Elizade Nigeria Limited, the leading auto dealer of Toyota vehicle in Nigeria has concluded plans to reward her customers with four brand new Toyota Avensis cars during her “40+1 Anniversary” celebrations.

This was disclosed by the Managing Director, Elizade Nigeria Limited, Mr Demola Ade-Ojo, during a media conference to announce the anniversary details which recently held the company’s Lagos office.

Ade-Ojo said, Elizade, Toyota Nigeria Limited’s number one dealer, said the 41 years celebration of Elizade tagged “40+1 Anniversary” will offer the company a chance to appreciate customer loyalty.

He said it will also be a season for the compant to “re-focus and look ahead to a greater tomorrow.”

Speaking further at the event, the obviously excited Ade-Ojo said, “one could count at the tips of one’s fingers the Nigerian firms that have survived for over two decades, not to talk of four decades.”

He said the business terrain had really been tough with its peculiar instability and uncertainties, to the extent that the chances of a business outliving a decade is as slim as the chances of finding a penguin in the tropics, but the grace of God and determination to succeed had sustained them over te years.

“This is not just a result of our acclaimed good works, neither is it about our excellent offerings. This definitely goes beyond the entrepreneurial sagacity of the founder and the succeeding board members. This is simply, with all sense of gratitude, all about grace.

“Here we are, exactly 41 years after my parents founded this business, we are still strong, viable and very alive,” Ade-Ojo said.

To commemorate Elizade Nigeria Limited’s 41 years of doing business in Nigeria, he said the company will between July and September, 2012, give out a brand new Toyota Avensis car to her top volume buyers in each month.

Also speaking, the Marketing Director, Elizade Nigeria Limited, Mr Olu Tikolo, said unique instant gifts would go out with every vehicle purchased over the same period, adding that “the anniversary promo is all about the Elizade customer and loyalists.”

The fourth brand new Toyota Avensis, Tikolo said would be given to “the highest volume buyer in the past six years, the 35th anniversary being the last the company celebrated elaborately.

Apart from the car gifts,  Tikolo said “Elizade Nigeria Limited’s top 41 customers over the past six years would also be appreciated with various mouth-watering gifts at the event.
