Swede Control Intertek Ltd., an ISO-certified Pre-Shipment Inspection firm, has projected a positive outlook for Nigeria’s export sector in 2026.
It also cited stronger compliance, quality assurance, and government reforms as key drivers.
Its Managing Director, Mr Folarin Familusi, made the disclosure during a recent virtual interview with journalists in Lagos, organised to highlight the company’s recent ISO certification.
Familusi explained that the firm collaborates with the Federal Government to ensure the safety and quality of imports, verify duty collection, provide cargo security, and monitor oil and gas exports, among other responsibilities.
He said the ISO certification would enable Swede Control Intertek to deliver services in line with global standards, enhancing value for both clients and government agencies.
“The certification places our indigenous firm on the international business map, improving service efficiency and boosting customer and investor confidence,” Familusi said.

He also maintained that it had also strengthened staff morale, reduced errors, and decreased customer complaints.
He added that the company plays a critical role in the Nigerian Export Supervision Scheme, ensuring accurate reporting of crude oil exports.
“President Bola Tinubu is focused on raising Nigeria’s revenue, which makes our role vital for goods leaving or entering the country.
“Accurate duty application depends on our oversight,” he said.
Familusi further noted that the combination of government policy reforms and the firm’s ISO certification had improved investor confidence and repositioned maritime and petroleum sectors as key drivers of economic growth.
He added that the firm’s commitment to global best practices would support stronger export performance in 2026 and beyond.
