Niger Foods Security Systems and Logistics Company Ltd has formally entered into a tripartite agreement with the Chamber of Commerce for the Americas, Africa, and the Caribbean (CAFRAM), and The Origin Group.
The collaboration aims to promote business advocacy, create platforms for strategic networking, and support inclusive economic development, all in line with the legal and foreign policy frameworks of Brazil and Nigeria.
As part of the agreement, the parties will jointly establish and operate the Brazil-Nigeria Chamber of Commerce—a non-exclusive, multi-regional platform open to stakeholders from Brazil, Nigeria, the Americas, Africa, and the Caribbean.
The initiative will be facilitated through the Câmara de Comércio Indústria e Serviços África América e Caribe (CAFRAM).
Under the agreement, Niger Foods will serve as a co-promoter and institutional founding member of the Chamber, providing strategic advisory services on agro-industrial trade, investment, and logistics between Nigeria and Brazil. CAFRAM will oversee the establishment and formalisation of the Chamber, which will host its secretariat in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, Brazil.
