Can clothing and shoes still be ordered from other countries into Nigeria, despite the Ban on certain products?
How much do you guys think the rent annually will be for a Store in a highend areas like Ikoyi and VI.

Thank you

@pepsi2

With all due respects but what a funny question
You of course can import whatever you like just be prepared to bribe every man and his dog at the port

naijacutee:

I see the people who banned the clothes wearing imported laces and shoes so why not?

ah why now?
You wan follow connected ppl? na kirikiri you go end

The motive behind banning textiles importation is a good one ,but a situation where the government have not provided power for the textile factories to operate , how can the ban be sensible ? there are other issues like this that make the ban look stupid , you have to create an enabling environment , then the ban would make sense ,but with the current power situation and infrastructures, it makes no sense .

@ Obamedo, lol I am a foreigner trying to relocate by the end of the year, so these are questions I need answers to. Egoldman and the rest you guys are right, if the means are not there to back the purpose of the Ban then what happens? It loses its ground. Thx guys, even if there is not a Ban you have to pribe at port of entry for your goods. lol

very true, but for banned goods you will just have to pay more
every man and his dog in Nigeria have their price, including the president

Ofcourse people are still importing clothing.How do u think pple like Wranglers and other clothing outfits get their stuff in?U can import if and when u wanto,just make good ur enquiries.most importing is done nowadays from asia sha.i think d ban applies on fabric and not on finished clothing.

@ Pepsi 2

I am into clothing business, if you need any supply pls mail me at glasiko2005@yahoo.com.

@ Babycool and SOJ Thanks, I see about the fabric.

Babycool, where are you and where are u inporting clothes from? How is selling clothes wholesale to the local market like in Lagos?

@ Globalaid, thx. I am not in Nigeria now, but will hold on to your phone num, better yet pls send you email as well. I am interested in selling wholesale but need to know how well it is likely to d in Nigeria.
How well would you say selling clothes and shoes wholesale in Nigeria to the local market will do?

@pepsis2, one thing you have to know about the business is that you have to get your supply from where it is cheap and a quality goods, with that you will be able to enter the market because nigerian people want good products at a less price. my e mail address is jamesfidodo@yahoo.com

once i get your mail i will give you my telephone number in China in order to make our communication easy.

Good afternoon all,

I was thinking of starting a small business, but i need to know what is the procedure to import clothes from France to Nigeria? I just want to sell small quantity, not doing a big business, so can I just order clothes from France using DHL? Or is there other ways, less expensive et safe to get clothes from France in Lagos??
Thank you very much

They banned textile imports that great news. but where are all the fake chinese 'gucci" or w/e shirts comming from?
