The payment of customs duty has been made easier by Red Star Express Plc, one of Nigeria’s foremost logistics solutions providers.
The firm recently launched an online platform for this, which will provide a more convenient option for customers to make such payments as they look to clear their items at the ports.
The company’s Group Managing Director, Dr Sola Obabori, in a statement, also mentioned that the platform will also offer customers other benefits alongside its convenience.
“We understand that customers demand more in terms of transparency and accountability; especially when it concerns the payment of their customs duties for items brought into the country.
“Not only does this platform give them the convenience of paying online, but customers will also be able to view the complete breakdown of these charges as determined by the agencies involved at the ports,” he said.
“As always, Red Star Express Plc will continue to strive to meet and exceed the expectations of its customers. This development is just another step towards achieving that aim,” Mr Obabori added.
Red Star Express Plc is a Licensee of Federal Express (FedEx) Corporation, the world’s largest delivery solutions provider.
It has over 150 offices in Nigeria; with international offices in Niger Republic, Burkina Faso and the Benin Republic. Its network spans over 1,500 communities in Nigeria and 214 countries worldwide.
The firm is made up of four divisions and business units specializing in areas such as Express Delivery, Logistics, Freight, Outsourcing services, Supply Chain Management, E-Commerce Facilitation, Printing and Packaging, E-Archiving, as well as Agro Trade Logistics.
