Dangote promises free fuel delivery to select buyers within Nigeria for the second time in the last two months

The current price of gasoline for eligible buyers has been set at ₦1,165 per liter and has a 10-day credit term.

The project, which is being implemented as part of the company’s Vision 2030 program, is presently available in ten Nigerian states as part of its initial phase.

The initial deployment includes Lagos, Ogun, Rivers, Kaduna, Abuja, Delta, Kano, Imo, Anambra, and Nasarawa, as seen on the Dangote Group X page.

Customers who satisfy the programme’s minimum purchase requirement of 250,000 liters will have their petrol supplied at no additional cost.

The refinery is also providing buyers with 10 days of credit, allowing qualifying consumers more time to settle their purchases.

The ₦1,165 per liter pricing aligns with Dangote’s goal of increasing access to domestically refined fuel in Nigeria.

The initiative is part of the refinery’s larger aim to improve domestic petroleum supply and distribution while lowering some of the logistical challenges involved with transporting refined products throughout Nigeria.

It also piggybacks off an identical program the refinery initiated a month earlier, where the refinery offered an even lower price.

Early in July, the Dangote Group offered Nigeria’s downstream petroleum industry a free petrol delivery program, providing bulk purchasers direct access to gasoline for ₦1,075 per litre in chosen states, slightly lower than the current offer.

At the time, the promotional materials seen on the group’s X page, issued as part of the company’s Dangote Vision 2030: Accelerating Africa’s Industrialisation campaign, marked the first phase of the scheme, which spanned Lagos, Ogun, Rivers, Kaduna, Abuja, and Delta.

Similarly, it targeted high-volume consumers with a minimum purchase requirement of 250,000 liters, while also running for 10 days.

The refinery described the programme as “eco-friendly, implying that the distribution network might make use of its increasing fleet of compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered vehicles, which the business has been deploying as part of a larger push to decrease transportation costs and emissions.
