Nigeria, with a population of 180 million people, is known as the gateway to Central Africa because many suppliers are attracted to its large market, which is funded through export sales of oil, mining and raw materials. There are over 16 million automobiles in the capital Lagos alone.

Besides Discover Energy and Daewoo International, iQ Power Asia has many other active exporters who supply countries as diverse as Russia, Indonesia and Guatemala. Since the change in management, iQ Power Asia has made good on all outstanding deliveries and many customers have started making regular monthly orders. Mr. Nnamdi has indicated that he will place orders for over 5.000 batteries per month and will grow the business quickly.

Batteries with iQ Power technology are designed to generate better performance in Start-Stop applications and to meet the growing demands of electronic usage in vehicles today. Electrolyte mixing is the first significant innovation to the flooded starter battery in decades. Automatic mixing of electrolyte inside the battery ensures uniform acid density for higher sustained performance throughout the entire life of the battery. This prolongs plate life by eliminating acid stratification and thermal gradients, delivering greater material utilization for a lower cost per cycle over conventional batteries. The patented technology was awarded the coveted Automechanika innovation award 1st prize in 2010.
