Head of the Indonesian Trade Promotion Center (ITPC) Lagos Hendro Jonathan said the potential for the transaction was seen through an inquiry form, exploring hybrid business deals, and discussion activities of Indonesian and Nigerian entrepreneurs.

"Furthermore, ITPC Lagos will follow up on this activity through an online meeting with prospective suppliers and post several e-Inquirys on the Inaexport website. In addition, there is also a plan to visit prospective Nigerian buyers to Indonesia which we direct to be able to participate in Trade Expo Indonesia," Hendro said as quoted by Antara, Tuesday, March 28.
