Southwest Nigeria shows potential to become a leading supplier of horticultural produce, driven by its proximity to major markets like Lagos, and an increase in population and urbanization. While the sector is largely informal and underinvested, it holds promise for year-round production and market growth. This study outlines the sector’s current situation and presents a vision for 2045 with milestones for 2030 for sector stakeholders, including foreign (and Dutch) businesses. Foresight and participatory scenario development workshops were conducted to explore the possible futures of the horticulture sector in each of the six states in the Southwest. The study recommends seven key strategies; fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration and dialogue, increasing government support, improving access to finance, upgrading supply chain infrastructure, providing farmer training, transferable business and management skills for youth, and promoting awareness among consumers on healthy diets. Coordinated action across these areas are needed to steer the sector towards the preferred scenario.
