TrucksPoint to train 1000 Youth in Agricultural Value Chain

TrucksPoint Logistics will be training over 1,000 Nigerian youths on agricultural value chain ranging from product sales, logistic, and supply to end users, as part of activities marking the 20th anniversary of Datapoint Microsystem, its parent company.

Mr. Lucky Uduikhue, managing director, Datapoint Microsystems, said the training would be offered both online and physical and will cut-across the whole country.

“As part of the training, we are coming up with a mobile App which is going to be used to allocate and trace farm produce from rural areas to urban cities. This will be made possible through the youths we have trained and with the support of our Truckspoint logistic network which will be used to transport the agricultural produce from rural to urban cities.

“The mobile App will assist accredited participants in the value chain in subscribing to our services from the comfort of their homes,” he said.

Truckspoint is an online marketplace where Business Owners and the Transporters can work together in a transparent and mutually beneficial environment.

It is a place where people can request trucks based on size, timing and need of their shipments.

Uduikhue added that Datapoint is going to employ the 1,000 youths upon their graduation with its subsidiary Truckspoint.

He also announced the launch of Xpresspoint, an ecommerce and retail shops initiative that will be dealing on consumer goods.

“Xpresspoint is an online shopping and retailer, with a strong customer base across different states in the country. We are specialized in Mobile Phones, Computers, Gadgets, Consumer Electronics, Industrial Equipment, Fashion, Beauty, Appliances, and many more.
