Jigawa Exporter Enlightenment Forum: Empowering Local Exporters

NEXIM Bank hosted the Jigawa Exporter Enlightenment Forum, an event designed to engage and support local entrepreneurs in their journey to becoming successful exporters. As part of our mission to promote trade and empower Nigerian businesses, the forum offered a unique opportunity for Jigawa-based exporters to learn more about the global marketplace, the challenges and opportunities that exist, and how they can leverage NEXIM Bank’s services to grow their businesses.

The forum featured a series of expert-led discussions that focused on various aspects of exporting, including access to financing, navigating the complexities of export documentation, and understanding global market demands. Entrepreneurs also received practical guidance on how to break into international markets and build a sustainable export business. One of the highlights of the event was the opportunity for local businesses to connect with trade experts, international partners, and organizations that can help them scale and expand their reach beyond regional borders.

For NEXIM Bank, the forum was an important opportunity to reinforce our commitment to supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and to showcase the export financing products and services we offer. The need to create awareness and enable local businesses access the global international markets, spurs us to we organize such events where we equip exporters with the necessary tools, resources, and knowledge to succeed. With the right support, we believe that businesses from Jigawa and other states can increase their exports, contribute to Nigeria’s trade growth, and play a key role in the nation’s economic development.
