dmg events has announced the launch of the West Africa Warehousing and Logistics Expo, scheduled to hold from April 6 to 8, 2027, at the Landmark Centre in Lagos.
The inaugural exhibition is aimed at supporting the growing demand for warehousing, distribution and supply chain solutions across West Africa, amid increasing investment driven by e-commerce, manufacturing, urbanisation and regional trade.
According to dmg events, the region’s freight and logistics market, valued at 27.58 billion dollars in 2025, is projected to reach 37.17 billion dollars by 2030.
President of dmg events, Matt Denton, said Nigeria was a natural location for the expo, given the rapid expansion of e-commerce, industrial development and increasingly sophisticated supply chains.
He said the company would leverage its experience in delivering warehousing and logistics events globally to create opportunities for collaboration, knowledge exchange and business growth across Africa.
The expo will bring together suppliers, buyers and industry professionals to explore solutions in warehouse automation, storage systems, inventory management, identification and labelling, loading and distribution.
The event will be held alongside HVACR Nigeria, highlighting the growing relationship between logistics, warehousing and climate-controlled infrastructure, particularly for cold storage facilities and distribution centres.
dmg events, which has operated in Africa since 2015, currently delivers major business exhibitions across countries including Nigeria, Egypt and South Africa.
The organisers said entry to the West Africa Warehousing and Logistics Expo would be free for trade professionals aged 21 and above.
