RisingRose Nigeria Wins Big @ BoICT 2014

 RisingRose Nigeria Limited, a fast growing courier outfit in Nigeria, was recently crowned the ‘Indigenous Courier Company of the Year’ at this year’s Beacon of Information Communications (BoICT) award held in Lagos recently.

RisingRose, incorporated on September 24, 2009, was licenced by the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) to operate courier services on December 21, 2009.

The Company commenced full scale business operations on August 10, 2010.

With full determination to excel and carve a niche for itself in the industry, at a time when one of the challenges bedeviling the industry was inconsistencies in mails and financial documents delivery, RisingRose came on board with full determination to bring to bear best international practices in the industry.

Ken Nwogbo, publisher and chief executive officer, Communication Week Media, organizers of the award, said that RisingRose distinguished itself in the industry which attracted several of her customers and other Nigerians to vote the Company as an amiable brand in the nation’s courier sector.

He said that during the nomination and voting periods, RisingRose was seen as transparent in its practices, thereby, setting it apart from others.

Nigeria CommunicationsWeek recall that the practice of reporting and recovering missing customer’s package is a tradition that has both endeared as well as led to the quick rise of RisingRose.

In restoring investors’ confidence in the delivery of investors’ documents, RisingRose applies strict business procedures in dealing with its client’s documents.

Speaking on the award, Linda Austin-akuta, managing director of RisingRose Nigeria, said, “We feel highly honored and privileged to be given this award. We thank the organizers of this event, Nigeria communicationsWeek, for this wonderful recognition.

“We are highly humbled for being chosen amongst many indigenous courier companies in Nigeria at the Beacon of ICT 2014 indigenous courier company of the year. We dedicate this award to God Almighty, for He is the foundation of our company and without Him nothing, absolutely nothing could have been possible. Special thanks go to my husband, Mr. Austin Akuta who stood solidly behind RisingRose.

“We wish to express our sincere gratitude to the management and staff of courier regulatory department of NIPOST, management and staff of Bulkpost Venture of NIPOST, for given us the platform and support, to operate courier services in Nigeria and their support and encouragement throughout these years. Also, the past and present leadership of ANCO cannot be thanked enough for recognizing us.

“Also, to the management and staff of RisingRose Ngeria ltd who always work as a team to achieve all our set goals; this award is a testimony of their quality work. To everyone who had made up his or her time and resources to vote for us, we say a big thank you and pray that every good things of life will not elude you all.

“Our wealth of experience in delivering investors’ documents has continued to earn the trust, confidence and loyalty of our clients.

“Our strategy in RisingRose is to deliver outstanding customer service that will provide a one-stop-solution, by treating our customers as if they are the only customers we have. We try as much as possible to get deliveries done within a tight contractual timeline,” Austin-akuta added.
