MIAPPA in Action: Building a Global Market for Aba Products

From Vision to Reality – How MIAPPA is Championing Nigerian Made Goods

The Made-In-Aba Products Promotion Agency (MIAPPA) isn’t just another initiative; it’s a movement for economic revival and industrial empowerment. With over 20 well-structured programmes and an array of national and global strategies, MIAPPA is actively building a platform where Aba-made products can thrive—locally and internationally.

From organizing massive Enyimba Trade Fairs in Aba, launching Summer Sales in Abuja, and building Made-in-Aba Shopping Plazas across major cities in Nigeria and overseas, MIAPPA is setting the foundation for a new era in Nigerian trade.

Among its most innovative efforts are:

But MIAPPA isn’t only about marketing. It also advocates for better trade policies, connects SMEs with investors, sources modern production technologies, and provides capacity-building programmes for entrepreneurs. These steps are designed to make local producers competitive and globally relevant.

Through its Awards Programmes, MIAPPA also celebrates excellence—from top exporters and patriotic corporate buyers, to creative artists and supportive media outlets. These recognitions serve to inspire confidence in local production and reward stakeholders making significant impacts.

At its core, MIAPPA believes that Nigeria’s true wealth lies in its people’s ability to create, innovate, and produce. By mobilizing youth, connecting with the diaspora, and fostering partnerships with foreign institutions, MIAPPA is helping transform Aba into a global trade hub.

This is not just about products—it’s about national identity, economic sustainability, and a shared vision for Nigeria’s prosperity.
