The Nigerian Export Promotion Council briefed and selected its delegates for the Togo International Trade fair recently. The event held at the NEPC Conference Hall Lagos.      
                           
The briefing and selection process was coordinated by the following directors: Director, Market Development Department, Mr. Matthew Adebayo Iranloye; Deputy Director, Products Department, Mrs. Evelyn Obidike, and Assistant Director, Market Development Department, Mr. Samson Monehin. The briefing and selection process was primarily for the purpose of passing on information and selection of products to be exhibited at the trade fair.  

Mr. Iranloye addressed the interested participants on relevant details concerning the products and the fair. He pointed out that selected products were to arrive on or before the morning of the 16th of November as that is when they are scheduled to take-off. While emphasising that only the selected products must be brought to the venue, he said “some participants who were selected to exhibit product A will instead come along with products A and B.” He added also that the selected products were not to weigh above 100 kilograms; advising the participants to include resources for re-branding, in case the council sees the need for a change. 

Iranloye also re-affirmed the policy of the NEPC saying “it is only after returning from the trade fair that you will be considered for a rebate of your flight tickets and for those who prefer to go by road, a flat rate list will be given.

The Togo International Trade Fair is the annual exhibition of Lome and it is very important. Its 12th edition will start from the 20th of November to the 8th of December, 2015 and will feature investors from all around the globe.
