Dangote Group put up an impressive pavilion showcasing a wide range of products at the ongoing 20th Abuja International Trade Fair.

The pavilion attracted many participants on Saturday, who visited and expressed interest in Dangote Refinery and the Group’s wide range of products.

The 2025 international trade fair organised by the Abuja Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) began on September 25 and ends on October 6, 2025.

Speaking to newsmen at Dangote’s booth, one of the visitors, Peter Abdul, said he was fascinated by the company’s range of products, especially its sugar, cement, fertiliser, and salt. A participant from Kano, Ibrahim Rogo, expressed interest in exploring opportunities in trading on petroleum products and polypropylene produced by the e company.

Also, members of the diplomatic corps visited the company’s pavilion to inquire about Dangote Sinotruk West Africa Limited, a leading truck manufacturing and assembly company under the Dangote Group, known for enhancing local capacity in logistics and transportation.

ACCI President Hails Dangote’s Contribution to Nigerian Economy ACCI President, Chief Emeka Obegolu, commended President of the Dangote Group Alhaji Aliko Dangote, for his significant contribution in fixing the Nigerian economy.

Obegolu said the Dangote Group has continued to demonstrate commitment to integrating sustainability and innovation in business strategies in its operations across cement, sugar, salt, fertilizers, agriculture, and energy.

“Their investments in local value addition, backward integration, and renewable energy solutions directly align with the Chamber’s vision for a competitive and self-reliant Nigerian economy,” Obegolu stated.

The ACCI president said the Dangote Group, which is a member of the Chamber, has consistently contributed to the growth and visibility of the Abuja International Trade Fair.

“Their presence here today, with their impressive pavilion and diverse product showcase, is a testament to their commitment to trade promotion and to strengthening Nigeria’s industrial base,” Obegolu stated.

He highlighted the benefits of the Chamber’s partnership with the Dangote Group in entrepreneurship, job creation and economic growth He said: “With our four Centres, the Abuja Trade Centre (ATC), the Business Entrepreneurship and Skills Technology (BEST) Centre, the Dispute Resolution Centre (DRC), and the Policy Advocacy Centre (PAC), alongside over 16 active Trade Groups, we provide holistic support to businesses. “In this mission, the partnership with the Dangote Group has been invaluable in deepening trade, expanding opportunities, and advocating for a friendlier business environment,” he added.

Speaking earlier, the company’s General Manager, Hashem Ahmed, said: “Every bag of cement, every tonne of fertiliser, every litre of petroleum product, and every grain of sugar you consume from Dangote represents more than just a product. It represents a job for a Nigerian, a contract for a local supplier, an opportunity for a small business, and a step toward a more prosperous Nigeria.”

Mr. Hashem said the company’s business partners, and mostly distributors, have contributed to unlocking its potential.

He applauded the Abuja Chamber of Commerce for organising the Trade Fair, and for the careful selection of the theme: Sustainability: Consumption, Incentives, and Taxation, adding that it resonates with the vision and mission of the Dangote Group.
