A beautiful country and for the time being.. a safe country. The problem with businesses in foreign country is that we never know what the country will be like the next week. In africa, all leaders are very corrupt and the police are corrupt, etc.. not as corrupt as in the U.S. though. I have been to Accra twice and am planning to go back on another visit either later this year or next... It is so peaceful there and the people are the greatest.

I think Nigeria or South Africa are the best places investors go, preferably Nigeria with ongoing democracy there now. Things are very effective and smooth there. I am also here in Nigeria for businesses as well, so I can say boldly that here is good for business most especially Imports and exports. Let me know your area of interest to deal with and try to help you out if you wish to come to Nigeria.

Good plan I Hope to own my own pharmacies when i return to Nigeria. I do not agree that all African Leaders are corrupt sorry just had to correct that because the western world is just as corrupt and they just perfected hiding their dirty laundry. Anyway start out with one then move up from there. One thing I would really advice you is to do the work with people you trust and would never stab you in the back. My mom did business with a friend in Lagos the shop did really well and the woman ran to Canada with all of the profit later own just and my mom resolved their differences just an example though. I hope your plans work.

The state department's web site would be a good place to start research:

Use letters f credit based upon what has accurately shipped. Never pay cash in international trade.
