ABSTRACT

International purchasing is one of the major ways a country relates with other countries. It not only encourages or build relationship with these countries it builds the economy of a nation. International purchasing is not an individual thing. It requires a nation to set up a committee or council to organize and monitor international purchasing. This is why in Nigeria, the government established Nigerian export promotion council to be in charge of international purchasing. They are charged with the responsibility of: a. Promoting the development and diversification of Nigerian export trade. b. Publishing and servicing trade enquires. c. Organizing trade exhibitions to expose exporters in the international scenes. d. Organizing forum to discuss and enlightens NEPC though they are charged with these responsibilities; they encounter some difficulties that make their work difficult, causing people to believe that they are not relevant. Therefore, bearing this in mind, this research is aimed at proving that NEPC plays their role effectively and also relevant, and proffer solution that may help NEPC to improve the service it renders. This will make them play their role effectively and make them more relevant.

 

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY 

Purchasing activity is a very important activity in every aspect of life. Purchasing is being carried out by individuals, co-operate bodies, manufacturing organizations, etc and as a matter of fact, needs to be studied very closely. Purchasing in most manufacturing organizations and co-operate bodies engage in international purchasing and as a matter of fact are been guided by rules and regulations which are related to buying and selling abroad. In this study, analysis will be on the role of Nigeria export promotion council in international purchasing. The export promotion council have its main concern in the activities of the international market as it relates to Nigeria as an entity. This body will be viewed from the points of the purchaser and how the activities affect purchasing abroad. The council was established in 1979 by the federal military government under Decree No. 72 of 1979 is guided by some rules and regulations, which exporters must keep to and with existing rules to be adhered to by exporters. The purchasers also in their own side are influenced by these rules because what is available in the market is what they have the chances of purchasing from the international market for their organizations.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

This study resulted as a result of the problems encountered by exporters in this nation The researcher is interested in finding out the reason for the infrastructural bottlenecks of deficient road/rail network and post services, insufficient and unreliable supply of power, water and telecommunication. Bureaucratic and policy obstacles in government administration associated with regulation control, application procedures and cooperation of public agencies. Inadequate or poor fund raising internally to be able to run the council.

1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY 

The study is on the analysis of the role of the Nigerian export promotion council in international purchasing. The purpose of this is to:

a. To spearhead the creation of necessary export incentives and actively promote the implementation of export policies and programmes of the country.

b. To evaluate how effective international purchasing could be achieved with the assistance of the council.

c. To coordinate and monitor export promotion activities in the country.

d. To find out the extent the council has been able to influence international purchasing positively.

e. To provide the development and diversification of Nigeria export trade and how purchasing has responded to the existing council’s rules and regulations.

f. To assist in promoting the development of export oriented industries in the country.

1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

This study was carried out in Nigeria export promotion council in Aba-Abia state. Data and information were obtained from managers and supervisors. There is no intention in this research work to cover all aspects of NEPC and their method of operation as such will be beyond the scope of this study. The exporting system of NEPC has made a remarkable mark in the exporting of the Nigeria export promotion council goods since its inception in Nigeria. In this study we will focus on the effectiveness of exporting in NEPC, identifying alternative channels of exporting and emphasizing its importance in the marketability of Nigeria export promotion council.

1.5 RESEARCH QUESTION

1) To what extent does Nigeria export promotion council enhance international purchasing?

2) Will financial incentives granted to exporters enhance international purchasing?

3) How does seminars, workshops and other promotional activities organized for exporters by Nigerian export promotion council improve international purchasing?

4) What are the likely challenges for financial incentives granted to exporters?

5) Has the establishment of Nigerian export promotion council helped international buyers in Nigeria?

1.6 RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS 

The hypothesis is tested so as to enable the formulation of adequate opinion and also help to draw conclusion on whether the data is accepted or rejected.

HYPOTHESIS I

Ho: Fully operational Nigerian export promotion council will not lead to more international purchasing.

H1: Fully operational Nigerian export promotion council will lead to more international purchasing.

1.7 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY 

The issue of the role of Nigeria export promotion council in international purchasing is “very” important issue because the activities of the Nigerian export promotion council influences the world market. The study of the role of the council to purchasing will help those involved in buying abroad to get more information on how to cope with this council and thereby ensuring effective and efficient buying. Another area of the significance of this study is that, the research could also be used by other researchers in the future who would also be investigating on the role of the council in purchasing.

1.8 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

The foremost limitation that was encountered in the course of the study was the difficulty of meeting the managers, supervisors and workforce because of their tight schedule and method of operation. Even when audience was granted, information was not released easily by the managers for fear of information getting to their competitors and work force also had the fear that they may either loose their job or be punished if they release information. Finally, due to financial implications associated with being a student researcher, the focus of this research was limited to information from Nigeria export promotion council, the polytechnic library and internet.
