We understand the importance of maintaining our operational standards and ensuring the utmost satisfaction of our customers. We have taken proactive measures to address the challenges and mitigate their impact on our operations,” he said.
Makanjuola disclosed that in recent times, Caverton Marine has successfully diversified its business into boat building, expanding its portfolio of services, noting that this strategic move allows the comany to leverage on its experience and expertise in the maritime industry, “and we are pleased with the progress we have made in this area.”
He also announced that Caverton Marine has been awarded the ISO 9001:2015 certification by the Standards Organization of Nigeria (SON), which recognition is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to quality and excellence in its operations. “We have continuously invested in our MRO facilities, technology, and human capital to ensure that we provide excellent maintenance solutions to our clients.
