“The same way Heineken has broken borders from its birthplace in Amsterdam, Netherlands to 192 countries around the world, is how we see the African fashion industry and its players breaking boundaries to make huge impact around the world.

“The Lagos Fashion and Design Week is indeed a highly significant platform for Heineken to support African fashion designers to perform their craftsmanship and make their mark in the fashion industry.”
