Importing Used Cars From Europe To Nigeria, Is It A Good Business? by john1552: 3:46pm On May 31, 2013
Hi all readers,

I wanted to inquire about the used car market in Nigeria currently. Are people still interested in buying used cars from Europe?

Could this be a profitable business for Nigerian located in Europe?


Looking for some general information on the subject as well.

Regards

Yes. I am not a car dealer but you can be sure to get buyers for cars (and indeed all kinds of vehicles) provided your prices are competitive.

You must also put a system in place on how buyers can pay and collect their vehicles in Nigeria.

Goodluck.

Lins01: Yes, it is nice business.
yeah it is,as in all business you need a lot of foresight,passion and hardwork to make it work.as you know it is a large market now in nigeria so you have to step your game to be ahead of others,you must be willing to go the extra mile in satisfying your customers,and always stick to realistic terms with your customers,there is nothing as as bad as a disappointed customer,for example you only give time span when a car has sailed with ship,never,i repeat never before the ship has sailed.
And for shipping to lagos ports,grimadi lines remains the best and one thing always make sure the cars you bring to a customer is clean,i never joke with that,nigerians love clean rides

Automobile business is a very lucrative business in nigeria,but have it in mind that you must be patient because the business can can be funny atimes.but firstly,not all vehicles are acceptable in nigeria.toyota,honda,nissan nd volswagen are moving market.another thing you need to consider is price,when your price are too high their going to be a problem.let me give you one analysis,if a landing cost of a clean 1998 toyota camry is around 700k,expect that your profit might be between 100k to 150k.
Mail me at adedoying@ymail.com for more explanation and details and as a first timer don't venture into a right hand drive cars for now
