Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC)
Key Competitive Attractions
Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa (ca. 140 million people) and the continent’s third largest economy.
Exports are dominated by crude oil, though there are a significant number of additional resources available: natural gas, bitumen, limestone, coal, tin, columbite, gold, silver, lead-zinc, gypsum, glass sands, clays, asbestos, graphite and iron ore. Nigeria also exports cocoa, palm oil, groundnuts, cotton, timber and rubber.
Other major industries include textiles, footwear, chemicals, fertilizer, printing, ceramics and commercial ship construction and repair.
In terms of manufacturing and auto-motives, Nigeria is home to factories by Peugeot (France) and Bedford (UK).
Assistance and Support For New Business Investors
The Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission runs a one-stop investment centre with the purpose of providing information and data on the Nigerian economy as well as advice on investment opportunities.
