Nice list. Goes to show that money can be made anywhere. Business minded folks are not tribalists nor timid that believe that their home is the best or nothing. Seems the Indians are learning from the Chinese.

Home is not where you are from, but rather where you find Happiness and make Money.


Making Money is a Profession. Once again, OP, nice one and kudos to Mfon at Forbes

What an educative trend. this can provoke d youths to rise up 2 challenges. I love Strive Masiyiwa, he inspires me so much especially with God's Word.

Thanks my Dear! It does show that fortunes can be made at home or abroad. Most of these Indian guys were born in Africa though.
I noticed that they all mostly manufacture and distribute food stuffs. Goes to show that agric is the way to go and anybody can start small when it comes to agriculture business. Next is production and manufacturing of raw goods, followed by distribution of the goods. So much money to be made is this world.

Very good analysis, OP. Good legacies...what will our generation be known for?..greater things of course!..

In addition, most of the big firms we have these days thrived and struggled for years till date making strong footprints in the sands of time..KPMG, Unilever, Akintola Williams, Guiness,Microsoft, from one transformation to another, many failed attempts but at the end, it will be greatness..no b today e start, that's why First Bank will always let you know since 1894.. It takes time to build something great..
