[quote author=abhi.r]I am looking forward to come and settle in an Africa country and develop Import business.
I want to import Used Clothes, Used Electronics (TV/Refrigerators), Bicycles, Bicycle parts, Packed Food, New Garments, Machinery Parts, Nuts & Bolts, and any other items in bulk for sales.

I am looking forward for advice from you people. Which country is strategically best place to start with and Why?
I look forward for 3 options..
Ghana
Nigeria
Tanzania
if there are any other country you guys would like to suggest then please do so.[/quote]come to Nigeria b/c the importers have bastadized the market with new substandard product.So your items of quality standard will get the market attension.
Example: i bought new phillip brand pressing iron and used it once.Is bad now.

Business › Re: Pure Water Ban By Fg- New Ideas For Manufacturers by kabarka(m): 9:11am On Nov 06, 2013*

Your idea is good and understandable but at what cost?
Can the common man afford it?
Remember your statement[quote author=pro_selector]I

remember, satchet water that bacame a multi million naira business was born out of neccesity.[/quote]what occasioned those necessities?
Has those factors been put in place?
Pure water biz was NECESSITATED by gross dilapidation of
(1)public infrastructure and (2)increasing water borne dieases.

interestingly
(2) has been checked by pure water.
(1)need strong political will to be provided and maintained.Infrastructure like power,waterworks,piping connections round the cities.

zukky79: Hey Kbarka! Pls send to my email too: smslove101@gmail.com

Done

zukky79: I would like you to explain this driver commission concept.

if you have read from the begining,you would have come across commission issues.
Personally speaking,i think lagos state has standard commission,however they will speak for themselves.

Now in addition to what i said before,factories with large customer base pay #3 to driver,#1.50 to motor boy.
Another pay #15,000 basic salary then account @#60
But commission that is gaining ground now is TAKE WATER @#50 CATER FOR ALL EXPENSES.

zukky79: Also, my friend who has a factory says he has upto 100 sachets as leakage for every good 300 sachets...what could be d reason and how can he stop it.

Your friend is wasting his hard earned money and risking his investment.
B/w pages 30-32 we have treated this issue.Tell him to check vertical and horizontal sealing surface.Obviously he has no good operator.Sometimes it could be from material.

zukky79: And regarding the Ford bus, wuld the diesel bus be gud or better/worse than the fuel bus?

To the best of my knowledge,ford diesel mechanics are not available but petrol mechanics are much more available.So go for petrol.
Cheers

stegra: Nduwin,
I still await your call.
Kabarka, Could i have asked a silly question?/ you are not responding or should i rephrase it?

Your question is neither silly nor out of order instead INTELLIGENT.It's just that i have been away from the net.
For me,if you are to rephrase your question,it should look like this:- what is my cost of production per bag at the moment(over a particular period)

The soln or formular of equation you are asking me is :
(COST OF RAW MATERIAL(NYLON) + EXPENSES INCURRED)/Average bags produced perhaps per month.

mathematically,
let's represent cost of raw material with Cn
Expense incurred as E
Average bags as Av
Cost of production per bag as Cp
therefore,
Cp = (Cn + E)/Av
look at this equation very well.

INTERPRETATIONS
1,Cp ¤ Cn+ E,meaning Cp is directly proportional to Cn and E.
2, Cp ¤ 1/Av meaning Cp is inversely proportional to Av

INTERPRETATIONS (layman)
1, Cp increases as Cn and E increases
2,Cp decreases as Av increases

Finally it is your job as owner and responsibility of management to manipulate Cn,E and Av to increase or decrease Cp

you cant generalise those expenses.
Yes there are repairs and mtce but it depends on grade of vehicle and how careful ur drivers are.

ok,so this is the meaning of "THIS COURT HAS NO JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER"

stegra: 1. We cannot belittle ourselves for we know our water is of good quality
2 We are sure time will vindicate us

This condition is NOT Negotiable.At this time of the industry,stressing QUALITY is OVER-EMPHASIS.It is the basic thing to do.
And dont wait for people to clap for you for achieving quality.If you compromise quality,there numerous product that can take your position.
Instead be deeply interested in strategies to be adopted to make more sales in the shortest possible time.

stegra: 3. I am having a hard timeinvestigating the true cost of a a bag of water here in Abuja

Talk about your own cost because operational costs differ from factory to factory.Example using Phcn in place of generator lowers your cost.

stegra: Now is there a way those in Abuja can respond to this?

I am happy that Nduwin operating from the same location as you has responded.Do not operate in isolation,attend ATWAP meeting to know what is obtainable now.OBVIOUSLY,YOU ARE BEING SHORTCHANGED BY YOUR WORKERs AND I WILL SHOW YOU HOW IN NEXT PARAGRAPH.

stegra: I am not comfortable my drivers ding account for
55/3000
110/5000
and retailed at 60 or 70
what should i pls do kabarka?

This price is POOR, at the same time may not be that bad depending on situation(operating cost due to proximity).
Let me explain,
Understand this two scenario
a, A vehicle with capacity 220 bags that takes 15liter of petrol to sell around and

b,A similar vehicle with same capacity that takes 5liter of petrol to drop the product to a customer, are NOT THE SAME TRANSACTION.
Now your workers must have shortchanged in two ways:-

1,They must have sold higher and claimed to have sold lower.

2,Nobody may have bought bulk,they simply merged the bags and collected the money.

The EFFECT
The excess money you need for maintenance is being diverted and If you continue to operate like this they will run you down for this is a typical ''Monkey dey work baboo dey chop''.They will wretch the vehicle and there will be no money to repair it.

WHAT YOU MUST DO
It is unfortunate and obvious you have not read the ebook ''Pure Water Biz Demystified'' for then you would have stopped this mess from the begining.Get a copy :www.waterbusinessdemystified..com
However take the following actions
1,Identify the customers they claim buy bulk.Tell the customers to call you or a designated number each time they want to buy.
2,Before you decide to sell at that low rate you must consider the proximity(nearness) and rate of purchase(turnover).
Take these points
a, 110bags @5000 at close proximity for 3days is not bad but for a far place is bad biz.
b, 110bags @5000 for 1month is bad biz.

As you start making changes,Dont forget to feed us on any surprises you must stumble into.We are waiting.

wola44: At Kabarka, Madam L & Other

Question Pls,

1. What is the cost of tokunbo FORD BUS ?
2. How many bags of pure water can a ford bus carry at once ?
3. Is 2 rooms & big open space outside the room for tank space okay to start pure water business ?
4. How much is the average cost of pure water nylon ? and how many bags it can produce ?

Thanks

1, tokunbo ford perhaps in the neighbourhood of #750k.

2, lets say 240bags depending on nature of road.

3,You need
a,Production room
b,Storage material room
c,finished product room
d,cloak room
e,office apartment

4,For me this question sounds VAGUE so allow me to rephrase your question this way :
How much is average cost of pure water nylon per kg? and how many bags of pure water will that 1kg produce?

Pure water nylon cost b/w
#420 and #500 now to the best of my knowledge.The gap is
the reason why many companies operate at different profit margin.

Now as to how many bags/kg.
Some will give you 18,19,20,22,23,25 etc
some even claim to give what they cant.BUT IT IS YOUR ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY TO DISCOVER YOUR YIELD.Find out how to do this in ''Pure water business demystified''

oghenefega: HI GUYS! FINALLY A GENUINE BUSINESS IN NIGERIA, I HAVE BEEN PAID, FOR REAL AND AM HAPPY TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU http://www.?r=oghenefega

@oghenefega
Thanks for bring this opportunity to our notice.
This capable of generating start-up capital for enterprenurs if it is devoid of NIGERIAN FACTOR.

Sometime ago in the nineties i plugged into Dollar replica of this program with $25 bill.Then I sent $5 each to 3 persons in usa,1 in Austria and 1 in germany in exchange for REPORTS.I was to strike out name of report 1 sender,adjust and put mine as No 5,then advertise to the world.

But the program was banned in Europe b/c it looked like money laundering.You know so many $5 bill in envelope going to an address.

But since this Nigerian version has to do with bank,it is very SAFE.I encourage people participate.
