- Nigerian Government is likely to continue to spend about 3.7% of GDP per year on infrastructure between 2017 and 2030 and close to 3.1% of GDP between 2030 and 2040.
- Nigeria is expected to build the Lekki Lagos Airport on a 3,000-hectare plot and largest Deep Sea Port project at a budget of USD 1.5 billion which is expected to be completed by 2020 that will decongest the traffic near Lagos promoting efficient transportation.
- Dangote Industries is building a new refinery in Lekki zone near Lagos which is expected to be completed by 2022, thereby increasing the trade of refined petroleum between the countries.
International Trade Agreements to Boost Foreign Trade: The bilateral and free trade agreements with various countries, along with involvement in initiatives such as ECOWAS and AGOA, trade is expected to improve substantially. With the African Continental Free Trade Agreement, Nigeria now has free access to the entire African market thereby improving the trade between the neighboring countries and impacting the logistics sector in the future.
Expected Boost in Manufacturing and Export Sector: The government is focusing on small and medium scale industries under Economic Recovery Growth Plan (ERGP) that will make the country less dependent on foreign imports and boost the manufacturing sector in the future. The new refinery by Dangote Industries will increase refined petroleum exports to foreign countries. Under Vision 2020, Nigeria places an emphasis on large-scale transport projects in rail, road and shipping segments which are also set to boost demand for logistics services.
Advancement in Technology: While GPS tracking and control towers are standard in Western companies, they are still not very popular in Nigeria and are upcoming technologies. Other upcoming technologies include real-time fuel management systems, cargo management systems and communication and information systems such as EDI which can be used to reduce paperwork and minimize the time taken for compliance procedures.
