AfricaBuild Lagos 2018: Fairtrade announces 3rd edition

FOLLOWING the emergence of Nigerian economy from the recession as well as the success story recorded by AfricaBuild Lagos this year, Fairtrade announces the 3 rd edition of AfricaBuild Lagos which will take place from 6 to 8 March 2018 at the Landmark Center in Lagos. The event has become the leading international building and interior trade fair in Nigeria.

According to the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, the country managed to emerge from the recession while GDP in the second quarter of 2017 increased by 0.55% in real terms compared to the previous year. Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa with an estimated GDP of 401 billion USD (gtai) in 2017 and is expected to become one of the world’s top 20 economies by 2050.
