Shipping & Delivery
We deliver industrial equipment across Nigeria with care and reliability.
How delivery is priced
It depends where the goods are. Some items are held in Nigeria and have already cleared customs; the rest are imported to order from supplier warehouses abroad. Checkout works out which applies to your cart — including a cart that contains both — and quotes a single delivered line to your Nigerian address.
Items held in Nigeria are charged a Delivery line: courier carriage only. There is no import duty and no clearing charge, because nothing is being imported or cleared.
Imported items are charged an Import, freight & clearing line, which covers:
- Carrier freight from the supplier's warehouse
- Estimated Nigerian import duty on the landed value
- Customs clearing and handling
On imported consignments FirstSupply is the importer of record: we handle the customs entry and clearing, and you receive the goods delivered — you do not deal with Customs. Duty and clearing figures shown at checkout are estimates; where the actual amount differs materially we contact you before shipping. Nigerian VAT of 7.5% is applied to the invoice total.
Delivery Areas
We deliver to all major cities and industrial zones across Nigeria, including:
- Lagos (including Ikeja, Apapa, Lekki, and industrial estates)
- Port Harcourt and the Niger Delta region
- Abuja (FCT)
- Kano, Kaduna, and Northern Nigeria
- Other locations by arrangement — contact us for a quote
Delivery Timelines
| Location | Estimated Delivery |
|---|---|
| Items held in Nigeria | 2–5 business days |
| Imported — Lagos, Port Harcourt, Abuja & other major cities | 2–6 weeks |
| Remote / rural areas | Add final-leg transit to the above |
These ranges apply to items imported to order, and cover supplier dispatch, international freight, customs clearing and final delivery. Goods already held in Nigeria skip all of that and ship on the domestic timeline above. Timelines are estimates and vary with origin, freight mode and clearing.
