No be about lucrative. But building materials and Cosmetics business are booming.


1. Can you deal with the risk, stress and other factors? .
2. Knowing the head and the tail about a particular business.
3. Consumer's mind are the main target .



The last is Location. Location matters in doing a business.

Definitely cosmetics, there is a reason why Nigeria is rated the number 1 skin toner nation in Africa.

We love to bleach skin in Naija.

If you want to be in control of your mind , do not venture into a business you don't know anything about . That 8m you are bragging about can suddenly become your nightmare. A word is enough for the wise

This topic is not for those ill-bred tribalistic idiots who’re still living with their misinformed parents but come online to engage in tribal bashings ….. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
In their mind they would be wondering how a 25yrs old got 8milli to start business πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
As you idiots are on politics section engaging in post election ethnic hatred & bashings , your mates out there are building their lives.πŸ˜‚

@OP - depends on what you have knowledge and passion for, cosmetics will boom fast but building material needs time and connections to boom. Follow your heart. May God guide and bless your path..

You can't compare them. There's no much profit in cosmetics. Building materials are more profitable. Remember cosmetics expires.

Re: Cosmetics Or Building Materials, Which Is More Lucrative?? by Jewessgratitud3: 10:38am On Jan 03
Go for cosmetics because it can sell anywhere but building materials is kinda seasonal and you need the right location easily accessible to customers.

Women, men, and children use cosmetics every now and then so it's a fast selling business if you know what kind of products move or are more in demand. Maybe you might want to do your research on this so you know what to stock up on.

Where do you reside?
Your location will determine how far I can assist or guide you.

Answer my question sharp sharp.
One of those businesses you listed is part of my business portfolio and helping or lifting people is one of my focus this year.

If you say building materials, please can you be specific? Which areas of build materials do you want to deal with, Tiles, plumbing, cement, roofing sheets, nails, wood, etc. There is money in building materials it's more lucrative than cosmetic but not a daily business like that of cosmetic.

Don't just start a business without you knowing its rudiments. Learn the business first from someone into it then decide whether to go into it or not.

Oga, say what you know.

Both are good and have money in them depending on how much you are transacting with but location, discipline, focus and perseverance/endurance are what matters.

Are you really ready to do business? Because you shouldn't bring it here, cos people who don't have any ideas of the businesses you are talking about will misinform you.

Let me just tell you one thing for free. If you decide to go into sales of building materials, just know that you have to be very spiritual. Either you follow God or you go dey do jazz (evian)

One of the most dangerous business to do in nigeria nah building materials business because almost all of the major guys belong to an occultic group and if you decide not to join them, them go frustrate your life

Location is of utmost importance. Imagine your business around student area, cosmetic would yield good income with that 8m startup capital.

Register your business with CAC first and secure your brand name. Very important
