El-Jahab Mubarak Nig Ltd was incorporated in 1988 to take a family-owned business to greater heights. The business has been handed down through generations since 1975 in Maiduguri, in the ancient Borno Province, where it began manufacturing metal and leather products.
It became known for metal badges, buckles, whistles, chains and buttons, then added embroidery and the production of hand and machine-made accoutrements for the Nigerian Armed Forces, the Police, para-military outfits and the private sector. Today we also finish uniforms, shirts, caps, mugs, towels, trophies and more, all to our clients' taste.
