My advice on ur export biz:

Never source for a buyer when u know u have no supply base. Scrambling for leads at d nick of time shows how vulnerable and unprepared u are.

Never over stretch your financial capacity to supply. If you can do a 20ft, 40ft FCL or LCL then stick to it, till u gain buyers confidence to upgrade volume.

Never call a buyer a "customer" esp. when he hasn't opened a legitimate L/C, or hasn't traded with u before.

As most of these ginger requests are meant to measure price with other suppliers of theirs from Indonesia, which is more closer in proximity to Bangladesh and India.

They usually request unrealistic prices.

Dried split ginger FOB (free on board) hovers around $1250 - $1350 per ton.

Freight from Lagos to Chittagong and Nhava Sheva for a 40 ft depends on the shipping line u intend to use. Your forwarder will do this for u. Until u get the freight cost then can u arrive at an actual CFR (cost and freight). It should range btw $3500 and $4000 for the full 40ft container.

The price u have to beat is the FOB price from Indonesia, which ur buyer wants to hear, and it falls around $800 - $1100 per ton.

If you do have d funds and drive, I did suggest u go for ginger powder. Add a little value to your product.

Welcome on board and my best regards in all your endeavours.

Export business is a lucrative business to venture. It holds vast potential that is highly untapped and its development in Nigeria has been a positive one. The uptrend is largely due to the advancement of Information Technology and the downside fortune of the crude oil market forcing investors and government to explore alternative markets. Now, the future is non-oil products like sesame seed, ginger, shea butter, cashew nut, gum arabic, bitter kola etc. You will have known the world is like a global village and anyone can communicate with one another in real time due to the globalization of business.

You have decided to venture into the export of agro commodity from Nigeria. You won't want to make a financial mistake. You won't follow a linear pathway. You will need a broader perspective. You will need a guide. You will need a business plan, a bankable plan, a comprehensive plan that will give you a roadmap in this industry. A business plan that details on the financial analysis with in-depth profitability analysis that specifies the return on investment based on the local and foreign prices of the different commodities.

Due to my many years as a player in the industry, I can give you a standard agro-export business plan, bankable, comprehensive feasibility studies/financial analysis/Cost & profit analysis for the export of Nigeria agro products with inclusive of market analysis and intelligence. its coverage is on sesame seed, shea butter, ginger, cashew nut and gum arabic.

Inclusive is 15 other vital documents with in-depth and illustrative coverage on agro-export procedures, payment systems, documentation, planning, risk analysis, shipping companies, export unit, pricing, quotation drafting, agro-export financing, transportation, and logistics, quality control, commodity price list, local product sourcing, foreign buyers etc./07033097160
