Lagos 3D-Printing Factory May Help South-East Traders Source Industrial Parts Locally

Lagos has commissioned the Arridex Omnifactory, an advanced manufacturing facility that uses several 3D-printing technologies to produce industrial components locally. The development could interest traders and manufacturers in Nnewi, Aba and Onitsha, where spare-parts businesses are central to the local economy. It may offer an alternative source for some specialised components that are often imported. Should the Federal Government support more advanced manufacturing plants across Nigeria to reduce dependence on imported industrial parts?
