The Wear Africa Expo and Exhibition in Abuja is an annual event focused on showcasing Africa’s fashion, textile, and apparel industries. It brings together designers, manufacturers, retailers, and fashion enthusiasts to promote African fashion, culture, and creativity. The expo features various fashion shows, exhibitions, and networking opportunities, with an emphasis on supporting local talent and fostering business connections within the African fashion ecosystem. It serves as a platform for brands to exhibit their products, engage with consumers, and explore new market opportunities, while also highlighting sustainable and ethical fashion practices.

2. Africa Food Show 2025 – The Ultimate F&B Connection Hub

Africa’s food and beverage market is undergoing a major transformation, expected to exceed $1 trillion by 2030, according to the African Development Bank. This growth is driven by a rising population, growing economies, and a more affluent middle class. Consumers are now seeking more diverse and premium-quality options, moving beyond traditional staples to explore upscale products.

Africa Food Show 2025 is set to become the top platform for connecting decision-makers, innovators, procurement managers, and startups. It offers F&B brands the perfect space to showcase new products, build partnerships, and grow their business.

Organized by dmg & KAOUN International, the event is a rebranded evolution of Africa’s Big 7 and now part of the globally renowned Gulfood series. Building on the success of Dubai’s Gulfood and the fast-growing Saudi Food Show, Africa Food Show 2025 brings the continent its most impactful F&B sourcing exhibition yet.

“The food industry is always evolving. The Africa Food Show brings the entire supply chain together, from ingredients to consumer products. We look forward to seeing Africa’s food sector thrive through knowledge-sharing and new partnerships,” says Nicole Lau, Product Management Director, Crown Food Group.

ISSUE 034

As we arrive at the final pages of 2025, this
Christmas edition feels both tender and collective. It
is a pause between what has been and what is
quietly becoming. A season of warmth, reflection,
and honest stock taking, wrapped in the familiar
comfort of family, memory, and hope.
This issue is about finishing well. Not with noise or
perfection, but with intention. Across these pages,
we explore purpose, resilience, womanhood,
healing, and the quiet power of choosing peace in a
world that constantly demands performance.
Being the cover star of this final issue is not about
visibility, but responsibility. It is about holding space
for reflection and renewal, and reminding ourselves
that growth often arrives softly. In wisdom earned,
boundaries honoured, and rest finally embraced.
As the year closes, I hope this edition meets you
gently. Whether you are celebrating milestones,
sitting with loss, or rebuilding in silence, remember
this, finishing strong is not about how the year
looked, but how you choose to step forward.
Here is to light, intention, and the courage to begin
again. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a
great New Year
