Understand the market before committing resources.

We help Chinese manufacturers investigate the Nigerian commercial landscape, identify relevant customer segments, understand distribution channels, and assess potential opportunities for their products.

Possible activities

  • Market opportunity research
  • Competitor identification
  • Customer-segment mapping
  • Distribution-channel research

The objective is to help companies make better-informed decisions before investing heavily in the Nigerian market.

Buyer and Distributor Discovery

Possible activities

  • Identifying relevant companies
  • Researching their product categories
  • Assessing their apparent market relevance
  • Developing prospect lists
  • Qualifying prospects against agreed criteria
  • Facilitating introductions where appropriate

Qualification reflects the research and checks actually performed. It does not mean a prospect is verified or ready to buy.

  • Business-contact identification

China Sourcing and Supplier Discovery

Find potential Chinese manufacturers for your requirements.

We help Nigerian businesses research manufacturers and suppliers in China based on product specifications, intended use, target price range, quantity, and other requirements.

Possible activities

  • Product and manufacturer research
  • Supplier shortlisting
  • Preliminary comparison of available suppliers
  • Request-for-quotation coordination
  • Communication support
  • Assistance initiating commercial discussions

Supplier discovery does not automatically include independent verification or quality assurance. Factory audits, inspections, laboratory testing, shipping and customs clearance are offered only under clearly agreed arrangements, directly where Indigo has the capability or through suitable external providers.
