited to associate with them and will ensure that Tecno products get to all our customers within the nooks and crannies of Nigeria especially in Lagos,” he said.
Oragwa, who pointed out that his company has been in partnership with Tecno since 2007 said he is certain that the company will take the lead as the preferred phone company in next five years.
“We met Tecno in 2007 and we saw a lot of potentials in them. Today, we are happy that through its innovative product development, the company has become the sector leader especially in dual SIM phone range and will definitely take over the mobile phone market in the next five years,” he said.
