Opportunities in the Lagos Ketu Market

The first thing we’ll be talking about in this article is the production and marketing of plantain chips. Plantain chips is made from fried plantain and packaged in nylon bags and sold to willing buyers. To school leaver, this does not involve too much capital, what it demands is your commitment and resourcefulness.

This is a form of snack consumed by travelers at all motor parks in Nigeria, it is also eaten be students. For any sincere school leaver, the best market is students in session; they do not buy on credit, neither do they owe you. I suggest this may be sold along with any fruit in season. If you live in Lagos, fruits are available at the Ketu market very close to the old toll gate on the Lagos/Ibadan entrance into Lagos, and not very far inside. It is at that bend near the toll gate.

While talking about the Ketu market, let me share some discoveries that I made during the week about that market. Some smart young men and ladies have trained themselves in art of selling everything that is brought into Lagos. As soon as the truck arrives, they take it over from the owner who tells them how much he wants for the truck or trailer load. These young men and ladies sell everything every day, pay the owner and share the proceeds which are always good and I mean good. They will take you on, train you and you do not need a kobo as capital. These are ingenious and legitimate ways that hardworking people of your stock are starting out now with.

The shocker is that several of them are graduates who have solid and continues investment in the capital market. They are building their future and don’t be surprised if they own the biggest hotels in Nigeria in the future.
