A tailor in a non so productive place...

What other thing can one be involve in to keep shape with the economy (not stopping the tailoring, but running both together)?

A Mobile DJ

A mini truck could change your music love and experience for you. Let say you have a mini bus with speakers and yu could deliver music to music schools or share music in University like an ice cream truck.

At night you pick a field and blast music all night. No need to rent a shop and you couldn't be tired

Natural Oils and Remedy

aloe vera
hemp oil seeds
Coconut oil
Charcoal
Palm Kernel oil
Ash
Sea salt are natural remedies that wouldn't become important in the rising inflation, cost of health care and well being.

Focus on it as your source of income as they're becoming hard to find and procure in our quasi civilized world

Radios

There's a young man in Terminus, Jos whose Father invested in his freedom and determinism by establishing him in a shop filled with radios and in the North, it's a well studied business and placement.

HARNESSING THE METHANE Ii

Just saw a documentary Called the Secret Science of Sewage where the Sewage Works at Minworth UK have managed to turn fecal matter into black gold.

An industry of that magnitude to be replicated in the most populous black country would generate a far greater income. but itt would require the determination of the gods to erect something of that magnitude here

But you could use a bio digester.
Target Estates and Barracks first, like Gowon Estate Egbeda

extract the sewage from their sewers take itr to your site with bio digester and create a sustainable source of cooking gas from the methane and sell ..

Farming Trees

These can be classified under investment, To tie down money, you could buy land and plant and nurture trees eg palm trees, ogbono, cashew and take care of it for 10 years and start harvesting form it's sales and export

A coaching Career

I must talked about this before, it isn't a business but a career path, for now the football coaching school in Surulere, Lagos and Plateau still goes for 300k for the total package,
instead of wasting your time collecting student loan learn football coaching, specialize in women football there's a lot of opportunity there.
Find your way to South Africa, Zambia or even Ethiopia and build your cv with their league before you make that trip to Saudi or America.

It's a dream life, I tell you.

NAAN Bread
So many bakeries in Lagos and other major cities, but they don't produce naan bread, bread sticks, tortillas or baguettes.
Even the malls, I don't think we know how wonderful the naan bread is compared to that heavy and doughy white bread

Mattresses, Tea and Sugar.

Investing heavily in the sale of naked mattress for carpenters who make upholstery, young life starter.

Call In Psychiatry

Like the Securus prison style service of the caller transfer as payment, You could create something of a Call in Psychiatry to help in managing stress, or it could be an app.

then look around in your community and see that many old people need help doing certain jobs like

Tank washing
laundry for the old
Running Errands
Dog Walking
Newspaper and Groceries shopping (those who live in storey buildings)
Endless chores and you would earn both money and Goodwill if you are good and upright in your dealings.

Abacha and Ugba in Packaged Sachet


Sometimes you crave this Eastern delicacy, and find many store theirs in rat infested sacks or don't have any till they travel, with the price of transportation it would take a while.
You abridging that gap could sell this more nutritious flake that could send noodles running.
The price and size of an abacha and ugba combo in a mini pack would give the hungry Nigerian a fighting chance.
all he will need is to heat it up, site fry with palm oil, crayfish, hot pepper and onions. and either dinner or lunch is served.

VODKA

Nothing quite matches the transit and time damage and waste of our farm produce, You get to our landfills and see potatoes, cabbages, Pineapples, carrots and other vegetables left to rot when

Buddhist/ Hinduist Shop

Some other religion exist besides Christianity and we need investment in things that are sorely lacking like Beads, Altars, small ceramic statues, Stupas, The framed images of the Gohozon, Holy books in print, Electric candles, incense and we need someone to really take the Nigerian market serious.
in the entire country I don't think there are up to two If any, We have to resort to framing image ourselves, tally counters as it is hard to replace our spiritual books and items when we lose them.


This is a wonderful business, take us seriously.

Bags Purses and Wallets

The current trend in fabric and Grocery bag, could last for sometime, in this Gen z age or the baggy trouser and fashionable tops,

You could run a catalog office or an institute for Record purpose too

Sometimes from the comfort of your home

Brand
clothing and shoes are somewhat ordinary without the surety of a designet or a brand.
you could be that designer and begin to sell a brand. A well known brand
042 is the brand name of Enugu state it coincides with 0420 the brand of marijuana, Enugu has it's moments..
what brands exist in the world sell on the premise of their names alone Nike Yeezy. Jordan, But these are just shoes and clothes when you look at it
It like the #alte brand in Nigeria that didn't really take off in music

so why not create one

Selling salad Ingredients

The Northerners are masters in the small quantity sale and they make more money on it, The diced carrot, green peas and chopped cabbage in nylon can be done by someone big.

Just pressure boiling and preservatives adding to a sachet type packaging of our carrots, green peas and kidneys in salad ingredients sale and other vegetables can be another way of making money off what is mostly transit damaged waste.
