Black Pelican marks milestone, pledges enhanced interior solutions

In the past 18 years, Black Pelican has been providing interior solutions in the Nigerian real estate market and that, according to authorities of the company, is enough reason for them to roll out drums in celebration as they did recently.

Michael Owolabi, the chief executive officer of the company, says they are elated to celebrate the company’s growth trajectory and market leadership within the period under review.

Black Pelican is Nigeria’s foremost interior solutions provider, trading under 3 trade names – IL Bagno, Bathrooms Direct and Technogym. The company has been providing high quality interior solutions in the real estate industry and is now known and celebrated by discerning clients far and near for its high quality Bathroom fittings, Kitchens, Doors, Furniture, Lighting, Tiles and gym equipment.

Speaking on this great milestone which they have achieved over the years, Owolabi said, “we saw the gap in the market and started out with the aim of providing high quality bathroom solutions and, over time, morphed into a more robust solutions provider as the needs of our clients demanded.”
