Frequently asked questions
How much is a 50kg bag of sugar?
The latest 2026 figure we found was about ₦85,000–₦95,000 for Dangote sugar (May 2026). Online retailers list similar prices. Confirm with a distributor, because no newer survey was available.
Is BUA sugar cheaper than Dangote?
One Lagos online store listed BUA a little below Dangote and Golden Penny, but the listing is undated, so we cannot confirm current 2026 prices for BUA.
Why does sugar cost more in some places?
Prices rise with distance from refineries and depots and with retailer delivery charges. Upcountry wholesale is usually at the lower end of the range and Lagos retail at the higher end.
