Federal Government Launches Nigeria Fashion Federation to Boost Local Industry and Global Recognition
The new national platform will unite state governments and industry stakeholders to drive growth, innovation, and international visibility for Nigerian fashion.
The Federal Government has officially announced the creation of the Nigeria Fashion Federation (NFF) — a national coordinating platform designed to strengthen collaboration between state governments, fashion entrepreneurs, and industry stakeholders in promoting the country’s vibrant fashion sector.
According to the announcement made today, the NFF will serve as a strategic hub for innovation, policy development, and international partnerships, positioning Nigeria as a leading force in the global fashion industry.
Government officials described the initiative as a bold step toward harnessing Nigeria’s creative potential, creating new jobs, and supporting fashion designers, textile producers, and small businesses across the country.
The federation will also work closely with state ministries of culture, trade, and investment to ensure that the fashion industry contributes meaningfully to Nigeria’s non-oil revenue base and creative economy.
Industry experts have hailed the move as a game-changer, noting that with proper coordination and government backing, Nigerian fashion could become a major export driver, celebrated for its diversity, craftsmanship, and cultural depth.
