Nigeria after-sales: response time, parts lead time and billing

After-sales in Nigeria comes down to response time, parts lead time and out-of-warranty billing; with the rainy season runs from May to October, downtime cost grows with every day of waiting.

Key points

After-sales in Nigeria is anchored at Lagos and the sites around it; warranty scope, response time and parts lead time decide what a day of downtime really costs.

Assess parts lead time by category: filters and seals can be stocked locally, while main pumps and control units usually fly in, measured in weeks.
