6. TheFederalInstituteofIndustrialResearch,
Oshodi (FIIRO) is a parastatal under the
agency of the Federal Ministry of Science
and Technology. FIIRO was the idea of an
economic mission sent to Nigeria in 1953 by
the World Bank. The mission’s observation
was that industrial research activities in
Nigeria were diffused and uncoordinated
with no definite direction. Consequently, a
decision was reached to set the Institute in
1956.
FIIRO’s mandate is to assist in accelerating
the industrialization of the Nigerian
economy through finding utilization for
the country’s raw materials and upgrading
indigenous production technologies.
Services
FIIRO offers the following services:
• Analytical Services
• Engineering Services
• Consultancy Services
• Technology Transfer Services
• Industrial Extension Services
• Textile Testing
• Information Services
TRW Consult thanks the Management of
the FIIRO for their continual patronage.

Printing
Every organisation
conscious of its
brand recognises that
corporate identity
comprises a varied
selection of small,
but very important
essentials, which
conjoin to send out
a single, powerful
message about its
brand.
When it comes to
corporate publishing,
it is important to
understand that every
printed material, in
whatever form it is
produced, contributes
to your corporate
outlook. The ability
to combine resources
and communicate this
powerful message
to clients, investors,
employees and
other stakeholders is
what distinguishes a
reputable brand from
the also-rans.
Through a strategic mix
of ideation, creativity,
conceptualisation,
designs and the
right technology, we
can transform your
corporate publications
into tools that help you
achieve your marketing
objectives and long-
term customer loyalty.

Concepts is an
integrated Process
Improvement and
Publishing firm that

to transform your
corporate prints into

after exposure of your
‘stuff’.
Your call cards,
stationeries, corporate
profile, brochures,
p e r i o d i c a l s ,
newsletters, manuals,

charlatans. Our team
