The Minister commended the company for making available, products that would have been imported and thereby saving for Nigeria foreign exchange.

President Muhammadu Buhari, Governor Nasir Ahmed El-Rufai, and the organizer of the Fair, the Kaduna Chamber of Commerce Industry Mines and Agriculture (KADCCIMA, had said that they were encouraged by the yearly support and contributions of Dangote Group to trade promotion in Nigeria.

Speaking on the sideline of the opening ceremony, the Director-General of KADCCIMA, Usman Saulawa extolled the relationship between the Dangote Group and his organisation

“Dangote Group is an international brand in the world of business and manufacturing.

“I can also add that it is a must-have in every home. Dangote is also known for its philanthropic activities through the Dangote Foundation,” he said.

According to him, one of the uniqueness of the 2022 Fair is the flagship event-the Business Round Table on Blue Economy where stakeholders and businesses are brought together

He said companies from India, Pakistan, Morocco, Chad, Senegal, Mali, Niger Republic and Bangladesh are also participating at the Trade Fair.

The companies participating under Dangote Industries Limited are Dangote Cement, Dangote Sugar, NASCON, and Dangote Fertiliser.

A statement from the Corporate Communication Department of the Dangote Group said participants who seek to do business with any of the company’s subsidiaries can avail themselves of such opportunities through a Special Desk at the pavilion.

It described Kaduna State as one of its biggest markets in the country, given its historical position as the political capital of Northern Nigeria.
