Dear Readers,
The
Management of 3T Impex Consulting Limited
hereby introduce our Export Skill
Acquisition and Mentoring Programme (ESAMP) to individual/organization (Politicians,
government, NGO, philanthropist etc) who are looking for sustainable youth empowerment programmes to
sponsor in their communities, local governments, states and geo-political zones.
ESAMP is designed to give the Nigerian graduates hands on
training in the area of non-oil export. This training will enable them acquire
the skills that are necessary for them to export different items (like food
items, solid minerals and Agricultural commodities) from Nigeria and thereby
earn foreign exchange and at the same time boost our foreign reserve.
This programme goes beyond the training (which includes
export and entrepreneurship training) for 3weeks in the sense that, it includes
aggregating them into groups of cooperatives after the training. The sponsor
then provides funds for each of the cooperatives and with this we can then take
them through an Export Mentoring programme. The mentoring will involve hand
holding them through the export processes (which include export planning,
getting buyers abroad, sourcing good quality products, export documentation and
port logistics) during their first sets of shipments till they can stand on
their own and thereby becomes employers of labour.
This programme is unique and very laudable in the sense
that it will expose the trainees to the potentials of the natural resources in
the different geo-political zones of Nigeria, create entrepreneurs from among
them and thus make them to become employers of labour in the nearest future. This
will consequently increase employment opportunities and thus reduce poverty in
the nation.
The ESAMP has been logically and systematically divided
into five phases namely: Export Training,
Aggregation into Cooperatives, Export Planning, Export Financing and Export
Mentoring. The first three phases of this programme will take place in a camp
while the remaining phases will take in their various locations upon receipt of
funds from the sponsor.
The
training will be done in batches depending on the number of people the financier
intends to sponsor. Interested candidate will be asked to submit business plan
on exportation of any Nigeria product or commodity. The candidates with the
best 200 business plan will then undergo the training phase of the programme.
At
the end of the training, the candidates will be allowed form 10 cooperatives of
20 members each. Each Cooperative will
be given N30Million as a grant to commence their export businesses and share
the proceeds. This fund will be treated as a convertible loan from federal
which will be converted to grant if they perform well and make significant
progress in their export operations and or withdrawn from them if the funds are
mismanaged by the group.
The ESAMP has numerous benefits and this include Building
a self –sustaining system to empower the Youths and grow their SME export
businesses. It will cause increase in demand for both Agric commodities and
solid minerals and thereby create more Job for the farmers and miners and this will
in turn reduce poverty among the good people and boost the economy. This initiative will create a legacy for
which all the good people of the Nigeria will remember and be forever grateful
to the sponsor.
We are willing to sell the copyright of this idea to any
individual/organization (Politicians, government, NGO, philanthropist etc) who would
like own the idea and implement by themselves or with our support and input.
