The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) has operationally launched the Afreximbank TRADAR Club – a member-driven network aimed at empowering international businesses and executives to transform trade and investments in Africa through trusted trade intelligence and advisory services.

According to Afreximbank, TRADAR Club will deliver innovative digital tools and networking opportunities, helping members to discover new markets, grow their business, save time, access dedicated expert support, post and respond to new business opportunities, network and meet business/trading partners.

TRADAR Club is anchored by Afreximbank’s Trade Intelligence Solutions Unit, which was conceived to address one of the key barriers to intra-African trade – the lack of comprehensive African trade and investment information.

Afreximbank describes TRADAR Club as the primary gateway through which exporters, importers and investors will access curated trade intelligence and advisory services to support their market expansion decisions and network with other businesses.

Afreximbank’s Trade Intelligence Solutions is an end-to-end, integrated trade intelligence offering, supporting clients that are seeking to enter new markets in Africa or expanding into the continent.

TRADAR Club, and the Trade Intelligence Solutions it champions, represent the single authoritative resource and forum for trade and investment related insight in Africa.

TRADAR Club membership is open to global industry leaders, African and foreign businesses, intergovernmental organisations, policy makers and other influential stakeholders committed to the shared objective of unlocking growth and development in Africa.

The club offers four membership packages, including a free basic membership. The standard, gold and platinum membership packages, however, attract yearly membership fees.
