The managing director of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Dr Abubakar Dantsoho, has implored the trading and investing public to explore the tailor-made simplified export processes and other vistas of opportunity present at the Nigerian Ports Authority.

Dr Dantsoho made this call on the occasion of the ‘NPA Special Day’ at the 36th Enugu International Trade Fair, titled, ‘Developing Nigeria’s Industrial Sector, SMEs for Economic Advancement and Global Recognition’.

According to him, the Authority in its bid to contribute and strengthen the domestic economy through the promotion of balance of trade, established the Export Process Terminal (EPTs) to simplify the hitherto burdensome process of exporting Nigerian goods abroad.

He further stated that NPA has put measures in place to link value creators in the remotest part of the hinterland with the farthest clusters of demand anywhere on the globe.

The NPA boss stated that as Nigeria’s foremost trade facilitation platform, the NPA is always proud to be associated with the noble cause that the Trade Fair represents.

Dr Dantsoho noted that trade remains the most veritable tool for actualising most of the nation’s economic aspirations.

He assured stakeholders that the doors of NPA are always open for partnerships even beyond the trade fair.

“I, therefore, want to warmly invite you to interact with our business development team at the NPA pavilion and to also visit our fully interactive online real-time website,e www.nigerianports.gov.n,g, to access our growth offerings.”

“The EPTs were conceptualized to serve as a one-stop-shop for cargo consolidation, stuffing, documentation, packaging, certification and onward shipment through electronic call-up to the Ports in quick turnaround time thus eliminating the duplications and bureaucratic overlaps that previously rendered Nigerian exports uncompetitive in the international marketplace.

“To facilitate Port-Hinterland connectivity and create pathways for Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) to play in the export value chain, the EPTs are to be linked with Domestic Export Warehouses (DEWs) in synergy with the NEPC and relevant partners.

“To align with the ease of doing business orientation of the Federal Government and the theme of the year’s fair, we are aggressively simplifying our export processes to enable made-in-Nigeria goods to transit through our Ports as seamlessly as possible.”

The NPA MD further disclosed that to achieve the goal, the Authority eliminates the human interface which encourages underhand dealing by pursuing the full automation of NPA processes and procedures through the Ports Community System (PCS,) which lays the groundwork for the implementation of the National Single Window (NSW).

“For clarity, the NSW is the global best practice for delivering the greatest value with the greatest ease by connecting all stakeholders in the trade value chain for seamless interaction at the push of a button,” Dr Dantsoho said.

Dr Dantsoho commended the Enugu Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines & Agriculture (ECCIMA) for its resilience in sustaining the culture of hospitality and business friendliness that has continued to attract people from all over the globe to be a part of the Trade Fair which is deepening economic prosperity.

He stated that the strategic positioning of Enugu as the gateway to the South-Eastern hinterland presents huge opportunities for the expansion of export opportunities which is the focal point of the Authority.
