  • Chamber to attract FDI at trade fair

    Chamber to attract FDI at trade fair

    The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry is to complement government’s efforts at attracting foreign investment.

    The chamber has concluded arrangements for Business-to-Business (B2B) meetings between indigenous and foreign exhibitors, seeking trade opportunities and partnerships at this year’s Lagos International Trade Fair.

    According to a statement by the Director-General, Mr Muda Yusuf, this is in line with the theme of the 2012 Fair: Promoting trade for sustainable economic transformation, and renewed drive by government and interest groups to showcase and promote the economy’s potential.

    He said the chamber shifted the venue of the fair from the Lagos Trade Fair Complex this year because of ongoing construction on the Lagos-Badagry Expressway. The expansion of the road posed huge challenges to commuters and participants at the fair last year.

    “Already, feedback from registered and potential exhibitors, especially from abroad, indicates satisfaction with the shift of the fair to the Tafawa Balewa Square, which is easily accessible from most parts of Lagos. It is envisaged that this year will witness an increase in participation of exhibitors and visitors.”

    Last year witnessed participation by exhibitors from eleven countries, including Canada, Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia, China, Taiwan, Singapore and India. Others were Ghana, Republic of Benin and Cameroun. Enquiries have also been received from the United Arab Emirates and Malaysia this year.
