Coscharis Technologies Limited, founded in 1993 as the ICT arm of the diversified Coscharis Group, is rapidly transforming from a distributor of global hardware brands into a strategic driver of Africa’s digital infrastructure.
With recent initiatives like mobile learning tablets, a $4 billion renewable energy project, and a growing ecosystem momentum powered by its Tenda partnership and Marketplace for Africa to Trade, Coscharis is emerging as a critical enabler in Nigeria’s tech future.
Tech Feature: Infrastructure-Driven Engagement
Coscharis operates as an authorized distributor of top-tier OEMs—HPE, Samsung, Huawei, APC Schneider, Microsoft, Cisco, Lenovo, and now Tenda, supported by four major offices and over ten regional branches across Nigeria. Their infrastructure leadership is defined by:
- Launching Tenda hardware with integrated support: routers, access points, base stations, switches, and CPE radios targeted at ISPs and enterprise needs.
- Ensuring rapid response: 30-minute average support, monthly partner training, and anti-counterfeit distribution.
- Pioneering digital education with the Coscharis Mobile School, a durable 10-inch tablet loaded with curriculum-aligned content for primary and secondary learners.
Startup-Like Innovation, Corporate Scale
Although part of a 500-million-dollar conglomerate led by celebrated entrepreneur Cosmas Maduka, Coscharis Technologies operates with startup agility. Its upcoming Marketplace for Africa to Trade platform and $4 billion green power initiative reflect bold sectoral ambition.
These moves echo the mindset of tech startups—rapid iteration, stakeholder engagement, and challenge-led growth.
Brand Storytelling & Market Strategy
Under Managing Director Dr. Sunday Mukoro an alumnus of Delta State University and Harvard Business School. Coscharis is crafting a brand that stands for accessibility, trust, and partnership. Key strategic elements include:
- Partner-first stance: “We don’t compete with our partners; we support them to win,” signaling a shift from transactional to ecosystem-driven operations.
- Grassroots engagement: Capacity-building through academies, tech clubs, and a national footprint ensures resilience across Nigeria’s ICT framework.
- Trustworthy distribution: Exclusive authorized channels curb counterfeit risks and reinforce quality assurance across major cities like Lagos and Abuja.
Why It Matters in Nigeria’s Tech Landscape
Nigeria’s tech aspirations—spanning broadband, e-commerce, fintech, and edtech—require not just innovation, but robust physical infrastructure. Coscharis is driving that foundation.
Through renewal-powered projects, digital education platforms, and reliable hardware supply chains, the company is bridging the gap between ambition and action amid policy uncertainty and economic volatility.
Its deployment of mobile educational devices in both primary schools and remote areas addresses critical learning gaps, while its planned regional trade marketplace positions Nigeria for a new era in intra-African commerce .
Talking Points
A 500‑million‑dollar green power project and a mobile learning tablet? Nigeria needs fewer flashy launches and more infrastructure thinkers like Dr. Mukoro.
The real test: can Coscharis scale its Marketplace for Africa to Trade beyond Lagos and Abuja to support digital entrepreneurs across the continent?
As importer, educator, and platform builder, Coscharis is doing the government’s heavy lifting. But without regulatory alignment, even the best infrastructure could be undermined.
