Registered as Anambra Motor Manufacturing Company Limited (ANAMMCO Limited), the Company was incorporated on January 17, 1977. The Foundation Stone laying ceremony was performed on May 12, 1978 while the factory was commissioned on July 8, 1980 by the first executive President of Nigeria, Alhaji Shehu Shagari. Official production activities started in January, 1981.

Originally a joint venture between the Federal Government of Nigeria and Daimler-Benz AG (now Daimler AG) of Germany, the Government has, today, almost divested from the Company and part of its interests has been sold to private investors. The plant remains a shining example of a viable economic and technological co-operation between Nigeria and foreign investors. Daimler AG has also divested 100% from the company.
