INVESTMENT SECTORS
We are a top choice destination for business across a unique range of sectors
Agriculture
Data on actual production and potential volumes is limited. There is also limited detailed information available on soil types, climate and land availability in the State. Initial prioritisation has therefore focused on satisfying the needs of investors with confirmed interest or existing activities with growth potential.
Mineral Resources
The potential in the solid minerals sector has been discussed extensively with stakeholders and experts within and outside Bauchi state. In 2013 the Mineral Resources Development Agency confirmed that it will be difficult to attract investments to the sector until initial exploration activities are undertaken that will enable reasonably accurate estimates of reserves to be documented.
Tourism & Hospitality
While the previously conceived security situation in North Eastern Nigeria may detract many foreign tourists, a new International Airport and improved road infrastructure is easing access to Bauchi for both domestic and international tourists.
