I was privy to run an NGO project in a slum situated in Makoko Lagos. The area is so under-developed and the poverty level is high. However, they still manage to live.

Sequel to this, i noticed that they engage alot with agric products and fishing. The women usually buy grains (corn, cassava, millet, beans) and also pepperin large quantities, get them grinded and use for local consumption. The opportunity here is that, a few of the locals actually engage in this business managing small sized machines but they are unable to promptly attend to the huge demand. I noticed the need to be able to "quickly" meet the demand for this service, so my intent is to procure larger sized machines and open a large capacity site to attend to this need.

I just seek advice from anyone with prior knowledge or experience of this business.

I will truly appreciate.
