Strategic Investments, Country Perspectives and the Dangote Refinery Effect

September 2026

Report Summary

You have definietely heard about the Dangoted Refinery IPO, but do you know what you need to know before you dip your feet into the waters?

This time around, we decided to have a roundtable with our friends and partners at Imaginarium, a foremost marketing and communications agency based in Nigeria. We came up with several hypothesis around key industries that both entities often interface with and were heavily affected by the socio-political landscape in Nigeria. These industries includes: Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Banking and Finance, Technology, Investments & Consumer habits & Economic influence. The consumer insights gathered is focused mainly in Nigeria where we have collected data around relevant topics from each sector.

In our eleventh Versus report series, in collaboration with our friends at Imaginarium - we delve into a hypothesis driven intelligence report where we conclude with direct and honest feedback from our Versus scouts' respondents across Nigeria. We also highlight where we see opportunities as well as make some bold predictions on where we see things panning out for these key sectors.
