Organised every year as part of the bank’s
corporate social responsibility, the fair is designed
to celebrate Nigeria’s vibrant food culture and

this reporter was stunned by the heavy crowd

the experience centre as people jostled to
find their way in and out. However, having
already anticipated this kind of multitude,
the bank’s logistics team put up measures

as one entered the experience centre was the
floor map which helped everyone locate the
different areas with ease.
Carefully curated section of small food
businesses offered best culinary experiences in

nomic delight from restaurants and outdoor grills
well-known for setting taste buds on fire with
exciting mix of eclectic cocktails and pastries.
Happening alongside eating and drinking were
five masterclasses of 60 minutes each delivered
