Ecobank Nigeria, in partnership with Qatar Airways, has recognised and rewarded outstanding exhibitors at the recently concluded ‘Oja Oge by Ecobank’ fair.

The vibrant three-day fashion, beauty, and lifestyle event held in Lagos showcased the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of local businesses, providing a platform for visibility, sales growth, and market expansion.

The highlight of the event was the presentation of awards to top-performing vendors:

  • Goodness and Mercy Hair won the top prize—a Qatar Airways Business Class ticket to any destination of choice—for achieving the highest gross sales in value.
  • Clandini received an Economy Class ticket to any global destination as the second-highest seller by gross sales.
  • Accessories by Morgan earned ₦750,000 for generating the highest volume of transactions during the fair.

Speaking at the award presentation, Omoboye Odu, Head of SME Banking at Ecobank Nigeria, commended the exhibitors for their innovation and product quality. She also expressed gratitude to Qatar Airways and other partners for supporting the second edition of the bank’s flagship fashion pop-up event.

“This fair exemplifies our ongoing commitment to empowering local entrepreneurs,” Odu said. “It provided vendors with a unique opportunity to showcase their offerings, attract new customers, forge valuable business connections, and explore broader markets.”

Odu further highlighted the fair’s role in fostering engagement between emerging brands and local as well as international consumers.

Award recipients expressed heartfelt appreciation to Ecobank and Qatar Airways for the recognition and encouragement. A representative from Accessories by Morgan noted the critical impact of such initiatives in scaling SME operations and boosting visibility.

Ecobank Nigeria Limited is a subsidiary of the Ecobank Group, the leading pan-African banking group with presence in 33 African countries and international offices in London, Paris, Beijing, and Dubai.
