Your Trusted Partner in Global Logistics.

WOLID International Services Ltd. is built on over 20 years of experience and excellence within Nigeria’s maritime industry. As an ISO-certified company, we deliver structured, compliant, and efficient shipping solutions tailored to the realities of Nigeria’s major ports, including Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports in Lagos.

Over the years, we have managed the operations of more than 500 import and export vessels, moving large-scale cargo across international trade routes with precision and speed. Our core services include agency services, freight forwarding, customs processing, cargo operations, and crew support.

We combine deep operational understanding of port systems with a practical, solution-focused approach, giving clients the confidence of working with a partner that understands both the complexities of Nigeria’s port environment and the demands of international logistics.

Our Story.

In 1999, WOLID International Services Ltd. set out with a simple goal: to bring structure, reliability, and trust to Nigeria’s complex shipping and logistics space. Founded by Ayanbamiji Oluwole Idowu, WOLID started as a modest freight forwarding firm defined by high standards, attention to detail, and operational discipline.

As our reputation grew, so did our scope. By 2007, WOLID had expanded into full shipping agency operations, taking on vessel representation, cargo coordination, and end-to-end logistics support across Nigeria’s busiest ports. What began as a small operation evolved into a trusted name known for getting vessels in and out efficiently, no matter the complexity.

Over the years, we have handled a wide range of bulk cargo, from fertilizer and rice to corn, bauxite, and sulphur, across Lagos, Onne, and Warri ports. Through ENL Terminal, we facilitate bulk soya bean meal exports at scale, positioning us as a key player in Apapa’s export operations.

Growth for us has never been limited to one sector. We have steadily built a diversified portfolio that reflects both opportunity and expertise.

  • In agriculture, we operate over 800 hectares of farmland, producing cashew, palm oil, yam, honey, and cocoa for local consumption and international markets.
  • In communications, we maintain a strong partnership with MTN Nigeria, managing over ₦24 billion in monthly turnover through telecom service operations.
  • Our quarrying and haulage business supports construction and infrastructure projects, supplying high-quality aggregates across Osun and neighboring states with dependable delivery.

Today, WOLID stands as a business shaped by experience and driven by results. From port operations to inland ventures, our focus remains the same: to deliver with precision, create real value, and build lasting trust with every client we serve.
