The name Lobogo is a place-name meaning "Under the orange tree" ("lobwe" = orange tree; "go" = under) in the local Sahue language. This is in reference to a woman who had set up a vendor stand under an orange tree. The market has grown to become one of the largest in the surrounding area. The market is known for its assortment of vodun-related ritual items and an impressive selection of goods brought from as far as Cotonou for sale. Market days occur once every five days with a significantly smaller selection of items available on non-market days. Non-textiles are often available only on a seasonal basis.
