Power backup is no longer a luxury in Nigeria; it has become a necessity for every household. However, choosing the right inverter battery can be overwhelming, especially with the market flooded by fake brands and substandard imports. So, what’s the way forward? The story of Obi, a dedicated primary school teacher, might offer some insight.
At 34, Obi was committed to giving back to his community by offering free tuition to underprivileged children in his neighbourhood. His lessons were impactful, and his students thrived until frequent afternoon power cuts started to disrupt his classes, affecting the children’s learning.
That’s when one of the parents suggested he switch to Tubular Inverter Batteries. Enter Star Plus Battery.
Obi reached out to us, and our team of experts assessed his needs and installed a reliable inverter battery system tailored for his home. Within just a month, the difference was clear.
While the rest of the neighbourhood continued to face regular power outages, Obi’s home remained powered. His students resumed their lessons without interruption, enjoying not only education but also a dependable power supply.
Role of Flagship Company Metal Manufacturing Nigeria Limited (MMNL)
Increasing Worker Efficiency
Nigeria’s power sector has been facing severe challenges, including grid collapse and prolonged power cuts, for an extended period. Moreover, a lack of authentic company support makes it difficult for households and businesses to choose the right battery type and brand accordingly.
Metal Manufacturing Nigeria Limited (MMNL) is the flagship company of Star Plus Battery. On June 24, 2025, we announced an approximate $50 million investment plan aimed at expanding our production capacity to 100,000 units per month.
Nigeria’s inverter battery manufacturing sector is struggling for survival and needs appropriate support for empowerment. Addressing this hurdle, MMNL had improved operational efficiency and workforce skills with extensive technical training for local employees. Similarly, we have introduced ventures into the mining sector to secure raw materials for battery manufacturing.
Integration of Streamlined Supply Chain
MMNL’s strategic focus includes completing its supply chain with backward and forward integration. The company has invested $25 million in a battery production and lead oxide manufacturing plant in Shagamu, Ogun State.
With current production at 30,000 units, MMNL plans to double this capacity by the start of the new financial year and further expand to over 100,000 units by 2027-2028. We are emphasizing the development of a new greenfield production plant and additional backward integration projects, including lead-zinc ore mining and beneficiation.
Developing Local Market
Nigeria represents a pathway to growth for us in the Central, East, and West African Regions. In recent years, small and medium-sized enterprises nationwide have experienced rapid growth. For instance, small businesses have gained an incremental market share of 94% businesses in the country.
Owing to this economic growth, MMNL has focused on understanding the market better and serving it more effectively. We collaborate with local partners to support the growth of SMEs and provide financial contributions simultaneously. Pioneering innovation, driving value creation, and improving the lifestyle of local communities.
Sustainable Operator
Lead-acid-based tubular inverter batteries pose a significant environmental threat when disposed of after their lifecycle ends. Addressing this issue, MMNL had focused on recycling used inverter batteries. We recycle waste and transform it into fresh, usable products. We are consistent in quality, service, price, and supply of inverter batteries. With an emphasis on sustainability, we ensure that each battery can offer reliable power backup without hampering the ecological footprint.
