AMMASCO was incorporated on 3rd October 1997, commenced full commercial operations on November 16th, 1997. As the first lubricant blending plant in Northern Nigeria as well as the first of such companies to be owned by a Northerner, AMMASCO has never looked back.

AMMASCO, which was incorporated to engage in general marketing and blending of lubricants and other petroleum and allied products, has since diversified to other allied fields of enterprises and businesses.
At the very top of its mission is to become a major oil company in West Africa, manufacturing high-quality lubricants and allied products for diverse consumers and market needs. AMMASCO hopes to achieve this defining mission through the deployment of highly competent personnel, high-quality raw material inputs, and cutting-edge technology.
In order to reach these goals, AMMASCO enlisted the support of a renowned group as its technical partner- LUBRIZOL INC USA.
