Nigeria exported 281 non-oil products in 2025 – WTC boss

The Vice President of the World Trade Centre Abuja, Karim Ahmed, has announced that Nigeria exported 281 non-oil products to 120 countries in 2025, generating a record-breaking $6.1 billion in revenue. Speaking at the Premier Export Launchpad Bootcamp, Ahmed emphasized that these exports demonstrate that Nigerian products and services are capable of competing internationally across various sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing, technology, the creative economy, and professional services.

However, he highlighted that Nigerian businesses must address challenges such as market knowledge, standards, certifications, logistics, documentation, payment systems, and consistency to sustain their presence in international markets. The Export Launchpad Bootcamp aims to help businesses assess their readiness for international trade, identify viable markets, and understand the practical requirements for exporting.
