Organized by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and supported by the Nigerian Federal Government and Lagos State Government, the fair attracts exhibitors from nearly 20 countries across Africa, Europe, America, and Asia. Attendees primarily come from ECOWAS countries. Currently, it is the largest and most influential trade fair in West Africa, serving as an important platform for economic and trade cooperation and exchange in Africa.

Since 2002, Shandong Zhenghe International Exhibition Co., Ltd. has successfully organized the participation of Chinese companies for many years.

The exhibition area covered 2,500 square meters. The "China Pavilion" was divided into four areas: machinery and vehicle exhibition area, building materials exhibition area, hardware exhibition area, and home appliances and daily necessities exhibition area, showcasing high-quality Chinese products and the excellent image of Chinese enterprises. According to incomplete statistics, nearly 30,000 people visited the China Pavilion during the exhibition, including more than 9,000 professional buyers. Exhibitors generally believed that the Nigerian market has huge potential and needs further development. Some exhibitors have already set up branches or offices in Lagos.

Many guests from the Chinese Consulate General in Lagos, the Economic and Commercial Office of the Chinese Embassy in Nigeria, the Economic and Commercial Section of the Chinese Consulate General in Lagos, the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, and the Nigeria-China Business and Trade Association visited the China Pavilion during the exhibition and had enthusiastic exchanges with the exhibitors. The exhibition also received extensive media attention. NTA2, NTA10 television stations, Nigeria Voice radio station, China Central Television, Xinhua News Agency, China Radio International, and 27 media outlets including Punch, The Guardian, Business Day, The Sun, The Nation, Saturday Newswatch, and NAN, provided follow-up reports on the "China Pavilion".

Introduction to the Nigerian Market

◆ With a population of 180 million, it is the most populous country in Africa, possessing a huge consumer market.

◆ As a member of OPEC, it has the largest oil reserves and production in Africa and is one of the world's top five LNG exporters. It has strong payment capacity and strong market purchasing power.

◆ Africa's largest economy and the largest market in West Africa, leading regional integration. The World Bank and other authoritative economic assessment agencies are optimistic about its economic development, making it the right time to enter the Nigerian market.

◆ Rich in agricultural, forestry, and mineral resources, but with underdeveloped infrastructure and a weak manufacturing base. The government is improving infrastructure, and high-quality and inexpensive Chinese goods are very popular locally. At the same time, the Nigerian government encourages Chinese companies to import Nigerian agricultural, forestry, and mineral products.

◆ Maritime trade accounts for nearly 70% of West Africa's total trade. 80% of Nigeria's commercial activities are concentrated in Lagos. As Nigeria's economic, financial, industrial, and logistics center, Lagos is the best springboard for companies to enter the West African market.
