The FG has approved a policy that would ensure Nigerian-made goods are up to global standards for export.

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has approved the National Quality Control policy for exports.

This was disclosed by the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Niyi Adebayo, in a meeting with  State House Correspondents after the FEC meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday.

According to Adebayo, the policy would ensure Nigerian-made goods are up to global standards for export. The government will work with the private sector in setting up quality testing centres and labs to approve goods that have met the required standard.
