About the award

An export readiness grant interview examines whether a Nigerian business is prepared to sell and fulfil orders in a chosen foreign market. The panel tests buyer evidence, product and packaging compliance, supply reliability, landed costs and the precise readiness gap the grant will close. Check the official programme and relevant authorities for current eligibility, permitted spending, standards and export documentation.

How to prepare

  1. Choose a specific market and buyer segment, then gather credible evidence of demand and competing products.
  2. Confirm current product, packaging, labelling and documentation requirements through official sources for the destination market.
  3. Map production, quality checks, freight, customs responsibilities, delivery and payment from end to end.
  4. Calculate landed cost and cash needs under realistic logistics, currency and payment scenarios.
  5. Tie the grant budget to readiness gaps that can be verified through documents, tests or buyer progress.

Common mistakes

  • Choosing a whole country as the target without identifying a buyer segment or route to market.
  • Assuming domestic packaging and product checks automatically meet the destination's current rules.
  • Quoting an export price without freight, duties, payment delays or currency risk.
  • Accepting a large order without proving production capacity and consistent quality.
