The commissioner disclosed that the state government was now scaling up the initiative through the construction of additional mid-level agro-produce hubs across Lagos.
She also said the newly completed Mid-Level Agroproduce Hub at Abijo was commissioned virtually by President Bola Tinubu in April 2026, while another hub in Agege is expected to be launched within the next few months.
Olusanya stated that construction works are ongoing in Opebi, Ikorodu, and Bombata, while additional sites have been identified in Apapa, Festac, and the Lekki axis.
According to her, the long-term goal of the government is to establish a structured food distribution infrastructure across all Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas in the state.
She explained that the hubs are designed to reduce post-harvest losses, improve food distribution efficiency, and provide farmers and traders with more organised market systems.
The commissioner noted that the initiative forms part of the broader strategy of the Sanwo-Olu administration to modernise Lagos’ food economy through investments in logistics, storage, processing, and market infrastructure.
She added that the government remains focused on building a resilient food system capable of supporting a stable food supply, reducing waste, and improving access to affordable food for residents.
