According to the NEPC, to access new
markets, non-oil exporters must be willing to operate in line with global best
standards and also leverage opportunities at trade fairs to present their
competitive edge to potential customers and businesses.
Hmmm!!! Folks, let
us say the truth and shame the devil. Many Nigerian non-oil products exporters
have been defrauded of huge amount of money in the process of exporting agricultural
commodities and solid minerals to foreign countries. Do you know why? They were
not trained on export operations, management, documentations and the best
methods of payment in export trade. This is terrible!!! Nigerians cannot
continue to lose money to foreigners in the course of export business. Exporters,
would you like to keep on being scammed? Why don’t you get a practical manual
that explains the stages of export trade from processing and packaging of
commodities to receipt of payment by the foreign buyers? It explains export
operations, export management, export documentations and methods of payment in
export trade? Yes, it is a contemporary step-by-step guide to export trade. It
tells all the contemporary dynamics in export trade. To get it, click on the

Speaking on, ‘Effective tools for
accessing international market’, at a capacity building programme for non-oil
exporters in Lagos, the Chief Executive Officer of NEPC, Olusegun Awolowo, who was represented by Assistant Director and
Head, Trade Information, Mrs. Francisca
Odega, urged non-oil exporters to leverage trade fairs to gain access to the
international markets. He expressed concern about the low level of
participation of Nigerian players in the global market space, adding that the
Council was poised to change the narrative.
With an emphasis on effective
participation at trade fairs, the NEPC explained that fairs are adjudged as one
of the most effective means of gaining access to the international market. “Well-organised fairs will attract many buyers and exhibitors
and therefore represent a concentrated market in which you can gather
information, learn about the target market and its trends. It also provides a
platform to get customer feedback on your export products, identify buyers and
representatives, learn about the competitors and their products and generate
orders,” he added.
National
President, Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, lndustry, Mines and
Agriculture (NACCIMA), Iyalode Alaba
Lawson, urged the exporters to take advantage of the capacity building
exercise to get familiar with new trends and requirements needed to access new
markets. http://www.tectono-business.com/2016/02/contemporary-step-by-step-guide-to.html
