1976 — 2026
Five decades. 535 projects. 600 machines. 800 people. One name Nigeria has trusted to build its roads, bridges, and cities since the very beginning.
In 1976, Mathew A. Okpebholo JP planted a seed in Edo State that would grow into Nigeria's most enduring construction company. From a single determination to build — RAYROYAL grew to shape highways, bridges, and skylines across the nation.
In this Golden Jubilee year, we honour five decades of unbroken excellence and announce our commitment to the next fifty years of building Nigeria.
RAYROYAL is born in Uromi, Edo State. First highway contracts awarded. A legacy begins, one kilometre at a time.
Offices expand to Abuja and Delta State. First federal government highway contracts secured. The name spreads.
RAYROYAL establishes in-house asphalt plants — among the largest in Nigeria — achieving full vertical integration.
Fleet surpasses 400 machines. Bridge and erosion control divisions launch. 17 expatriate specialists join the ranks.
50 years. 535+ projects. ₦10 billion in assets. Nigeria's most enduring builder marks its greatest milestone.
Since our founding in 1976, RAYROYAL Construction Company has built hundreds of kilometres of highways, township roads, dozens of bridges, drains, and both public and private buildings across Nigeria. We are a trusted partner for governmental entities and private developers alike.
In this golden 50th anniversary year, we celebrate five decades of building Nigeria — with over 800 employees including 17+ expatriate specialists, and a fleet of more than 600 heavy-duty machines, ready for the next fifty.

Working with RAYROYAL was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to quality were evident throughout every phase of our project.
