Sterling Bank, Nigeria’s premier commercial bank, is set to boost foreign exchange earnings for Nigerian SMEs through a strategic partnership with Export And Sell Nigeria Limited (EAS).
The collaboration will see the launch of the “Export to Wealth” conference on the 6th and 7th of March 2024, aimed at empowering 2,000 export-ready businesses with the tools and resources needed for successful international sales.
This innovative initiative underscores Sterling Bank’s dedication to driving economic growth and empowering businesses of all sizes to thrive in the global market.
By joining forces with Export and Sell Nigeria Limited, the bank is poised to deliver a transformative event that equips entrepreneurs with the skills and knowledge required to navigate international trade complexities.
The “Export to Wealth” conference will offer workshops and networking opportunities to guide businesses through the export process, providing insights into market trends, e-commerce strategies, and regulatory compliance, with a focus on accessing the US market.
Mustapha Otaru, Chief Product Officer at Sterling Bank, expressed excitement about the partnership, emphasizing the bank’s commitment to supporting local businesses and fostering economic development.
Nduka Udeh, Chairman and CEO of Export And Sell, highlighted the seminar’s goal of training Nigerian businesses with exportable products to tap into international markets, adhere to international standards, and earn foreign exchange through exports.
The event will leverage Export and Sell Nigeria Limited’s expertise in international trade and e-commerce to position Nigerian businesses for success on the global stage.
This initiative further solidifies Sterling Bank’s commitment to SME growth in Nigeria, following a recent agreement with SMEDAN to disburse N 5 billion in capital to businesses at a single-digit interest rate, stimulating sustainable growth in the Nigerian economy.
