Dangote Industries has announced plans to acquire its own shipping vessels to overcome logistical challenges hindering its regional expansion. Sada Ladan-Baki, Head of International Trade and Export at Dangote Cement, cited difficulties in securing adequate shipping capacity and rising road transport costs as key reasons. She disclosed that the company once struggled to transport a 1,000-metric-tonne consignment to Ghana due to vessel unavailability. The move aims to facilitate the movement of products from Nigeria to markets across West and Central Africa.
