Will You Open A Business In Nigeria While You Live Abroad? by alabiyemmy(m): 4:55am On Dec 28, 2006
Most of us have surmounted the fears and hurdles of opening businesses in Nigeria while we live outside Nigeria. For the sake of those who might be thinking of doing so, can we share ideas and experiences so that others may learn from some or those of us who have had the opportunity of doing this?

So, do you have/run a business in Nigeria while you are not necessarily resident in Nigeria? Are you planning to do the same? Have you had a bad experience doing so, please share, so that others will learn from either negative or positive experience like such.

Tried it. Didn't work. It's very hard to do unless you find someone who shares your vision for the business, has excellent management skills AND is very honest.

I put my brother to head mine - I also have workers, but made sure brother doesnt have access to cash, all payments goes thruogh the secretary who then takes money to bank. Made sure brother cant cllude with secretary or other workers, in short he doesnt have access to money paid by clients. So, it could still work.

I think it is by all means possible and even very rewarding too! If you have the right people (honest and hardworking) then the sky is your limit. I wouldn't advise to you listen to most of the discouraging stories above as your business model and techniques could differ from theirs. And so could the results.

@ naijacutee

Thanks very much - your contribution is solid - the success depends very much on the business model and techniques - doesnt mean all businesses will have the tendency to fail.

Very simple. make an advert for Business Manager Needed. The person must come with two to three sureties and must be civil servant, take them to your lawyer for interview and the person sign management deal. Trust me if he's not genuine he will run.

Depends on the business you are doing. If it is Online you can be in anywhere and still be running it in Nigeria.
The best business anyone can do in Nigeria from outside the country is Logistic.

If you lives in China, US or anywhere that Nigerian usually buy goods from. If you start International Logistic business it will be profitable like kilode. Best do it with procurement.

I have alot of guys who import everyday from China US and I knew many people are rushing into this business every day.
You can see you have audience

Good morning folks,

I do hope everyone around the world is staying safe. We will all come out stronger and better.
I wouldn't want to bore you with stories, so I will just cut to the chase.
This piece is targeted at Nigerians living abroad. I know there have been stories of folks sending money home for projects to be done and in the long run, nothing was actually done. Reason being that the funds had been squandered, and similar experiences etcetera.

I am here to tell you to have no fear anymore.
If you want to embark of any kind of project back in Nigeria ( building, buying and selling of products, exporting staples abroad) and you need a reliable and trustworthy individual. I AM YOUR GOTO Guy.

I can be reached on phone and via WhatsApp on 08027569011.
N:B: any information you need as regarding authenticity, validity and guarantee. I can provide and will be ready to sign documents.

Thank you and God bless.

Poju
