In Pursuit of Self-Reliance
Dangote Industries Limited is striving for self-reliance in Nigeria in all the sectors where it operates and has drawn up ambitious plans to set up world-class projects in new realms such as Agriculture, Petroleum Refinery & Petrochemicals, fertilizer, and Telecom. The Group has almost single-handedly taken Nigeria to self-sufficiency in cement and is expanding rapidly across Africa, helping other countries achieve the same.
Building Africa, One Milestone at a Time
The Dangote story began in 1981 as a small trading venture. Over the decades, we have transformed into Africa’s largest and most diversified business group, with operations spanning cement, sugar, salt, flour, energy, and infrastructure. Each milestone in our journey reflects a deep commitment to industrial growth, self-reliance, and improving the quality of life for millions of Africans.
Today, the Dangote Group stands as a symbol of resilience and innovation—building industries that power nations, create jobs, and inspire the next generation of African enterprises.
