To Sum It Up
Just as the export business in Nigeria holds huge potentials for any entrepreneur that chooses to venture into it, the import business also holds amazing benefits for local entrepreneurs, due to the high level of the demand and supply for most types of imported products.
By choosing to import items with a large market demand, you can quickly build a large supply chain, sign long-term supply contracts, grow a profitable business, and in the process, contribute to the reduction of the unemployment rate in the country.
