Five Reasons Why You Should Attend The 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair. by Redman44(m): 4:22pm On Oct 24, 2019
The 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair will take place from the 1st to the 10th of November 2019 @ the Tafawa Balewa Square ( TBS ), Lagos, Nigeria. The fair is organized by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry ( LCCI ). LCCI has been organizing the fair since 1986. The Lagos International Trade Fair has become a major event in Nigeria and it attracts a lot of foreign exhibitors from different countries in Asia, America and Europe. The 2019 Edition is promising to be a very exciting event as spaces at venue of the fair, Tafawa Balewa Square ( TBS ), Lagos, sold out quickly. Here are five reasons you should attend the fair.

1. Discovering New Products: Manufacturers and Companies all over the world always use trade fairs to showcase their new products. When you attend a trade fair, you are mostly likely to come across products you have not seen in Shops and Supermarkets in your neighborhood. You might have been looking for a specific product online or in shops around where you live, without any success. However, when you attend a trade fair, you will come across different brands of the product you are looking. You should also note that it is not every product that Manufacturers place in their Catalogs, especially in Nigeria. Many Manufacturers in Nigeria do not have brochures and catalogs for their products. By attending the Lagos International Trade Fair, you are opening yourself to a sea of products.

2. Getting Discount Prices For Products: It is true that the prices of goods and products are cheaper and more affordable at trade fairs. Companies and Manufacturers always use trade fairs to offer discount prices to the public in a bid to win new customers and build a following for their products. You could get to pay 2000 Naira for a product at the LITF though the same product costs 3500 Naira in Shops and Supermarkets all over Nigeria. People throng Trade Fairs to get discount prices for goods and products. After the trade fairs end, the goods and products will revert to their normal prices. You have 10 days at the 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair to get good prices for products you want. Trade Fairs are bargain and discount stores in disguise during their duration every year. Be wise and take advantage of the cheap prices at trade fairs.

3. Networking With Exhibitors and Companies: Many foreign companies will be exhibiting their products at the 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair. You can attend the trade fair to discuss with representatives of these companies with the view of becoming their distribution agent in Nigeria. Many Asian Companies are looking for Nigerians who will partner with them and be their eyes and ears in the Nigerian Consumer Market, when they depart Nigeria after the 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair. If you are a businessman, you can make a lot of money by becoming a partner or affiliate with Companies who participate at trade fairs. You can also work with local Companies and secure good deals for yourself. There are no limits to what you can achieve by networking with Companies at the Lagos International Trade Fair. By networking with these foreign companies, you can actually build a business for yourself.

4. Working At The Trade Fair: Yes, the fair will only last for 10 days. However, you can get a job with exhibitors at the 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair by being physically present at the event. Walk up to the stands and canopies and ask the exhibitors if they are looking for staff for the day. Be smartly dressed in clean clothes. Make sure you look presentable. Be clean shaven ( No weird hairstyles, please ) and humble. Many of the exhibitors will surely need extra hands to help them move stuff around or man the stand for them. You can decide to work for different Companies and Exhibitors at the trade fair everyday. They will give you tee shirts and face caps you will put on everyday. You can make decent money during the 10 days of the fair. Be proactive. Walk up to the exhibitors from day 1 and make yourself available to them as a Salesperson or Marketer. Cheers.

5. Securing Permanent Jobs With Companies and Exhibitors: The 2019 Lagos International Trade Fair will hold for only 10 days. Business will continue forever. The Companies and Exhibitors at the trade fair have Factories and offices that operate 5-7 days a week. By working with Companies and Exhibitors at the trade fair, you are opening yourself to the possibility of becoming a permanent staff with them. If you are able to help them make more sales and money at the trade fair, there is a high chance that they would give you a contract and employ you on a full time basis. Don't underestimate the power of these Companies. If you are valuable to them, they will retain you and give you a full time Career with lots of opportunities for growth and advancement. Try and attend the Trade Fair.
