In a significant development, the Nigerian Export Processing Zones Authority (NEPZA) and the Cross River State Government have announced a strategic partnership to revitalize the Tinapa Free Trade Zone. This collaborative effort aims to breathe new life into the economic potential of the Tinapa Free Trade Zone, fostering trade, investment, and economic growth in the region.
The Tinapa Free Trade Zone, located in Cross River State, has been a prominent economic zone with vast potential. However, in recent years, challenges and underutilization have hindered its full capacity. The partnership between NEPZA and the Cross River State Government signals a commitment to overcoming these challenges and repositioning Tinapa as a vibrant hub for business activities.
The collaboration is expected to involve joint efforts in infrastructure development, regulatory support, and promotional activities to attract local and international investors to the Free Trade Zone. The revitalization of Tinapa is seen as a strategic move to harness its unique advantages and contribute to the economic development of Cross River State and Nigeria as a whole.
In a joint statement, NEPZA and the Cross River State Government expressed their shared commitment to creating an enabling environment for businesses within the Tinapa Free Trade Zone. The partnership aims to leverage the expertise of NEPZA in managing export processing zones and the local insights of the state government to address specific challenges and unlock the full potential of Tinapa.
This collaboration comes at a time when governments and economic authorities are actively seeking ways to boost trade and attract investments to drive economic recovery. The Tinapa Free Trade Zone, with its strategic location and existing infrastructure, presents a valuable opportunity for such endeavors.
