“The first export pilot will focus on Adire, one of Nigeria's most recognised indigenous textiles.”
Starting with Adire
The Creative Economy Export Programme is where MakeItNaija's export work begins. Its first export pilot will focus on Adire, one of Nigeria's most recognised indigenous textiles.
Choosing a single, widely recognised textile gives the pilot a clear focus: one craft tradition, presented with the care and context it deserves.
From programme to marketplace
Because the first pilot focuses on Adire, Adire is the first featured export pathway within MakeItNaija. On the marketplace, that pathway takes shape as the Adire collection, where you can explore how the textile moves into fashion, accessories and the home.
Every piece in the collection is hand-dyed by studios in Abeokuta and Lagos, and each listing introduces the maker behind it.
