Nigerian Manufacturers Embrace AI for Enhanced Productivity

Nigerian manufacturers are increasingly embracing AI to enhance productivity, with leading companies such as Dangote Cement PLC (NGX: DANGCEM) and Nigerian Breweries PLC (NGX: NB) utilizing digital tools for talent management and operational improvements. A report indicates that while interest in AI is growing, only a small percentage of manufacturing firms have fully implemented AI.

The focus is on upskilling workers rather than replacing jobs, with AI being used for performance management, workforce analytics, and product enhancement across various industries in Nigeria.
