Madam face your topic and don't be distracted.

Don't also forget to copy more questions and adjust the answers from the original thread.

lol,kpele sho gbo

The third aspect I will be discussing is where and how to source for good bales to sell. one major market for okrika is katangua market located at super bus-stop, abule egba, there u can find different dealers, but you have to be careful not to fall into the wrong hands, as a lot of guys hustle there. Also make sure u don't show that you are a novice/jjc. There will try to take advantage of you. you might want to seek the help of someone who knows the market well to take you around and help you locate the importers.

Am in Abuja please how can i start this business?

the major hurdle in this business is getting a trust worthy supplier, who can give u quality bale, because u don't want to buy a bale full of thrash, once you cross that hurdle u will enjoy the business. The reason for starting with bale is to optimize your profit. if you are ready you can contact me for guarantee quality bales(gradeAAA)you just do your market survey and see what will sell fast in your area, then you go from there. like I said the key is getting a supplier of quality bale, what we call boutique standard. Here is my No's for calls and WhatsApp 08166063458

pls am interested, my email is abigailjoseph250 @gmail.c

To answer the second question of how to sell and get high turn over, one way is calling those who resell to come and pick when you open the bale, whatever bid left u can resell to those around you. another way is the get a small space in markets for clothes, some have market on Mondays , Wednesdays and Fridays, you cab take your clothes there pay for temporary space, sell ur goods and move. The third way which Is similar to the second is selling at major bus stops in your area, If u own a car then it will make it easier for u. just load your Boot and locate busy bus stops around, ask for who is in charge, pay a token and start selling. The busiest times are usually in the evening from 4pm. so u can go to work or if u are a student u can start ur side hustle after lectures. This is the method that I used and it really worked for me. while I worked as a teacher,weekend was my hustling days, I usually go on Friday and Saturday, my husband would drive, and I did the sales. it really helped my family then. I longer count the days in the month waiting for pay day. for this method u go leave shame one side ooo,abi who shame EPP!!!. me too when I started I use to feel shy but when I started taking money home every weekend my morale was boosted.

hello guys, I created this thread to enlighten people on a side/main hustle that is usually over looked, it is selling of okrika, gwonjo, or akube as it is popularly known.
Due to the economic reality in Nigeria at the moment, buying new clothes may be out of reach for many Nigerians so the cheaper option is okrika, the market for this business is huge and inexhaustible so u will always get buyers for your items. Basically I will be discussing important areas of the business.

(1)who are the potential buyers/customers for your goods.
(2)How can I sell my goods quickly and get high turn over
(3) how can I make maximum profit from this business
(4) what are the challenges I am likely to face in this business

OK, so let me answer the first question,like earlier an average home in Nigeria depends on okrika to meet their fashion needs like clothes, shoes, bags, nightwear, hats, caps, e.t.c,.so there is a readily available market. you can decide to specialize in children clothes, or ladies tops, or ladies bags, e.t.c. or u can be like me, I sell whatever it is that I open. so my customers know they can get any of their clothing or accessories from me. it is advisable you start with one particular thing and move from there. As for me I started with children clothes, because this was what was lacking in my area, what even prompted me was that I needed to replace my son's clothes, I checked around and saw that there was no market for clothes around, I stay around Eleko (ibeju/lekki)axis,I had to take 400naira transport to ajah, even the clothes I saw were not of a high grade and so expensive, so I was determined to meet this need, that was how my journey into okrika business started, I discussed with my sister who stays on the mainland and she helped me source for a bale of children clothes. she purchased the bale for 120k ( it was grade AA) bale and sent to my location. I was really happen with her purchase because the clothe were of high quality. That is how I started calling people to come and check o,from neighbors, to church members, to colleagues at work, intact i was the answer to their prayers, I sold all within 2weeks, and made over 200k in sales minus the one that oga borrowed o. I was really happy, the only set back was most people paid my at the end of the month, which I didn't mind. so I have first hand experience and know that there is money in this business.let me stop here for now

You demanded for #EndSars, the FG ended it and proposed SWAT which exists even in your worldly paradise, America. You insist no former SARS will be part of SWAT, the FG agreed . Yet you are still on the rampage setting hardened criminals holes up in correctional facilities free. Abeg wetin you want? I support the FG on the use of lethal force, protests are no licenses for anarchy. Let FG clear them all.

na so bullet go clear you and all your family members, aboki swine

Africonji:
Imagine. This is the anarchy the protesters had planned from the beginning. The government must not give in to them. They were warned ahead of time to vacate the protest sites but rather they chose to be unfortu
nate. Miscreants must not be allowed to hold the rest of the state hostage under the false pretext of a protest.

u are a big fool
