Hi, who can give me nice business ideas? What items can one purchase from the US to sell in Naija? I am considering ladies clothes, but do not really have any market for it. I might have about 50, 000 naira to start.

Thanks,

i think auto mobile only. other things all buy from china.you have small money. so your customers r also not rich.

what about a bridal store ? No need to hav many dresses , order first and you can get dress from buyer100.com for wholesale .

Haha my parents did that a little with limited success. The market is well and trully saturated now.
@Op you really don't have enough capital to do anything serious yet, I suggest getting a bank loan. Perhaps import electronics?

When you say electronics,what kinds?Please be specific.

sorry, what i mean its, business is something about links and trust. you catch customers from you friends. so its good to import some cheap goods at first. its goes fast.

happy to talk to you./

study your local market and make up your mind , Bro you need more than 50k

Fifty k for importation business will be a bit hard. Why not start with something homebased and you can grow from there

@op.kindly take this point please

There are lots of products you can imports depend on your capital but you need adequate information before embarking on the business only if you really want to make it big.

I bet you,importation business is very lucrative.

r u a muslim? i can see muslim scarf goes well. in kano.

computer business is the best to import from usa and make good gains.
i have done it once with someone who thought me import skills only that i don't have capital if not i could have continue because there is real gain in it.

Sorry, I disagree with the last poster. If U buy computer or computer parts from the USA to sell in nija, u will surely lose ur money. I used to be in it. Infact, there is hardly any product u can buy from th usa and make money in Nigeria. If you want to import, all roads lead to China.

Thanks to everyone.I'll be considering your ideas. The computer sone looks like something one can start with minimal funds
