Atiat Limited Opens Victoria Island Headquarters and Launches Bold Growth Vision
A new chapter for Atiat Limited
Atiat Limited has entered a defining moment in its journey. The company, long recognised as a leader in automotive leasing and finance, has officially unveiled Atiat 3.0, a bold new strategy that transforms its business model into an integrated financial services ecosystem.
The announcement coincided with the grand opening of its new headquarters in Victoria Island, Lagos. The state-of-the-art building is more than an office; it is a symbol of the company’s future. Designed with shared lounges, collaborative spaces, and transparent layouts, the headquarters reflects Atiat’s vision of innovation and customer-centred service.
With Nigeria’s economy growing and its young population demanding smarter financial solutions, the timing could not be more strategic.
The promise of Atiat 3.0
Atiat 3.0 is a holistic ecosystem built around finance, insurance, mobility, and technology. The refreshed business model offers:
- Automotive and Mobility Services: rentals, fleet management, vehicle sales, maintenance, and financing.
- Financial Services: insurance brokerage, digital lending, and structured finance.
- Technology Solutions: IT support, software development, and mobile applications.
By bringing these services together, Atiat is creating synergy across its portfolio. Obiageli Ejiofor, Executive Director of Business Development, described it as “cross-pollinating data and expertise to unlock new value.”
This integrated structure reflects the reality of Nigeria’s underserved market, where millions remain unbanked and insurance penetration is still below one percent of GDP. Atiat’s goal is clear: bridge these gaps with one trusted brand.
A symbol of ambition in Victoria Island
The new headquarters at 161C Raufu Taylor Close, Victoria Island, was officially inaugurated with industry leaders, regulators, and government officials in attendance.
Chairman of Atiat Limited, Obinna Ufudo, captured the company’s ambition in his remarks: “This building represents more than a corporate address; it is a statement of our intention to build an institution that lasts. Atiat is not just a financial services company. We are creating a connected ecosystem that empowers Nigerian businesses and individuals with access to lending, insurance, technology, and mobility solutions all under one roof.”
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Kanayo Eni-Ikeh, added: “We set out to build more than a new office. This is the nerve centre of Atiat 3.0 a place where technology, talent, and vision converge. It brings our people together to innovate faster and serve clients better.”
People and partnerships at the core
At the heart of Atiat’s strategy are people. The new brand identity was shaped by customer feedback and stakeholder input, ensuring it resonates with Nigeria’s dynamic market.
Inside the company, agile teams are experimenting with digital lending platforms, API integrations, and customer education projects. Partnerships with banks, technology firms, and mobility providers are expanding its reach.
Industry experts have applauded the transformation. A Lagos-based banking analyst described Atiat’s move as “timely and strategic,” pointing out that the company is addressing barriers that hold back small and medium enterprises.
Looking beyond Nigeria
While the focus is on serving Nigerian businesses and households, Atiat’s ambitions extend further. Plans are underway to expand across West Africa by adapting the model to other markets.
Kanayo Eni-Ikeh painted a picture of the future: “We want to democratise access to growth. Imagine a small business in Kano being able to secure financing, acquire vehicles for logistics, access software for automation, and protect assets with insurance all through one relationship. That is the ecosystem we are building.”
