Apapa, Nigeria: a key seaport hub in West Africa
Apapa, the central port city of Lagos State, Nigeria, located along the Gulf of Guinea, is one of the country's largest and busiest seaports and a key trade transit point for the West African region. As the lifeblood of Nigeria's economy, Apapa Port is responsible for more than 70% of the country's imports and exports, including oil, minerals, agricultural products and manufactured goods, connecting the landlocked country to international markets. The port is surrounded by comprehensive warehousing and logistics facilities, making it an important gateway for foreign companies to enter the West African market. Despite the challenges of aging infrastructure and traffic congestion, Apapa's strategic location continues to drive Nigeria's foreign trade and economic development, making it a key player in the regional economic landscape.
