Branding plays a pivotal role in the success of fashion businesses, serving as a means of differentiation, customer engagement, and value creation. In Nigeria, the fashion industry has witnessed rapid growth, with Lagos emerging as a vibrant hub for designers and entrepreneurs. Lagos fashion designers are recognized for their creativity and innovation, but the financial sustainability of their businesses often hinges on effective branding strategies (Ajayi & Uchenna, 2024).
A strong brand identity enhances customer loyalty, allows for premium pricing, and drives sales. However, many fashion businesses in Nigeria struggle to invest in branding due to limited resources, lack of expertise, and a focus on short-term gains. This study investigates the financial impact of branding on Lagos fashion designers, examining how investments in brand development influence business performance.
Statement of the Problem
Despite the growing recognition of branding as a critical success factor in the fashion industry, many Nigerian fashion businesses face challenges in leveraging branding for financial growth. For Lagos fashion designers, the high cost of brand development, coupled with a lack of measurable returns, has created skepticism about its value (Obinna, 2025).
Existing research on branding in Nigeria has predominantly focused on consumer goods, with limited emphasis on its application in the fashion sector. This study aims to bridge this gap by evaluating the financial implications of branding for Lagos fashion designers, providing insights into its role in business sustainability.
