CHALLENGES FACED WHILE SHIPPING FROM NIGERIA TO U.S.
International shipping is not easy. As one navigates through the process, mistakes are bound to happen. Common challenges faced by importers include:
1. Improper Packaging: This often occurs when the shipper does not use proper packaging materials thereby leading to an impact on the shipment while in transit, this impact could be damage and/or theft of the shipment.
ShiptoNaija Advantage:

- All items dropped off at our Lagos office are always properly packaged with the right materials and box sizes to avoid damages.
- Our warehouse team is highly skilled in the packaging of items for import from Nigeria which ensures that your products reaches you in perfect condition
- We place instructions regarding how shipments are to be handled to avoid damages, spillage etc. For instance, fragile stickers are placed on shipments containing fragile items.
- If the cargo being shipped is fragile cargo like ceramics, glass, porcelain, artworks or other easily breakable stuff, we make sure the cartons have some protective packaging like packing peanuts (the bio-degradable variety please) or dunnage airbags which helps protect items inside the standard-size corrugated shipping containers.
- If we are shipping any machinery or equipment that cannot be palletized, we also make sure that the machinery has suitable hooking and lifting points.
- In general, we do everything to ensure the safety of all items that we are shipping from Nigeria to USA
2. Logistics and Customs Clearance: The rules, regulations and laws as to Customs sometimes differ. In the event of a problem with customs clearance, it could lead to an adverse effect in business as the delay caused by customs clearance problems would mean that it would take longer for the good to get to get to their destination.

ADVANTAGE OF IMPORTATION FROM NIGERIA; AGOA AND OTHER BENEFITS.
It is no secret that Nigerian resources highly contribute to the US industries, especially agricultural and textile industries. The United States yearly imports from Nigeria run into billions of dollars.
Both the US and Nigerian government have encouraged bilateral trade between the two countries and have sought to improve trade relations between the countries. One of the measures put in place for the improvement of trade relations is the Trade and Investments Framework Agreement between US and Nigeria entered into in February, 2000, and includes the following objectives;
- To further develop both countries’ international trade and economic interrelationship.
- Recognizing the importance of fostering an open and predictable environment for international trade and investment.
- Recognizing the benefits to each party resulting from increased international trade and investment, etc.
Through this Agreement, both the United States and Nigeria have affirmed their desire to expand trade in products and services, as well as take appropriate measures to encourage and facilitate the exchange of goods and services through international shipping.
Also, the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) of which Nigeria is a beneficiary, has provided unrestricted access of Nigerian products into the US market. Hence, Nigerian products can enter the American market relatively easier and cheaper, thereby increasing profit for the importers wise enough to take advantage of this international shipping opportunity.
Importing products from Nigeria comes with numerous benefits. One of such benefits is the huge extension of profit margin. It is more useful to import certain products from Nigeria because the material and production costs are considerably lower. Also, shipping from Nigeria certain products is a sure-fire way of getting higher quality products.
PRODUCTS THAT CAN BE IMPORTED FROM NIGERIA TO UNITED STATES
There are a wide range of products which can be imported from Nigeria, ranging from raw materials to locally processed goods and others. Some of them are as follows:
- Kolanut: Nigeria, being the major producer of Kolanut, produces approximately 150,000 tons annually. A good amount of kolanut is shipped from Nigeria to the US where it is being developed for use as alternative medicine. It is highly medicinal and has a lot of herbal uses. Indeed, Kolanut is becoming increasingly popular as a form of treatment in the US.
- Leather: The raw materials for leather and its products are mainly from livestock, and Nigeria is endowed with the third largest livestock population in Africa. Presently, the world footwear and leather products sector is moving towards lower production cost countries such as Nigeria in a bid to maximize profit. You can also make huge profits shipping from Nigeria to USA
- African Fabrics, Textiles and other fashion items: it is interesting to note that native “made in Nigeria” wears such as Ankara, buba, kaftan, agbada, beads and the likes can enter duty-free into the US market. In the textile and apparel category, Nigeria was the first country to be granted the Category 9 Certification by US which allows for exportation of African prints to the United States. Fabrics and textiles shipping from Nigeria can fetch you some extra money.
- Locally produced foodstuff and spices: Other locally produced goods which are highly sought after and produce great profit in the US include Cassava flakes, ginger, yam flour, beans flour, cocoa beans, plantain flour, groundnut, melon, beans, rice etc. Shipping of these will yield many financial retuns regardless of its for personal or commercial purposes
