AfCFTA Trade Launch, Updates and Implementation Resources
On January 1st, 2021, trading under the newly formed African Continental Free Trade Area began. This event marks the actualization of the vision of the One African Market. The African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) has the ability to unlock and unleash Africa’s vast Economic Potential - *if effective implementation plans are put in place by each beneficiary Nation. Watch video below as I share more with Al Jazeera on what AfCFTA means for MSMEs, Women, Youth and Economic Growth.
The AfCFTA is about increasing productivity on the African Continent, Youth Empowerment and integrating women into the mainstream of regional and global trade. Women control most of the informal sector so formalizing trade across Africa cannot be achieved without the inclusion of women at all levels.
Large businesses across Africa have a higher capacity to access trade information, resources and investments they need to immediately craft their continent-wide market penetration strategy to take advantage of this trade deal. However, MSMEs, which make up the base of Africa, are struggling and will continue to struggle if no immediate Export development and Market Entry interventions are put in place.
At the grassroots level, local engagement is required to unlock opportunities for the youth and Master plans developed at the Federal, State and Local levels for a country such as Nigeria.
Below are programs we at Nazaru have in place to support and help your advance your AfCFTA implementation efforts:
