Research Note – Understanding Nigeria’s Trade Profile
About the project
Nigeria’s trade profile has historically been defined by an interesting mix of export and import dependence. On the export side, Nigeria has been reliant on the export of crude oil for between 80 – 90% of its export earnings, a significant portion of government revenue, and a critical source of foreign exchange. On the import side, Nigeria has been dependent on the import of refined petroleum products for its energy supply, as well as various food products and manufactured goods.
