[quote author=jookunlaja post=102551508]Hallo business minded student. Thank God you are not tying yourself to anyone's apron for daily survival. And mind you, Entrepreneurship is the gateway to accessing wealth in Nig today especially from the citadel of learning.
My opinion is. First of all, make a good survey of your school environment and observe the kind of businesses that are thriving there. Do take your time to check properly. Study the business environment and tabulate the pros and cons of each business opportunity you see.
I won't subscribe to a laundry business if you don't have a washing machine. I also won't subscribe to recharge card business because the turnover is so so insignificant. Don't also border yourself with lottery or gamble as some guys are telling you.
However, in a typical undergraduate school environment some businesses are of high patronage and demand like:
1. Provisions and fast food-- sharwama is only good in schools in towns, not schools located in the interior corners of some villages. Provisions like milk, sugar, cornflakes, custard, Noddles, groundnut oil, beverages, sachet tomatoes, sachet milk etc. You can also add body and skin care products like creams, toothpaste, bathing and washing soaps etc
2. Typing and photocopying could also be considered if you have cash. A normal laptop with 3 or 4 in one printer can do the magic of photocopy and printing for you. You can employ a secondary school leaver to stay in the shop whenever you go lectures.
3. Ladies and men wears, either new or second hand clothes also good in students' environment. Added with underwears like panties , pillow case , bedsheet, singlets etc.
4. Shoes, canvass, ladies slippers and bathroom slippers with leather slippers can also be considered if you have a good place to buy from.
5. Foodstuffs is good if you don't have thick competitors or market around except you are ready to sell at a very little margin in order to beat competitors down. Okay for now.
Watch out for part 2[/quo

tahyorfrosh:
Students like food. Everybody must eat something.
You don't need to get a shop or anything too for a pastries business.

10 years ago I was in a similar position in school. What I did to help myself was to make chin chin in bulk on weekends and sell during class. All those long hours of lectures, my colleagues knew me as their snack plug. I made 5k daily from selling chin chin and it didn't affect my school because I make them and bag them on weekends. It was even cheap, #50 each and it always sold out.

I started with one paint of flour and 5 liters of oil, that was what paid for my tuition throughout the university and my project. When I realized that the business was good after my undergraduates, I expanded to making egg rolls and doughnuts in addition to chin chin, it was a good business. I further expanded to Ghana puff puff and employed over 20 sellers until Nigeria happened.

So find a business that makes you happy and something that most students can't do without and make your money from it.

May God bless your hustle.

Please dash me that 20k or buy goods worth 20k. Thank you

You females nor know pass dash me dash me dash dash me in ur lifes

optm:
Anything that has to do with eating would always sell and being in a student environment is strategic already as students are always hungry and most times may not have the time to prepare food or too lazy to do that. A quick snacking outfit wouldn't be a bad idea or you could take your stuffs along with you to lecture halls

Yes o, food sells with students. He can even test with part of the money, maybe spend 5k on something small first and see how your colleagues and other students will react to the idea. But first, survey and find their go-to snack first.

Start roasting corn

The money is too small to start up a tangible business.

Kikikiki.... .... Nigeria happened.....that got me

I'm telling you, Nigeria will definitely make business tire you. But he should be fine since he's not trying to take over the world like me.
I had big dreams then and my system worked until 'Nigeria happened' and it looked like the Nigerian system was particularly out to get me. I've done series of businesses (from selling chin chin in class to being a puff puff depo, to starting a poultry business, to food business, to supplying offices lunch. These businesses were in millions but 'Nigeria happened') over and over that when it got to millions the economy suddenly change and its back to square one.
But we won't give up. We'll keep on hustling.

Oluwatunmise912:
You can start a dry cleaning business

Get a fairly used steaming iron
Table

And a banner to advertise.

Oliviajones:
Coffee Stand. get a large umbrella, Make some pastries, hot water cooler and set up store in front of a busy stop. Mak e

for Nigeria or Europe?.

Shellsploit:
Fried akara and potatoes

this looks better. But the akara will be time consuming as a student. Maybe substitute the Ankara with yam.

Start minding your business with the 20K

My guy chop first.

crazygod:

As a student, will it be feasible considering that laundry business is time tasking especially if he doesn't have washing machine.
To the Op, if you can get a good clipper, you can start a mobile barbing business. Just inform your colleagues and whoever needs home/hostel service, you will be there.

mobile barbing u say?. They no dey learn barbing again or Ops tell u say he be barber.

Amazon Kindle Publishing if you have a laptop.
The 20k can pay for the mentorship program and you can start earning without much investment.

You can start publishing and earning more without investing money as long as you implement everything you learn and can start investing in paid contents, tools and book covers later.

You can check out my thread about Amazon Kindle Publishing.

Chairman! You want to collect the poor guy's 20k to teach him how to make money?��

inoki247:
lol start playing 2 odds with it I don't know wetin 20k wan du.....


The only beta option I have for u is to go look for a beta location at doz GRA gate or a good location nd be selling fruits lik all doz aboki...

I see them buy a single water melon for 200 naira and be making like 800 to 600 naira with one...

this one for good oh but an average Nigeria student will prefer egba to fruit and considering the fact that he will have to go for lectures which means he has nite alone to sale the fruit and they are perishable items.

taofeek11:

What about the cost of transport. It's futile
