Dangote Industries Limited, a leading African conglomerate, announced its continued support for industrialization across the continent, citing its strategic partnership with the Abuja Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) for the upcoming 2025 Abuja International Trade Fair.
The company is a key sponsor of the fair, which opens on September 25, 2025. According to a statement from the company’s spokesperson, Anthony Chiejina, the event provides a crucial platform to engage with stakeholders and boost intra-African trade.
The theme of the 20th annual fair, “Sustainability: Consumption, Incentives, and Taxation,” aligns with Dangote Group’s core business philosophy. Fatima Wali-Abdurrahman, a Senior Adviser to the company’s president, highlighted that nearly all of Dangote’s business units—from cement and sugar to petroleum products and trucks—will be featured at the event.
She also noted the company’s long-standing support for local content development in Nigeria and its commitment to the ACCI’s new “Buy Africa, Build Africa” (BABA) initiative.
For the ACCI, the collaboration with Dangote is a major win. The Chamber’s President, Chief Emeka Obegolu, stated that the partnership reflects a shared goal of driving economic growth and creating business opportunities. He expects the 12-day fair to attract over 100,000 participants from various sectors, including government agencies, multinational corporations, and diplomatic missions.
The event, which aims to be both a marketplace and a platform for showcasing green innovations, is designed to enhance networking and collaboration. The ACCI leadership emphasized that Dangote’s participation not only increases the fair’s global visibility but also reinforces its mission to promote sustainable development and investment.
