    Did you know...

    • Niger is a landlocked country in West Africa, which means it lacks direct access to the sea. This makes sea-based shipping reliant on neighbouring ports, particularly in countries like Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, where goods are transported via road to Niger.
    • Niger’s primary airport for air cargo is Diori Hamani International Airport in Niamey. This airport handles both passenger and cargo flights, playing a crucial role in the movement of high-value and time-sensitive goods.
    • Niger’s road infrastructure is often under strain, with parts affected by seasonal flooding and wear, impacting the speed and reliability of shipping.
