EXPORT NEWS
Efforts by the CBN to defend the naira may become futile if an exportimport balance is not addressed under the Federal Government's fiscal agenda, as speculators continue to mop up the apex bank's dollar intervention in the parallel markets. The Chairman, Export Group, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), Dr. Obiora Madu, urged the CBN to revive the window for export proceeds, stating that the market prices of local commodities are higher than those of the international markets. According to him, we have always advocated a window for export proceeds. It was done before because exporters are not making money. The idea of foreigners directly sourcing commodities from the local farmers and markets is affecting commodity prices. Foreigners with soft funds are muzzling small businesses out of business. Politics will have to be right, regulation needs to come in and government needs to show commitment to its non-oil export agenda", he added. (Excerpt from www.guardian.ng)
FG to ban Exportation of Unprocessed Solid Minerals by October
First Export train sets off for China from UK
T
he Minister of Mines and Steel Development, Dr Kayode Fayemi, says the Federal Government plans to stop exportation of unprocessed solid minerals by October.
Fayemi made this known in Abuja on Thursday when delivering a lecture on "Nigeria's Solid Minerals: Prospects and Challenges and the Nation's Quest for Economic Diversification" at the induction training for non-career ambassadors-designate. The minister urged the ambassadors designate to attract investors into the mining sector of the economy. He said that the plan to stop mining and exportation of raw or unprocessed solid minerals from the country was part of the ministry's roadmap. According to him, before now, a lot of illegality has been going in the sector. People are just shipping out raw minerals; this has informed the government's policy or decision to place a ban on unprocessed minerals. "In the next six months, raw minerals will not be allowed to be exported," he said. (Excerpt from www.nta.ng)

train loaded with British goods, has started a 12,000 km journey from England to China, opening a regular direct service between the countries.
It pulled away from Stanford-le-Hope in Essex carrying Whisky, soft drinks, vitamins, pharmaceuticals and baby products are among the items in 30 containers by train. The locomotive will travel through the Channel Tunnel, and then seven countries - France, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Belarus, Russia, and Kazakhstan - before arriving on April 27. According to Xubin Feng (Chairman of Yiwu Timex Industrial Investment&Organizer of this service) said rail journey to China is cheaper than sending freight by air and faster than a voyage by ship, thus, this is the first export train and just the start of a regular direct service between the UK and China. To this end, "We have great faith in the UK as an export nation and rail provides an excellent alternative for moving large volumes of goods over long distances faster," he added.

It involves a FREE export workshop and advisory services for different group of people in different parts of the country.
