Agege International Trade Fair is an innovative tool developed to help the common entrepreneur in Lagos state to grow.
Our vision is to create the largest discount market in the whole of
Lagos state, with a major focus on the Lagos mainland. We are on a mission to re-write the history of Trade and commerce in Lagos state.
In 2019 when we held our first edition at NYSC camp, we recorded great success with about 200 vendors with about 10,000 visitors.
Based on our experience, we have decided to put together a power-packed event for our 2021 edition.

In respective of the numbers of your vendors, a trade exhibition can only be said to be successful when vendors make Big sales, so we are more focused on how all our vendors will get a return on their investments.
To ensure maximum publicity for our vendors, we have outlined major publicity strategy as follows
- We have partnered with LASAA (Lagos state signage and advertising Agency) so as to get good numbers of billboards around the state
- We have partnered with over 20 media houses including ( TV, Radio, and Print media)
- BRT bus / Danfo / Marwa will be branded
- We are also in partnership with all Local governments in the states and CDA and CDC in Lagos state so as to make sure the news goes around the state.
- We are partnering with over 100 churches and mosques around Lagos state.
- We have created a special activation team that will be on the street of Lagos to invite our target customers once it’s two weeks to the fair. Our Activation team would be visiting over 100 estate residences within the state.
- We will also be working with a lot of online influencers to drive sales online like Black Camaru & Emini Oba, the cute Abiola, Jigan Babaoja, Woli Agba and IPM crew, Tunde Ednut amongst others. Actors, actresses and A-list artists will also trend this event online.
With the full support of CSP Yinka Egbeyemi, the Commander, Lagos Rapid Response Squad, we would been able to safeguard our customers’ and vendors’ properties. Also, all police stations surrounding Agege are fully involved in the security process, to ensure maximum safety of everybody during the fair.
As our usual tradition, we will be having free medical/free drug stands for children and kids. Also, we will be giving out Free Stands to book vendors. This is because we want them to sell at a very discounted price so as to encourage a reading culture amongst the youths.
We are using this medium to call on the government parastatals in charge of trade, commerce and industry in the state to really sit down to look at how they can lend support to trade fair organisers
It will go a long way in boosting trade and commerce in the state. It will also reduce unemployment.
