Tanzania is intensifying efforts to deepen commercial ties with Nigeria as both countries seek to unlock new opportunities in trade, investment and private-sector collaboration.
The move will be highlighted at the Food & Beverage West Africa 2026 exhibition in Lagos from June 9 to 11, where Tanzania will showcase its products and business opportunities to a broad audience of buyers, distributors, importers, retailers, investors and hospitality industry stakeholders.
Visitors to the Tanzania Pavilion at Booth 3E06, Hall 3, will find a range of export products, including premium tea and coffee, cashew nuts, fine wines, spices, spreads and dips, alongside other value-added food and beverage offerings. The products are known for their quality, distinctive flavours and growing appeal in international markets, reflecting the country's focus on agricultural excellence and value-chain development.
According to the Tanzania High Commission in Abuja, a delegation of private-sector companies and industry representatives will participate throughout the exhibition, holding Business-to-Business meetings and exploring partnerships with Nigerian and international businesses.
The mission said the initiative forms part of a wider strategy to strengthen economic diplomacy and expand trade relations with Nigeria. It noted that increased engagement through international trade platforms is designed to improve market access for Tanzanian products while fostering mutually beneficial commercial partnerships across Africa.
The High Commission added that Tanzania’s expanding export base presents opportunities for Nigerian businesses seeking high-quality agricultural and value-added products. It also identified agriculture, manufacturing and services as key sectors with strong potential for deeper cooperation and investment.
The mission further emphasised that stronger Tanzania-Nigeria trade relations support the objectives of the African Continental Free Trade Area, which aims to boost intra-African commerce and economic integration. It noted that closer collaboration between both countries can strengthen supply chains, enhance business connections and contribute to sustainable economic growth.
Stakeholders in both nations have been encouraged to take advantage of trade exhibitions and business forums as platforms for building partnerships and exploring new commercial opportunities across the continent.
