The Chairman of Abejoye Trading Company Limited, Senator Oladipo Odujinrin has inaugurated the AT Business & Industrial Park in Ode-Remo, Ogun State, positioning it as a strategic hub for investment, logistics and industrial growth.

Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, Odujinrin described the project as a catalyst for economic transformation, stating that the facility represents “a new economic chapter” for Remo, Ogun State and Nigeria at large.

He said the park aligns with the country’s industrialisation drive and export-led growth ambitions, noting that it offers a private sector-led, infrastructure-backed investment platform at a critical time for the economy.

According to him, the project has already moved beyond the planning stage, with core infrastructure and tenant activity in place.

He disclosed that the park sits on 10 acres of land, out of which four acres have been fully developed and are operational, featuring internal road networks connected to the highway, stable power supply, administrative facilities, and three completed warehouses currently occupied by foreign-owned companies.

“This is not a proposal. This is a functioning economic zone with proven demand,” Odujinrin said.

He added that the park’s location provides strategic advantages, being situated minutes from the newly commissioned Gateway International Airport in Iperu/Ilishan Remo, within an hour’s drive from Lagos, and in proximity to the proposed Olokola Deep Sea Port.

He said the combination of air connectivity, seaport access and proximity to major markets offers investors a “rare convergence” of logistics and distribution advantages.

Odujinrin also announced plans for Phase Two of the development, which will cover the remaining six acres of land and be opened for co-investment and development partnerships.

He said the expansion phase will include a shopping mall, a four-star business hotel, and mixed-use developments comprising residential, hospitality and SME clusters.

Also speaking at the event, the Ogun State Commissioner for Industry, Trade and Investment, Hon. Adebola Sofela, who represented Governor Dapo Abiodun, said the project reflects the state government’s commitment to deepening industrialisation and expanding economic opportunities.

Sofela commended the vision of the developer, noting that the park demonstrates foresight and aligns with Ogun State’s goal of strengthening its position as a leading destination for investment and innovation.

 

“This location presents a significant step in our collective effort to deepen industrialisation, expand economic opportunities, and improve the quality of life for our people,” he said.

 

He added that the industrial park would stimulate job creation, support small and medium enterprises, and attract both local and foreign investors.

 

“Beyond economic value, it will also serve as a catalyst for community development, opening opportunities for skill acquisition, increased commerce, and improved livelihoods for residents,” Sofela said.

 

He further noted that the planned shopping mall within the park would enhance access to goods and services, promote local enterprise, and create a vibrant commercial hub within the axis.

 

The commissioner assured investors and stakeholders of the state government’s continued support through infrastructure development, policy implementation, and public-private partnerships aimed at boosting enterprise productivity.

 

“We will continue to provide the necessary support to ensure that investments such as this deliver maximum value for our people and future generations,” he said.

 

The commissioner thereafter officially commissioned the industrial park and flagged off the development of the shopping mall.

 

Dignitaries at the event included the Akarigbo and Paramount Ruler of Remoland, HRM Oba Babatunde Adewale Ajayi, alongside community leaders, investors and other stakeholders.
