The Bank of Industry (BOI) has announced the disbursement of N22.89 billion to 29 manufacturers as part of the Federal Government’s N75 billion Manufacturing Sector Intervention Fund.

Olasupo Olusi, the managing director of BOI, made this announcement during an interactive session with the Organised Private Sector in Abuja.

He also revealed that an additional 20 projects, totaling N6.3 billion, are currently at various stages of disbursement under the same initiative.

Olusi emphasized that the fund represents a significant milestone in promoting collaboration and advancing the industrial sector in the country.

“This agreement underscores a simple truth that we cannot transform Nigeria’s industrial landscape alone. The journey to sustainable economic growth must be fueled by collaboration, innovation, and a shared resolve to address systemic challenges,” he stated.

Olusi highlighted that the fund is part of a larger effort to drive the development of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) through strategic partnerships.

He said the bank has been working closely with private sector organisations to streamline processes and ensure the effective delivery of its loan programms.

In October 2024, BOI launched its application portal for the N75 billion Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Intervention Fund, aimed at empowering Nigeria’s small business sector. The initiative offers loans of up to N1 million to MSMEs at a competitive 9% interest rate for a three-year term, with no collateral requirements.

Amina Habu Mohammed, a BOI representative, described the fund as a critical support mechanism to address the credit challenges faced by small businesses in Nigeria.

Solomon Vongfa, national president of the Nigerian Association of Small Scale Industrialists (NASSI), commended the initiative as a ‘beacon of hope’ for MSMEs, emphasising its potential to spur economic growth, create jobs, and foster innovation.

To ensure the fund’s success, he said NASSI has committed to educating business owners on how to access the loans through workshops, seminars, and outreach programs in all 36 states.
