Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by DrMB(op): 12:06pm On Sep 16, 2025
Nigeria’s trade compass points East for what we buy and West for what we sell. Imports are dominated by China and the U.S., while exports flow heavily to Spain, India, and France. This split reveals both opportunity and vulnerability - dependency on Asia for supply, but reliance on Europe for demand.

So we are not exporting anything to china

We need to do better.

Everyone is doing business with China, and everyone is afraid of the United State. Why?
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by sammyscholar(m): 7:04pm On Sep 16, 2025
China economy is very, very closed to imports. China doesn't absolve other nations' products as much as it wants others to absolve hers.

To me, India is a better partner.
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by Lanre1st(m): 7:05pm On Sep 16, 2025
⁶impressive that we have export amounted to those huge amounts

China's case is still fair. Have you seen any electronics made in Russia before?
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by GboyegaD(m): 7:08pm On Sep 16, 2025
This is some good news. Our top exports are close to our imports, and our balance of trade and balance of payment should be in a relatively good spot. Does the statistics report the top items imported and exported?

We can still export the pampers to them since we have in abundance

Nigeria shouldnt be importing from the US.

Makes no sense after the trump tariff
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by malali: 7:12pm On Sep 16, 2025
It evens out

We are buying 9 trillion in imports and getting 9trillion from exports.

We either have to decrease our imports or increase our exports.
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by Fiscus105(m):
But China trade deficit is too high o, I think federal government should find solutions to reduce the gap
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by Victory10000: 7:14pm On Sep 16, 2025
Surprising. It's time to focus on how we can start making things for ourselves
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by Johnson5258: 7:14pm On Sep 16, 2025
There is a close margin between our trade Import and Export to India. But we are not exporting to US and China despite the trillions we send to them. We need more strategic partnerships with them. It has to work for both.
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by omoredia: 7:16pm On Sep 16, 2025
Importing more than exporting. As it was during the time of slavery
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by osuofia2(m): 7:17pm On Sep 16, 2025
Our export is encouraging, Keep it up. What's are we really exporting to Spain?
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by Image123(m): 7:17pm On Sep 16, 2025
What on earth are we exporting to Spain and the Netherlands? Hope its not ofio, or japa candidates?

China is a very selfish county, they wouldn't want to get from you but would love to ship everything to your country.

They don't recognize Nigeria as trading partners, that amount you see there is insignificant to their economy

Brazil shouldn't only join the list Brazil should replace the lousy US. We import products worth over #2trillion naira from the US in just 3 months while US isn't buying products not even petrol from us yet Trump has the gut to be feeling funky? I'm glad Tinubu is calling his bluff. Next tariff from Trump then Nigeria should look elsewhere. Those yeye warplanes we are buying and yet the terrorists are increasing daily because Nigeria is a fertile ground for religious indoctrination and fanatism which breeds terror. Reorientation and education seems to be the only effective weapon but the northern politicians benefits from the illiteracy of their people which unknown to them, is a two edged sword
Re: Nigeria’s Top Trading Partners Q2 2025 by michlins(m): 7:25pm On Sep 16, 2025
How about we have direct currency swap with china and boycott the dollar. I think it's the best position for us
