The first edition of The Big 5 Construct Nigeria is
raising the country’s building and construction sector to international
prominence.
This year, 100 companies from around the world are
getting ready to gather at the Landmark Centre in Lagos from 9 to 11 September
for Nigeria’s largest construction event ever. Here, they will present their
most innovative products to over 5,000 Nigerian industry professionals who are
expected to visit the show.
Confirmed brands include regional and global
leaders like Palfinger, Cibes Lift, KELM, ABB, Philips, Crane, Eurotray, Tata,
Hilti, and Magna Tyres. They will showcase hundreds of products for the booming
Nigerian infrastructure and building sectors, offering high quality and cost
effective solutions, without forgetting the growing importance of
sustainability.
Eyeing the growing business opportunities in
Africa’s most populous country, leading international brands are on the lookout
for Nigerian partners at the much awaited Big 5 Construct Nigeria.
From Italy, Gianmarco Micheloni, Export Area
Manager at IVR Spa, says: “At the event, we will be looking for a nationwide
wholesaler able to promote and sell our products all over Nigeria.
Domo® Sports Grass, a worldwide expert in quality
solutions for sports grounds from Belgium, will be presenting its artificial
grass for sports applications, including soccer, rugby, tennis, and hockey.
The company’s Sales Manager for Africa, Yessine Ben
Hamida, says: “Natural grass needs a lot of maintenance and water. Synthetic
grass is therefore an optimal substitute for it.”
Companies from the United Arab Emirates will also
take part in the exhibition. “Face to face meetings with clients are always
better even in the era of new technology and online interactions,” says Tatyana
Kim, Export Executive at the Dubai-based Aquagas Plastic Industries LLC.
Construction professionals will also be able to
source sustainable products at the event. Rishit Dalal, Director of Projects
& International Business, at Jaycee, a market leader from India, announces:
“We will be showcasing our flagship product ‘CEMGUARD Fly Ash’ at The Big 5
Construct Nigeria.
