In an inspiring move to support local industry and talent, Actively Black has hired a factory in Lagos to produce the outfits for Nigeria’s opening and closing ceremonies.

This decision shows the brand’s commitment to authenticity as the collaboration with local artisans ensures that each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, and reflects the rich style that the Nigerian culture embodies.
