“The top commodities in terms of total exported products were Urea/Fertilizer which accounted for 20.10% while Cocoa Beans came second at 13.19% and Sesame Seeds took the third position at 9.03%.

“There were quite a number of other exportable products that contributed significantly to this huge volume of exports recorded in 2023.”

“A total of 32 banks participated in the establishment of Nigeria Export Proceed Form, NXP forms for export for the year 2023 with a total number of 21,390 NXP forms processed.

“Zenith Bank PLC processed the highest NXP at 39.03%, while United Bank of Africa (UBA) Plc and First Bank of Nigeria recorded 10.55% and 9.88% respectively.

“1,145 exporting companies actively exported Nigeria’s products in the year 2023, this figure can be improved with adequate funding, capacity building and mentorship.”
