In order to ensure compliance
with international standards and encourage export of value-added
agro-industrial products to the western markets, the Nigeria Export Promotion Council (NEPC) has facilitated
international training and certification for 12 Nigerian agro-allied companies.
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

According to the council, this training
would improve global participation of Nigerian food processors and
entrepreneurs, which, in turn, would deepen production, employment opportunities
and gross domestic product (GDP). The selected participants were trained on Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point
(HACCP), one of the certifications required in exporting products to the
United Kingdom (UK). For food industry export to the western world, standards,
such as Food Safety Management System (ISO 22000); Hazard Analysis and Critical
Control Point (HACCP), British Retail Consortium (BRC), Food Safety System
Certification (FSSC 22000), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Good Agricultural
Practices (GAP), are required.
Participants at the training
included Answer Industries Limited, Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State; Tuns and Partners
Farm, Abeokuta; Blessed Barn Nigeria Ltd, Abeokuta; Natureffects Limited,
Ilese-Ijebu Ogun State; Amy Farm House Limited, Port Harcourt; Eden Moringa
Production & Marketers Limited, Abuja; C.B.S Agro Limited, Abuja; Grafil
Farms Limited, Anambra State; Sumas Agro & Industrial Marketing Ltd, Enugu
State; Facel Industries Nigeria Limited, Enugu and Jafib Farmers Multi-Purpose
Cooperative Society Limited, Enugu.
The trainer, TOPCertifier, while stressing on the importance of the training for
businesses, made it clear that certification in Nigeria had been primarily
driven by the robust local food commodities industry, supported by a strong
demand from cosmetic and small-scale manufacturing industries. He said, “With the current COVID-19 scenario, we have seen new demand
from food products, medicines, medical devices, personal protective equipment
(PPE) like masks, gloves.” Internationally, organisations are placing
more emphasis on processes and certifications in the current scenario.
Businesses are required to get
certified for regulatory purposes, including safe and secure workplace, safe
products, to protect customer and public information and legal and regulatory
compliance. Others are for contractual purposes such as requirement for export,
eligibility for tenders, requirement for vendor empanelment, compliance with
client processes and compliance with industry best practices. Parts of the
purposes are branding credibility, brand positioning, edge over competitors,
satisfied employees and satisfied customers.
