Karmod Nigeria recently launched a campaign to solve the housing deficit challenge in the country. This campaign involves making prefabricated housing a viable alternative to the brick houses which Nigerians are already used to.
General Manager of the company, Mr Fehim Ozkanca, explained that this move is necessary at this time. This is due to the fact that Nigeria is just getting out of recession. He also explained the suitability of the move, since prefab houses are cheaper to construct. They also take less time and are more eco-friendly when compared to brick houses.
Karmod has built hundreds of classrooms and mass camp houses for internally displaced persons over the last five years. It has also built over 114 of police transit camp structures in over seven states for the Nigerian Police Force. These are inclusive of military camps in north east.

The Karmod Company entered into the Nigerian housing market in 2012. Since then it had been able to handle rapid production and installation of emergency units. Some of the beneficiaries include state and federal governments in Nigeria, United Nations, and UNICEF. The company has also served other local and international relief organizations operating in the country using its new generation container production technology.
Karmod Nigeria relies on the advanced technological Know-how of its parent company in Europe to produce long-lasting habitats compatible to every corner of the country as well as different kinds of weather condition.
