Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing is the first indigenous automobile company brand in Nigeria, founded in the year 2007 by Innocent Chukuma Nwala, before the invention of the IVM, its founder Innocent Chukuma was a spare part seller. It’s no doubt that being a spare part seller would have greatly helped his knowledge as far as it concerns automobiles. His first automobile design was a motorcycle (the first made in Nigeria motorcycle). These motorcycles were sold for a very low price of about 60,000, this did not reduce his passion. Indeed, there’s no harm in starting small. Over the years the IVM has grown to a standard brand.
