Lagos Hosts 300 MSMEs at ‘Lagos on Display’ Market Fair

Lagos Hosts 300 MSMEs at ‘Lagos on Display’ Market Fair

Lagos State has launched a three-day “Lagos on Display” Access to Market Fair at JJT Park, Alausa, bringing together about 300 micro, small and medium-sized businesses. The fair offers product exhibitions, discounted sales, on-the-spot loan applications and enrolment for the Ilera Eko health insurance scheme. Officials said the initiative is designed to help entrepreneurs move beyond financing by connecting them with customers and wider market opportunities. The Lagos State Employment Trust Fund said it has disbursed more than ₦15 billion to over 10,000 businesses. Residents were urged to support locally made products to help businesses grow and create more jobs across the state.

Which support will matter most to these businesses after the three-day fair ends: new customers, loan access, or ongoing market connections?

How will the fair measure whether participating MSMEs actually gain lasting value afterward?

Bringing about 300 MSMEs into one market fair can give smaller brands visibility they may struggle to get on their own.

Discounted sales and loan applications sound useful, but the real test is whether participating businesses gain sustainable demand beyond the event.

Visitors can compare products, ask businesses about delivery and repeat purchases, then save contacts for suppliers worth supporting after the fair.
