MTM to Showcase Malaysian Halal Products, Unveil Digital Marketplace

Malaysia Traders Market Nigeria Limited (MTM), a bilateral business development organization bridging trade and investment between Malaysia and Nigeria, is preparing to display Malaysian halal products and unveil a digital marketplace at the 2026 Lagos International Trade Fair. The organization will host a four-day exhibition, titled "Malaysia, Your Halal Gateway," at Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos.

This event is a collaboration with the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) as part of the 40th Lagos International Trade Fair, set for November.

The primary goal of the exhibition is to promote mutual value exchange between Malaysian products and the Nigerian market while strengthening commercial ties between the two countries. MTM's Founder and CEO, Olawale Suleimon Ayinla, emphasized that this initiative aims to translate the existing economic relationship between Nigeria and Malaysia into more substantial business opportunities.

He stated that while both nations have enjoyed valuable trade ties over the years, there is significant potential to deepen these connections, particularly among businesses, manufacturers, distributors, and consumers.

Ayinla highlighted that Malaysia boasts strengths across various industries, including the halal sector, while Nigeria possesses a vast consumer market, a dynamic entrepreneurial spirit, and ample trade and investment prospects. He noted that by structuring these advantages into mutually beneficial connections, Malaysia Traders Market is striving to create a platform that brings together the best of both nations.
