Should you consider starting a business in a student/school area in Nigeria? Should you?

Well, in a business-world, every business person seeks for gain. To make gain, the roll-out range definitely should be high. Come to think of it, between a student area and a normal area, which of them seems to crowd-fill? Your answer is good as ours. We’re certain your answer is “School area!”. This is as a result of having larger needy-group of individuals whom are seems paddled together in a particular geographical location.

But considering the fact that student environment draws larger patronage to a business, it doesn’t imply to all businesses – they’re some certain businesses that works in this area. For instance, a car dealer. A car dealer can end up selling few or no car in a student environment simply because larger percent of students doesn’t need a personal car at that particular moment… “law of WANT and NEED”. A student WANTS a car but NEEDS food.

However, we’ve compiled list of 35 Businesses you can invest in a school or student area (Via ANE Wiki). Enjoy!…

1. Football Viewing center

Football Viewing center

Who doesn’t watch football? Larger percent of students, male students especially, are lovers of football, and hardly can afford not streaming their favorite club’s game on play-days. However, not every students can afford the cost of cabled network to watch football. Opening a center where students can patronize and watch games definitely wouldn’t be a bad idea. Also make sure the environment is conducive…

 

2. Guest House | Hotel

Guest House | Hotel

Contrary to dictionary definition of “hotel” which says; It’s “A building where travellers can pay for lodging and meals and other services”.Hotels isn’t meant for travelers only, residents can also book a space and go have a good time. In this case, some students, sometimes might want to have a chill-out moment, maybe with their partners or alone. Constructing an hotel would be very lucrative. However, you should be price-considerate because not every students has the potential to afford a high-price hotel. Remember to add swimming pool – STUDENT LOVES IT.

 

3. Chemist Shop

Chemist Shop

“Health is wealth”. Yes, HOSPITAL is “A health facility where patients receive treatment”, but not all hospital has attached-store for selling drugs and related health materials. A place like Nigeria where you’d have to book a card before being allowed to see a doctor, who would want to visit a hospital because of ordinary headache that can be cured with quick-get-drugs?
So opening a chemist shop in this area would be very welcoming as many students can easily get health-materials within a stone-throw reach. Unfortunately, this type of business isn’t for everyone, but for HEALTH EXPERTS with official licensed certificate. If you’re one, what are you still waiting for? Opt-in and make your dough(money)!
Also remember to include selling of condoms, pads, first-aid materials, etc… You definitely would sell!.

 

4. Buka | Mama-Put | Hole In The Wall | Canteen

Buka | Mama-Put | Hole In The Wall | Canteen

Not all lecture hours permits cooking in the house before departing for class. Even when a student prepares a dish at home, majority feel embarrass to take it to class, of course, isn’t an higher-institution individuals big boys and big girls already?
Wherefore; starting a food canteen in this area wouldn’t be a bad idea. Don’t forget to make it conducive and welcoming, you’ll sell big.

 

5. School/Student Materials

School/Student Materials

School/Student and School/Student Materials are like Romeo and Juliet – Yeah, lovers!. They can’t do without each other.
School is the farm, materials are the farm tools/equipment. What’s the point of going to farm without your cutlass, hoe and other farm materials?
This makes school materials essential in this area. Every student needs Pen, Book, Pencil, and every other education accessories before being recognize as a student, like, what’s point of attending lectures without those?

 

6. Clothing Store | Boutique

Clothing Store | Boutique

Going to college doesn’t mean “don’t change your wardrobe”.  It doesn’t mean “change your wardrobe or turn fashionista, either”.
Apart from entertainers, researches has shown that students are the next category of individuals whom follows trends, and always want to feel among.
Starting a clothing store in this area is a very good thing.

 

7. Hair/Barbing Saloon

Hair/Barbing Saloon

Who doesn’t want to have a hair-cut? Students shaves and have haircut almost every week.

One would spend almost-beyond pocket before locating a nearby bank in this area. Kicking-off a Point Of Sale service in this in area would be very cool.

 

10. Provision Store

Provision Store

“Reading without food leads to reading amiss”. Students needs food as much as they need oxygen. Starting a provision store would be pretty amazing. However, don’t just sell milk, milo etc., add Garri, Sugar, Kuli-Kuli, Groundnut and every other materials that makes Garri saucy. 😛

 

11. Food Stuffs | Farm Produce

Food Stuffs | Farm Produce

Unlike “Provision Store”, this is mainly FOOD STUFFS. Ranging from Yam to Beans and even Rice. Food stuffs brought to the school by a student can’t last throughout a calendar year of a school. Which definitely means there’s gotta be time of refilling…
