SAHCO Soars with 155% Profit Surge in Half-Year 2025, Driven by Operational Excellence
Skyway Aviation Handling Company Plc (SAHCO) has announced a stellar performance in its unaudited half-year financial results for the period ended 30 June 2025, recording a remarkable 155.45 per cent surge in profit after tax, a feat attributed to robust revenue growth, strategic partnerships, and improved operational efficiency.
According to the results released yesterday, the aviation ground handling giant posted a revenue of N21.063 billion, representing a 74 per cent increase compared to the N12.11 billion generated in the corresponding period of 2024. This unprecedented growth was fuelled by rising demand for aviation handling services, the company’s regional and local operational expansion, and strengthened strategic alliances.
Key investments in workforce development, infrastructure upgrades, compliance with enhanced industry regulations, and targeted revenue optimisation also played a pivotal role in boosting bottom-line performance.
Commenting on the results, SAHCO Plc’s Chairman, Dr Taiwo Afolabi, CON, described the company’s achievement as a testament to its resilience and strategic foresight.
“This outstanding performance reflects the dedication of our team, the loyalty of our clients, and our strategic focus on sustainable growth. As the aviation sector continues to rebound, SAHCO is well-positioned to build on this momentum and deliver even greater value to shareholders and stakeholders,” he said.
The company reaffirmed its commitment to sustaining service excellence, investing in technological innovation, and expanding its operational footprint to reinforce its leadership in the ground handling and logistics sector.
SAHCO, a leading provider of aviation ground handling services in Nigeria, operates across all commercially run airports in the country. Its service portfolio includes passenger handling, ramp services, cargo and warehousing, aviation logistics, and premium lounge operations for both domestic and international airlines — with safety, efficiency, and service quality at the core of its operations.
With this performance, SAHCO has signalled its readiness to leverage the aviation sector’s ongoing recovery, strengthen market dominance, and deliver sustained value for its stakeholders.
