Cloud computing and other tech advances have been boosted by Nigerian data centers, like those operated by Google and Microsoft. As part of the government’s initiatives to promote digital innovation and entrepreneurship, Nigeria has established several tech startups and incubators, making it a major player in African tech.

Importing into Nigeria: The Complexities

Data centers have sprung up in Nigeria, attracting everyone from small firms to multinationals. Nigeria has 23% of the continent’s internet users and is the biggest consumer electronics market. With government initiatives to encourage digital innovation and entrepreneurship, the country’s tech market is growing rapidly, resulting in more startups and tech hubs.

Nigeria can be challenging to import goods into, since depending on the nature and value of the goods, they may require both pre- and post-inspection, which has to be done by outside parties. A time-consuming inspection process means businesses have to delay deliveries and add costs.

Recently, Nigeria has made some progress in streamlining its trade procedures, like implementing a Single Window platform where all trade-related documents can be submitted through a single electronic portal. That’s going to help import goods go faster and cheaper.
