There are many things you don't know bro. Ppl are exporting big time . The point u will only have knowledge of what you seek. Dont sit down on nairaland and expect ppl to tell you what and how they export. You have to go out there and leave this nairaland fantasy island. Ppl are into exportation big big big time from goods worth 50k naira upwards and making real profits

Bros. Go and enjoy your export. All of us cannot face the same direction

Singapore1:


Very few people are into exportation trust me!!!

onatisi:
ok I hear u. I no go argue.

Singapore1:


I don't think the government are making the exportation of a thing an easy thing, in Nigeria importation is very easy compare to exportation... Take nairaland for instance .. There are many topics on importation, some people even have Chinese contact ( direct contact)
Now how many topics have you seen on importation?
Personally I know there are some goods I can't import but I don't know goods I can or can't export..
We have different logistics company for importation, how many logistics do we have for exportation NONE

While we are blaming the government let's not forget the individuals

Singapore1:

And I was about to quote you with "you are right though "

BizBloke:


The government has been making importation difficult since the early days but Nigerians have been importing. Why there are many topics on importation is because it's very easy like you stated; exportation is kinda difficult because of access to buyers, I think.

And yes, we have logistics company into export. I've been beta-testing exports since '14 and going alpha on it this month. There are other logistics companies too, running exports - I don't know if they are on Nairaland or not. If they are, they are few.

You that's talking say you'll start crying? We see your daily/weekly transactions so you're part of the solution to importers (you make RMB and USD available at a better rate than that of the black market).

Bdavis posted some solutions on the other thread; Onatisi has been posting solutions like local production, et al.

I'm not a guru but what I've been saying since '13 when I set up my company is that how we do international trade in this country is unfair and a trade imbalance; it's something that needs to be balanced aka export has to be more pronounced in action and not just small talks and dreams here and there.

It's economically right and I think it's morally right too to reverse-engineer the import process if we just don't want the money but wealth on an aggregate level. Yet, priorities differ so those who want to, will find a way to.

Well on Monday is a new day with great hope.
Bravo Sir.

if you want to elevate then you have to take some calculated risk

Singapore1:

You made a very nice point there sir ... I made some though calls these past weeks that made me realize there are some things that are easier said than done... If you want to elevate then you have to take some calculated risk

You can't just be reading and reading alone, have you theorized what you read?

mployer:


Can you do less than container load export to Europe. France precisely. I have buyers there.

I dont want air freight shipping tho.

goldtooth:


I dont know when gtb is stopping theirs, but stanbic is 18th which is Tuesday, so i intend to make a payment of $100 via paypal today using stanbic card. Make i enjoy the N320 rate from stanbic before it ends

BizBloke:


Yes, but I doubt it can go via sea; for the UK, sea is very much possible.

I'll get back to you in the AM (kindly say hi on WhatsApp: 08177252547).

Thanks

Singapore1:

Yeah according to my research, access to buyer and trust ( when it comes to payment) is the issue

BizBloke:


True! I believe over time, these issues will go minimal or be phased out entirely. Once buyers are reached, I believe some sellers-cum-buyers can work with PayPal/Payoneer.

If Nairaland or any high-profile entrepreneur had escrow in place, the payment challenge will be easily resolved.

guys, I'm a bit new to this whole moneybookers stuff.

hmm I was just wondering why skrill is taking so much time(4 days now) to process my withdrawal($1,300) to my first bank savings account. And we're supposed to make use of this money beginning from Thursday this week.

is there a much more faster way to withdraw to a Nigerian bank account?

please someone should help as this is really really urgent, I've only sent just a little quota that is taking this long to process, I cannot begin to imagine the time it may take to process future withdrawals.

Singapore1:


savings account or dorm account?

i am not understanding pls

reverendfather:
savings account, I don't have a domiciliary account.
