NEPC eyes Ivorian market to drive Nigeria’s export earnings

THE Nigerian Export Promotion Council is targeting Ivory Coast to expand the country’s non-oil exports and boost foreign exchange earnings.

The Executive Director of the Nigerian Export Promotion Council, Dr. Ezra Yakusak, who spoke in Abuja during the launch of the Made in Nigeria Exhibition and Nigeria-Cote D’Ivoire Excellent Award organised by SCIAYO and Ecomarkket, said the council was interested in boosting Nigeria’s non-oil export earnings.

He stressed the need for Nigerian exporters to capture the West African market before extending to the other markets, especially with the signing of the Africa Continental Free Trade Agreement. Yakusak said the Export Trade House, which was recently launched by the NEPC in Cairo, Egypt, would boost made-in-Nigerian products, reduce the cost of logistics on Nigerian small and medium enterprises while creating jobs for young Nigerians.
