Jointly organised by the Embassy of Nigeria in Brussels | NEPC | COLEAD AGRINFO | Amplified by EUNAP
About This Webinar
Doing business with the EU? Then you already know — keeping up with EU agri-food import regulations is a full-time challenge. Pesticide limits change. Sustainability rules tighten. New border controls appear. And a missed update can mean rejected shipments, lost buyers, and missed revenue.
That’s exactly why this webinar exists. On 5 March 2026, the Embassy of Nigeria in Brussels, NEPC, and COLEAD’s EU-funded AGRINFO programme are bringing together the sharpest EU policy minds and Nigeria’s top trade officials for a comprehensive briefing on everything Nigerian agri-food exporters need to know about the EU right now. EUNAP is proud to amplify this event to our growing community.
