My honest advice for u is ensure that from the beginning u put God first.I have been in this for over 2yrs now but my first experience nearly put me off.My problem start with a incompetent shipper 3rd rated type who did not the measure of a van and could not ascertain avan has a bulk head or not.From the beginning everthing works well,until i met shipper.
1.Make sure you have people u can trust to clear your goods,otherwise u end up paying demurrages and goods will be at the mercy of custom officer.(a)Ensure u know the amount of clearing a goods especially van or trucks otherwise you pay double surcharges.(b)Check price of various engines i.e research well as price of these goods fluctuate on daily basis

2.It is true that the guy who said that u should not attempt to put your goods to Yoruba traders is not being racist or tribal every traders wants to make good profits and goes home happily

3.Trust yourself and whoever that you asked to look for buyer for try as much to check as it is common practice in naija to put their on price on top in all ramification of business.and ready to do underhand to police and custom officers.Wish u all the best in 2012.DON'T FORGET MARKET RESEARCH IS THE ROOT OF ALL BUSINESS even iya alakara do research b4 venturing to business of akara!!!!!!!!
