Nigeria’s manufacturing industry is under increasing pressure to embrace modern systems that boost efficiency, competitiveness, and long-term growth. At the 58th Annual General Meeting of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), Ikeja Branch, SeamlessHR reaffirmed its commitment to helping manufacturers achieve this transformation through innovative human resource technologies.
Chidi Orji, Director of Sales at SeamlessHR, highlighted the company’s track record of building digital tools used in more than 20 countries and trusted by over 2,000 organisations spanning diverse industries, including manufacturing. He explained that while SeamlessHR is known for its HR and payroll platforms, it has also designed specialised solutions to meet the needs of blue-collar workers, whose productivity remains vital to industrial performance.
Orji noted that the collaboration with MAN reflects SeamlessHR’s broader goal of empowering sectors that form the foundation of Nigeria’s economy. “With manufacturing central to job creation and national output, digitisation and workforce optimisation are no longer optional—they are essential for sustained competitiveness,” he said.
Femi Gbadegun, Assistant Director of MAN and Executive Secretary of the Ikeja Branch, echoed this view. He stressed that industrialisation is the cornerstone of true development for any country and emphasised the critical role technology plays in driving progress. According to him, SeamlessHR’s digital platforms have shown how innovation can transform workforce management, shifting businesses away from outdated manual processes.
As a technology partner to businesses across Africa, SeamlessHR continues to expand its footprint beyond Nigeria. Its recent collaboration with the Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) underscores its ambition to strengthen industrial sectors across the continent. By aligning with influential associations like MAN and KAM, the company positions itself as a catalyst for sustainable growth and industrial modernisation.
The AGM brought together leading manufacturers, policymakers, and stakeholders nationwide to deliberate on policy reforms, competitiveness, and the role of technology in shaping the future of Nigerian manufacturing. Discussions centered on how innovation, efficiency, and sustainability can unlock the next phase of industrial growth and economic acceleration.
