SOAN aim by this Conference and Exhibition to provide a platform for Government and its agencies, regulators, and stakeholders in the logistics, maritime and shipping industry, the IOCs and indigenous players to debate policy formulations and a forum to create alliances.

Furthermore, it is a key platform for Nigerian Content Development, which as indigenous ship owners, we actively support. With the increased focus on local ship building in the near term, the attendant investment and development opportunities are innumerable.

We hope to be a catalyst in showcasing this and contributing to Continental, National and regional multilateral trade
