Managing Director, Chams, Mr. Demola Aladekomo, who disclosed this at the weekend, said that it’s in line with the aspiration of the company to make the firm an enlarged player in the nation’s economy in the coming years.
Chams group has as its subsidiaries four firms, namely Chams Nigeria Limited, Card Centre Nigeria Limited, Paymaster Limited and Supercard Nigeria Limited.
He explained that Card Centre is provider of plastic cards and currently has the largest card production facility on the continent, while Paymaster positions itself as the foremost provider of Point-of-Sales (POS) systems using multi-brand platforms to deliver unique solutions and providing management support. Supercard, on the other hand, manages identification systems for all categories of clients and sectors in the economy.
Mr. Aladekomo equally pointed out that Chams is pursuing a capitalisation programme, which is still at the private placement phase, and has concluded plans to be listed in the Nigerian Stock Exchange by the third quarter of this year.
Apart from the proposed listing on the exchange, Mr. Aladekomo said the firm would establish two new subsidiaries before the end of 2008 as a further step towards positioning Chams to offer other services in the electronic payment industry.
