Nigeria’s foremost road transport and logistics company, ABC Transport Plc., has unveiled a new website, aimed at making it much easier for customers to book their tickets and reserve seats online without having to visit ABC terminals.
This came as the company’s Sprinter service commenced full operations in Accra, Ghana last week in order to meet the increasing demands for Sprinter service by customers along the West Coast of Africa.
Speaking on the new website which is enabled for mobile devices with direct links to popular routes, quick helpline, cargo and hospitality services at the recently-concluded training of frontline staff on the usage of the enhanced e-ticketing software, the Deputy Managing Director, ABC Transport Plc., Mr. Jude Nneji, said , “Our new website is primarily designed to suit and drive customer’s convenience.”
He added: “It has overall usability desired which enables customers to book online and access our services.”
The e-ticketing platform is enabled for payment gateway options such as Interswitch (debit/credit cards) and Book-on-Hold (a feature which allows customers to hold their bookings and pay later at their bank of choice). All a customer needs to do is visit the company’s website: www.abctransport.com, click on the online booking platform, fill in the blank spaces with the required information, select their preferred payment option, whether to pay immediately using their debit/credit cards or book-on-hold and pay later at a bank of their choice.
Meanwhile, ABC Transport’s Sprinter service has commenced full operations in Accra, Ghana in order to meet the increasing demands for Sprinter service by customers along the West Coast of Africa.
ABC Sprinter service is designed to satisfy the particular needs of light travelers, small groups and tourists: passengers who like to travel light with little or no luggage, and this service operates medium-size fully air-conditioned buses. Unlike the typical midi-buses deployed by some road transport operators, ABC Sprinter buses are more spacious, with enough legroom necessary to reduce the strain on such long distance trips. In addition, ABC Sprinter buses carry 14 passengers only and boast of neat, cozy interiors. With their compact sizes, the average bus is best suited to operate in challenging road conditions and finding a way through tricky hold-ups along that cross-border corridor. The buses are equipped with speed governors enabling the drivers to avoid over-speeding, based on the strict standards for which ABC Transport is known.
ABC Transport Plc., is Nigeria’s leading coach operator and the only road transport operator currently listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. ABC Transport provides haulage services for LafargeHOLCIM, Nestle Nigeria Plc, Beta Glass, Procter and Gable, and Impacto Nigeria, etc., besides running third party warehousing at Katamkpe, Abuja and the City Transit Inn, a budget hotel in Utako, Abuja.
