SON moves to Standardise MSME Manufactured Goods

Standards Organization of Nigeria

Share

The Standards Organisation of Nigeria, SON has revealed plans are currently in place by the organisation to standardise products and brands manufactured by Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

At a recent press conference conducted in Lagos prior to World Standards Day, Director-General of SON Mallam Farouk Salim made this statement.

Due to the significant contributions MSMEs made to the economy, Salim emphasized that setting standards for them was an absolute necessity.

He described MSMES as indisputable growth agents.

He said, “SMEs are easily accessible as they operate very close to our homes and offices. The most feasible way to bring their growth to bear on Nigerians is to provide standards for their activities.”

He disclosed that organisation aimed to integrate all sectors of the economy into its programmes.

He added, “There is need to provide effective standards for an estimated 40m SMEs as this will further further assist them in breaking barriers in the face of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement”.

Salim further pointed out that standardising activities of MSMEs would help eliminate discrimination and rejection against made-in-Nigerian goods at the international market.
