According to Salim, the adoption of the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system framework reflects Rainoil’s vision of always providing quality products to their customers.

He also said the certification provides Rainoil Limited with strong, globally recognized, and acceptable solutions to the challenges of managing quality and delighting customers.

Expressing delight at the company’s achievement, the Group Managing Director of Rainoil Limited, Dr. Gabriel Ogbechie, said the certification affirms Rainoil’s adherence to internationally acceptable standard requirements and the ability of the company to get it right the first time and always.

Ogbechie assured the team of SON that the company will ensure the system remains healthy. According to him, Rainoil has, from its first day of operation, placed a premium on top quality and has since remained committed to offering quality products and excellent service delivery.
