Coleman Wires and Cables continues to contribute actively to conversations shaping the future of Africa’s industrial and manufacturing landscape.
At the West Africa Industrialisation, Manufacturing and Trade (IMT) Summit & Exhibition 2026, our MD/CEO, Engr. George Onafowokan, FNSE, served as a distinguished panelist, joining industry leaders and policymakers in a high-level discussion focused on “Igniting Intra-African Trade & Transforming Economies.”
During the session, Engr. Onafowokan shared valuable insights on the role of local manufacturing, infrastructure development, and strategic industrial investment in strengthening trade across the African continent. He emphasized the importance of building resilient manufacturing ecosystems capable of supporting Africa’s economic transformation and reducing dependence on imports.
The discussion also explored how collaboration among governments, financial institutions, and private sector players can unlock new trade corridors, accelerate industrial growth, and create sustainable economic opportunities across West Africa.
As a leading manufacturer in the region, Coleman Wires and Cables remains committed to driving industrial progress through innovation, quality production, and long-term investment in Nigeria’s manufacturing sector.
By participating in platforms such as the West Africa IMT Summit, Coleman continues to contribute thought leadership and practical solutions that support the growth of intra-African trade and the broader transformation of the continent’s economies.
