I have a Paypal account, and can help you if the funds are legally acquired. |
It actually sounds like a great idea - not just in Nigeria, but anywhere in the world. However, to find out if it is a viable idea, I think it is worth going back to your consumers. Why do people buy beer? Is it because of the taste? If so, will the taste of the powdered version measure up to the sought-after "beer taste"? How do you intend to measure this? Will you have blindfolded customer trial sessions? - Also, what advantages are there in powdered beer, over "normal" beer? I think in this respect, it is good to look at things from a business perspective. Will companies who export beer find this useful in cutting down their costs/carbon footprints? (i.e saving space and exporting much more stock in the same amount of space) - What sort of consumer are you targeting? Travellers? Students? Older beer drinkers? Breweries? How would this idea make their beer-drinking experience better? I really think it's a good idea, especially from a business standpoint. However, if yor average beer consumer feels that the taste is inferior to their "regular", then your demand is out of the window. That is unless you have a niche market that this product appeals to particularly. |
I think it would help potential business partners to know what sort of buses exactly you are looking for. Are you after nine-seater buses? Coaster buses? Molues? Also, what are the buses to be used for? Are they to be in use 3 hours a day, or the whole day? Certain days a week, or everyday? |
I can sell you 10ml of red, highly flammable liquid for N1m only. I'm not too greedy - just N1m will do it for me. afolabi91: |
@ Wallie. Thanks for the heads up! I'm actually a radiographer but I have a keen interest in technology for development. I know that I'm not the only one, and there are so many ideas out there that are stifled for lack of knowledge, and lack of funding. I agree with you, and okaycee on our overdue need for patent reforms. I believe that well-publicized patent reforms, with an involvement in our schools and Universities could potentially change the nature of the game in Nigeria, and massively encourage innovation in Nigeria. Do you know if it is possible to apply for a valid patent in a country where conditions are more favourable than in Nigeria? |
It depends on what the unbeliever does not believe in. If he/she does not believe in God, but tries to pray to God, then they are not really an unbeliever. If they do not believe in Jesus' death and resurrection on the cross, but are praying to God to help them believe, then I don't see any reason why God won't answer that prayer. |
That's a great product (Candle that burns for 7 hours). However, are there any safety measures in place to prevent fires from starting (seeing that you're targeting students who have a tendency to stay up late to study when there's no electricity). |
15 left. I'm looking to sell all in one go. |
Some TV smartphones have become available, which I don't have time to sell individually so I'd like to clear them all.

I was unaware you needed a license to rent videos in Nigeria? |
Good for her. Personally, I feel that most prisoners are in their situations because of choices they have made. How about fighting for the plight of those who don't even have the power to make a choice in the first place? But then again, a cause is a cause - better to stand up for something, than to remain indifferent. |
triaophant:Don't worry traio, I did not take offence at your pricing, and I didn't in turn expect you to take offence at my response to your request. My apologies if you feel insulted by me asking you to supply me if you had any at that price. I have sent you an e-mail. |
A trendchecker for Twitter. Something that can identify similar hashtags and mentions, and group them according to their locations/originating ip addresses. Something like an Alexa.com, but for Twitter. This has potential to even be used as a news tool. One can search for tweets originating from a certain area, and piece a story together. |
Hi traio, Put it this way - If you could supply original designer perfumes at N2,000 each, I would buy them from you. At these prices, all you would get are copies/fakes (unless that's what you want to buy). @ayosomething - I sent you an e-mail. |
I don't know where in the US you are, but the impression I get is that transportation is an issue, thus most people should own a car. How about starting up a taxi business? In the current economic climate, I'm sure there are a lot of people who own cars, but who have no jobs. Could you start up a taxi company signing up cabbies ( also checking what the legal requirements are, and helping your potential cabbies fulfill them). Potential cabbies pay a monthly registration fee to you, and you as an office/company can find them work. They are self-employed, so they sort out their own taxes - no tax headache on your part outside your own income. Your company fixes prices on destinations and take a percentage of all their income. Your booking office books their journeys for them, so there is no 'ojoro' there. All you need is a well-lit office near a train station (where you are sure trains run at night) = Customers Galore! |
I guess it depends on what exactly you are looking to outsource. It's common knowledge that for anything IT based, India is the place to go. For anything that requires manufacturing manpower, China is the place to go. Generally, there is always someone, somewhere who is available to do that thing which you need done - the question is how do you get that available person? If you're in Nigeria, I think the freelance section of might be of some help to you, or even Nairalist/Nairaland's job sections. |
@ frosbel. I agree with you 100%, but aren't we missing the whole point here? It's not about the action - afterall, many people give first fruits because they want their pastors to look at them as "big-man-who-is-also-righteous" |
rabs: Phone :- Blackberry Price :- N22K Advert :- https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-586732.0.html @inze :- I eagerly await my commission |
I think you might the missing the point here. We are Christians (followers of Christs teachings), not 1st century Jews. I think I understand the point you are trying to make though, but at the end of the day, what does Christ teach about giving? These instructions were for the Arameans who were taken into capitivity in Egypt, and subsequently rescued by God and led to what we know as Israel. These people were not christians, as Jesus Christ had not yet come in their time. Thus, they were under a different covenant to us, hence the way they worshipped God with their wealth would differ from the way we do the same. For example, the way a man in the city would have communicated with his fiancee in the village in 1959 (i.e message, letters) would be different from the way he would do the same thing today - simply because communication has improved since 1959. I think Luke summarises Jesus' teachings on money quite well - Luke 16:10“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. 11 So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? Let us not put new wine in old wine skins. |
You're very welcome, Suhaibu. That's also a good idea as well, but you have to remember that there is a lot of competition in this area (as there are less restrictions). It's likely, and probably easier for whatever you're selling to be sent to Lagos first, so it would be a good idea to get someone in Lagos or a company that can handle your logistics properly. Where are you located? I think that the most important thing to do before you import anything is to make sure that you have customers waiting on the ground first. Many make the mistake of importing what they think will sell first, and then they are tied down with the goods. Find out what people are hungry to get and what people need. For example, you can go to supermarkets, shops and see what their customers always ask for and which they don't stock. Look through the "Wanted Ads" on Nairaland and see what people want. Speak to businesses, as they are likely to return your money in bulk if yu don't have the resources to sell your goods individually for more profit. |

Hi Shuaibu, I think that you will find Item 11 on the Import Prohibition list very useful. See : http://www.customs.gov.ng/ProhibitionList/import.php Also, as with every business, you have to establish that there is demand for the drugs you are importing which fall outside the list. The medicines you are thinking of importing might already be in the country - and even cost cheaper. If they are not already in the country, why is this? Is there demand for them, or are there better, local alternatives? You don't want to end up with goods you *though* will move, but in reality are useless. Also, not need to think about getting NAFDAC certification before you do anything because any drug you attempt to sell without NAFDAC certification is deemed illegal, even before you open your mouth. It might be worth looking at NAFDAC's list of blacklisted companies also as many of them are Indian pharmaceutical companies : http://www.nafdacnigeria.org/blacklisted.html Here are instructions on how to get NAFDAC certification for your drugs : http://www.nafdacnigeria.org/drugs.html All the best |
Hiya, I can give you one free ad slot in the next edition of The Canary paper, which is distributed throughout Lagos for free, through newspaper vendors. Feel free to contact me if you want to take this offer up. |
Ok, so what price did you have in mind? I think that pricing designer perfumes at N3,300 each is reasonable as you will not sell anything in that package below cost price. Also, there are gift sets included which you can make a significant amount of money from (Take the CK Obsession gift set and the Thierry Mugler giftset for instance). These two retailed for £40 each here at the time of listing. |
Hi traiophant, Sorry but these sets have been long sold. (They were listed last April). However, I can get you similar sets if you're still interested. 3 sets would contain about 60 fragrances or thereabouts and I can offer these at N200,000 - delivery to Lagos included in the price. As you can see in my previous adverts that these aren't low-end or fake fragrances. They will include designer scents from names like Police, Calvin Klein, Davidoff, Kenneth Cole, Nino Cerutti, Elizabeth Arden and more. Please send me an e-mail at asterix8701@hotmail.com so that we can work something out. |
Why so much alcohol in the "coven"? Who drinks it all? |
