The Allied Advantage
Allied Air is presently the only Nigerian-registered cargo airline and the biggest B737F cargo operator in the whole of West and Central Africa.
Allied Air Nigeria Limited is today the only indigenous airline with its own purpose-built transit cargo shed at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport. Allied Air was voted Airline of the Year for a record three consecutive times (1999–2001).
With the continued growth in the air cargo industry and Nigeria at the forefront of this expanding and dynamic air freight market, Allied Air Cargo is well positioned to expand her network and fleet size to take maximum advantage of these emerging opportunities. With the IOSA certification of Allied Air, she is the first cargo airline to be certified in Africa — a certification that further reinforces her position as a leading cargo airline on the continent.
First IOSA-certified cargo airline in Africa and a registered member of IATA, with an exemplary air safety record.
Voted Airline of the Year three consecutive times (1999–2001), with letters of commendation for on-time delivery and efficient performance.

Our Clientele
The Central Bank of Nigeria engages the services of Allied Air on a daily basis for air transportation of sensitive security materials, currency and equipment. This relationship started in 2004, and years later we remain their most reliable partner in the provision of logistics and air transportation services. The CBN demands a high level of punctuality and places the highest premium on security in the movement of her materials and equipment. We have over this period received letters of commendation from the CBN for on-time delivery and efficient performance — including a special letter of commendation in 2016 for our outstanding performance in providing logistical support during the 2015 general elections.
DHL, the leading global courier and forwarding company, is another long-term customer of Allied Air, engaging us since 2006. They rely on Allied Air to transport their high-revenue and critically time-sensitive cargo to and from their Lagos hub to neighbouring countries such as Ghana, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Equatorial Guinea, Congo and Cameroon on a daily basis. We have consistently met all of DHL's performance targets, every year.
We also serve a diverse group of businesses and trading companies engaged in the very lucrative import and export business between China, Europe and West/Central Africa. The fact that we have served the CBN and DHL for well over a decade is an attestation to the quality of service provided by Allied Air.
From central banks to global couriers — we deliver, on time.
