Just when you’re wondering when the manufacturing industry in Nigeria will resurrect, and make good quality products with the tag “Made in Nigeria” displayed proudly upon it, there’s great news finally getting round about a shoe manufacturing company, with its factory here in Lagos.
Global Smartfit Nigeria Limited is a footwear design and manufacturing company, which was established to contribute towards the development of the private industrial sector by locally designing and producing high-quality footwear. With clients in the Oil and Gas sector, military institutions, and schools, Global Smartfit delivers rugged, trendy, and top-class footwear that can sit side-by-side with shoes manufactured anywhere else around the world.
The factory, which is located off Badagry expressway, was built to the best acceptable international standards, with facilities that produce “Back To School” shoes for numerous nursery, primary, and secondary schools; industrial safety shoes for construction and oil & gas companies; and combat/jungle boots & service shoes for the military and paramilitary institutions.

He is a footwear expert with over 20 years’ experience, and has brought his knowledge and expertise to bear fully in the development of Global Smartfit.

The quality of footwear manufactured by Global Smartfit—as can be seen in the pictures displayed—restores the confidence of products made in Nigeria.
Among his achievements in the shoes-manufacturing sector was the huge success in bringing back the glamour of uniformity in school dressing code, as regards quality guaranteed leather shoes for numerous schools across the country.
