If you buy at that rate and bring it to Lagos , am sure you will not get a buyer unless you are ready to make a loss.

How big is the yam that would make someone to buy a tuber for #900 ?

Hi Enilive,

I will advice you make research in mile13 market yourself to ascertain price yourself. Some Yams go as high as #54k to land Lagos and they are been sold.

When am up to that section will treat that. Also when I go home I will cross check my books to reconfirm prices.

I am so glad you started this thread. This is a business I was planning on doing, just trying to source funds. However from the research I have so far made, I think your prices are a bit on the high side. In mile 12 as at last week a kwarai of yam cost about 26k and if the tubers are big btw 28-30k. That is the price at mile 12 . I also kbow that you can source for yam also from south western states like Ondo and Ekiti where they have large concentration of Igbira people. In those places you can get the yam for 10-12k per kwarai. If you add transport and all other expenses you get it to your destination for 15k.

in my state is not even up to 10k for kwaria (nasarawa state) but now is not the best time for yam business...for good output i suggest one start during the season then storage it and resell when during the off peak season

This is very correct. I was at mile12 market on Saturday, 2nd of May 2015. A Kwarai was around 22k. Was also told this is not the best time to go into yam biz. I travelled from Ilorin to Lagos to make my findings.

depend on the size and ur technique of buying it....but in niger,yam of 12k will be a good bargain,it will command a good price in a place like lagos,if ur yam is too small,it might pose a problem to sell.
If u ve means of buying....serikin pawa,kuta,qwada re good places to buy yam in niger!
