​Organised by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), the 40th edition of West Africa’s premier commercial hub is taking place from November 6 to November 15, 2026, at the iconic Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Onikan, Lagos. The fair opens daily to exhibitors, international delegates, and millions of visitors.
​As the official insurance partner, Leadway Assurance provides comprehensive risk protection and coverage across the 10-day trade exhibition. The coverage spans public liability, asset protection, emergency risk mitigation, and tailored micro-insurance packages designed to support thousands of participating small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
​Speaking on the extended partnership, Mrs. Kikelomo Fischer, Executive Director of Retail and Partnerships at Leadway Assurance, emphasized the company’s dedication to safeguarding business growth:
​”Our continued role as the official insurer of the Lagos International Trade Fair reinforces our commitment to driving economic growth and empowering local businesses. Small and medium-scale enterprises form the backbone of Nigeria’s economy, and our goal is to provide them with the financial safety nets necessary to innovate, scale, and trade with absolute peace of mind.”
​Mrs. Fischer noted that the collaboration builds upon the success of joint enterprise initiatives, including the recently concluded Leadway Lifestyle Fair, which successfully brought together over 100 SMEs and attracted more than 10,000 visitors to drive customer acquisition and sales expansion.
​Representing the organizers, Gabriel Idahosa, President of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), welcomed Leadway’s return, highlighting that robust risk coverage creates a secure environment for cross-border investments, bulk commerce, and financial interactions.
​Throughout the event, Leadway Assurance operates dedicated advisory hubs across the Tafawa Balewa Square grounds, providing real-time claims resolution, on-site consultation, and customised enterprise risk management solutions for domestic and international exhibitors.
