Nigeria buys more used machinery than any other country in West Africa, and it also has the most crowded market of people selling it. Half the trade is honest and the other half is somebody passing on a photograph of a machine they have never seen.

Which port

Apapa and Tin Can Island serve Lagos and most of the south west. Onne serves Port Harcourt and the oil and gas region. Pick the one your clearing agent actually works in, because that matters more than which is closer on a map.

China or Morocco

Most Nigerian buyers take the China route, because the machine price is lower and the volume of stock is far bigger. Morocco makes sense when you want the machine quickly, or when you want to fly up and stand in front of it before paying.

What we actually hold

Excavators from twenty to fifty tonnes, wheel loaders, rollers, graders, backhoe loaders, truck cranes and forklifts, all with the hours, the engine and the price printed on their own page. Nothing is a stock photograph.

Clearing in Nigeria

We prepare the commercial invoice, the packing list and the bill of lading and send them before the vessel arrives. Your own licensed agent clears the cargo. We do not publish Nigerian duty rates, because they move and a wrong figure costs you real money at the port.

Why we publish our prices

Because in this trade almost nobody does. A published price means you can compare us against the next exporter before you waste a week on emails, and it means the number cannot quietly change once you are committed.

Questions from Nigerian buyers

What contractors and dealers in Nigeria ask us most.

Buying into Nigeria

Where can I buy used construction equipment for Nigeria?+
From us, shipped to Apapa, Tin Can or Onne from our yards in China and Morocco. Every machine has its price on its own page.
Which Nigerian port do you ship to?+
Apapa and Tin Can for Lagos and the south west, Onne for Port Harcourt and the oil and gas region.
How much does an excavator cost landed in Lagos?+
The machine price is on its page. Tell us which one and your port and we add the freight to give you one landed figure.
Is it cheaper to buy from China or from Morocco?+
China is usually cheaper on the machine itself. Morocco arrives faster and can be visited. We compare both for the machine you want.
How long does shipping to Nigeria take?+
Longer from Qingdao than from Morocco. Give us the machine and the port and we will give you a firm time rather than a guess.
Can you ship several machines together?+
Yes, and it brings the freight per machine down. Send us the full list.

Trusting the seller

How do I know the machine actually exists?+
Ask for video of it running, with the hour meter filmed in the same clip. We send that for any machine, and both our yards are open to independent inspectors.
Who do I pay?+
For China stock, Beaumont Investment Group, LLC, our parent company in the United States, which you can check before you send anything.
Why does paying an American company matter?+
Because you can verify a registered American company from Lagos. Verifying an individual with a foreign bank account is far harder.
What are your payment terms?+
75 percent on confirmation and 25 percent before shipping. You see photographs and video of the machine and the loading before the balance moves.
Do you own the machines or broker them?+
We own them. They stand in our own yards, which is why we can photograph any part of any machine on the day you ask.
Do you give a warranty?+
No. Machines are sold as is, which is exactly why we push photographs, video and inspection before payment rather than after.

Paperwork and clearing

What documents do I get?+
The commercial invoice, the packing list and the bill of lading, sent before the vessel arrives.
Who clears the machine in Nigeria?+
Your own licensed clearing agent. We prepare the documents from our side.
Do you publish Nigerian import duty rates?+
No. They change and a wrong figure costs you money at the port. Your agent will give you the current rate.
Do you handle inland transport in Nigeria?+
No, that is arranged at your end. We handle everything up to loading at the origin port.
What if the paperwork has an error?+
Tell us immediately and we correct and resend. Getting the documents right before arrival is far cheaper than fixing them after.
Can you quote CIF to my port?+
Yes. Tell us the machine and the port and we quote the machine and the sea freight as one figure.

Tell us the machine and the port

Apapa, Tin Can or Onne, with the machine you want. We reply with one landed figure and a real shipping time.
