Agency chooses London for its first-ever international office

An agency specialising in Nigerian clients has opened its first international office in London.

Jide Taiwo & Co’s office will open next month with new manager Olawunmi Olashore says “I am delighted to be returning to the UK to head up our first international office. I look forward to combining my local and professional knowledge to provide our clients with a truly international quality service. My focus will be to connect with new and existing real estate clients, those looking into buying, leasing, selling, investing, valuing or having their properties managed.

Jide Taiwo & Co, which has been in operation since 1980, is one of the biggest property firms in Nigeria with 41 outlets in Nigeria and a team of 400 including over 60 chartered surveyors.  

The firm offers agency, valuation, property management, facility management, project management, property development and public sector work.

The agency’s managing director, Ibrahim Mohammed, says: “We have already been assisting some clients overseas, for example in Dubai and London, with great success. 

“It therefore seemed a logical next step to bring our quality service closer to our international client base and offer them a talented and experienced team enabled with the best technology. Our ability to connect our clients’ portfolios across borders gives the added benefit of a single well-managed portfolio providing optimal returns.”
