A friend of mine wants to start steel retail business, where he will be selling
Hbeams
Angle iron
Steel pipes
Flat bar
Sheets etc.
We tried meeting some of the dealers in our area to make inquiries but once they sence you want to start the business they will start hoarding information. Especially info on where they source thier products from.
My friend is almost getting frustrated and I told him that the information we seek can be gotten free on nairaland.
Please if you know any information that can be helpful please contribute.

P. S-I have attached a picture of the business for ease of explanation.
