The centre is an immersive space designed to bring colour choice, design inspiration, and technical expertise closer to Nigerian consumers and professionals. The facility showcases the company’s latest decorative and protective coating solutions while offering personalised guidance for projects spanning housing, commercial developments, marine operations, and industrial production.

The Inspiration centre features an interactive colour zone that allows visitors to visualise finishes, explore global colour trends, and make informed decisions for both small- and large-scale projects: reinforcing Jotun’s commitment to delivering world-class paint and coatings solutions, empowering customers with design inspiration, expert guidance, and immersive displays under one roof.

According to the Managing Director, Regency Overseas Limited, Jagdish Jethvani, the new centre aligns with the company’s broader commitment to sustainable development and local empowerment.

Speaking at the launch, he said: “Our investment in local manufacturing represents a strategic commitment to Nigeria’s broader development agenda.
