What a Nigerian Electronics Market Taught Me About Global Trade
.
.
In Lagos' Computer Village, Nigeria's largest electronics market, everything is imported from China. But how merchants access dollars and pay their suppliers is a challenge.
Nigeria imports $20 billion from China every year, yet dollar access problems and legacy banking systems create friction for those doing global trade.
So how do countries like Nigeria and China trade with each other?
In this episode, we head to Lagos, Nigeria, to see it firsthand - how money moves, and how new technologies like stablecoins are facilitating global trade.
In this episode of Money Trails, presented by @StellarDevelopmentFoundation, we’re joined by Ife Johnson, Co-founder & CEO of @JuicywayHQ.
