GIG transitions to full-scale travel ecosystem with digital platform

GIG Mobility Nigeria says it has transitioned from a traditional transport company into a full-scale global mobility ecosystem, unveiling an integrated platform designed to redefine travel and customer experience.
Its CEO, Enahoro Okhae, disclosed this at the company’s 2026 GIGM Product Conference in Lagos, where it launched a unified digital platform combining multiple mobility services.
Mr Okhae said the move marked a major strategic shift for the company, driven by rising customer demand for seamless and comprehensive mobility solutions. He explained that the platform allowed users to access a wide range of travel services in one place, eliminating fragmentation across the sector.
According to him, the transformation is inspired by consistent customer requests for broader mobility offerings beyond intercity bus services.
Mr Okhae highlighted ‘HireX’, a newly introduced vehicle-hire marketplace, as one of the platform’s flagship innovations, enabling users to access premium vehicles on demand.
He added that ‘PASS by GIGM’ integrated airline bookings, visa services, curated tour packages and other travel solutions into a single interface, positioning the company within the broader travel and tourism value chain.
Mr Okhae said that the company had achieved a long-term vision to build a fully integrated mobility ecosystem that connected people not just to destinations, but to experiences.
On innovation, the CEO revealed that the company was advancing plans to deploy electric passenger vehicles, leveraging data from pilot projects conducted by its logistics arm.
According to him, the initiative will include developing a nationwide charging infrastructure to support sustainable mobility.
Ms Okhae also disclosed plans to strengthen partnerships within the tourism sector, including providing mobility support for tourism activities in Abeokuta, Ogun.
He reaffirmed that technology remained central to the company’s operations and growth strategy.
