Maternal Newborn Child Health and Nutrition (MNCH-N) Market Assessment: Nigeria

The MNCH-N Market Assessment for Nigeria offers a detailed analysis of the barriers and opportunities shaping access to essential maternal, newborn, and child health and nutrition (MNCH-N) products. Led by Results for Development (R4D), with data collection support from Market Access Africa, and supported by the Gates Foundation, this assessment provides a comprehensive look at how Nigeria’s MNCH-N product markets function across both public and private sectors.

Drawing on data from 10 states and national-level systems, the report identifies critical gaps in product availability and highlights how fragmented procurement and financing systems hinder equitable access. It also explores the supply-side market factors in Nigeria – including quality, price, and the role of local manufacturers.

The findings are designed to inform strategic investments and policy interventions that can accelerate progress toward Universal Health Coverage and reduce preventable maternal and child mortality. Whether you are a policymaker, donor, implementer, or advocate, this report offers actionable insights to help shape a healthier future for Nigeria’s women and children.
