About us
Your trusted partner in global logistics.
Our story
Built on Global Standards.
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 successfully handled a diverse range of cargo across major Nigerian ports, facilitating large-scale import and export operations through key terminals and strengthening our position as an experienced and reliable player in Nigeria’s maritime and trade logistics sector.
Beyond the port
Growth has never been limited to one sector.
Communications
We maintain a strong partnership with MTN Nigeria, managing over ₦24 billion in monthly turnover through telecom service operations.
Quarrying & haulage
Our quarrying and haulage business supports construction and infrastructure projects, supplying high-quality aggregates across Osun and neighboring states with dependable delivery.
Agriculture
We operate over 800 hectares of farmland, producing cashew, palm oil, yam, honey, and cocoa for local consumption and international markets.
