Made in Nigeria

There was a time in my life when I did not know where to
buy clothes, shoes and bags in Nigeria. I literally always
had to wait till summer to shop for the year, or ask a family
member who was abroad to send necessary items to us
in Nigeria whenever we need them, but it’s different today. I just
got back from my holiday and, I honestly did not find clothes that I
liked on the shop floor in the United Kingdom and Dubai. I decided
to reflect on this and realized this was happening because I could
get most things I needed in Nigeria now and I could even customise
to my exact taste with the designers now in Lagos. This doesn’t
end with clothes.
FROM
OUR
GUEST
EDITOR
Nigerians are going the extra mile to locally produce amazing
goods and services that are competing in global markets. From
clothes, to paints, to lotion, to bags, to food, to chocolate and even
furniture. It was such an honour to feature some amazing entrepreneurs
who have amazing products and services that are Made
in Nigeria. As an entrepreneur who also has a brand with products
made in Nigeria, I totally understand all the challenges in the manufacturing
sector, so I applaud all the entrepreneurs who are facing
all the odds to produce amazing goods and services despite the
challenges in our system.
In honour of Nigeria’s Independence, I’m excited to introduce
to you some of the best Made in Nigeria brands across different
sectors who are consistently contributing to the Nigerian economy
through their products and services. I hope you not only enjoy this
edition, but also patronise them and continue the cycle to improve
our economy because the entire value chain depends on you, the
consumer.
Happy Reading!
