Folks,
are you aware of this? You can make a staggering amount of money here in
Nigeria, by exporting bitter kola. Bitter Kola or Garcinia Kola is a seed with great medicinal value. It is found
abundantly in sub-Saharan Africa especially in Nigeria, where it is held in
high esteem on the traditional front.
WHY YOU SHOULD
START A BITTER KOLA EXPORT BUSINESS TODAY
The
demand for bitter kola in the international market has been on the high for
some time now. This is because the seed is used in the pharmaceutical and food
processing industries for the production of drugs, energy drinks, and other
products. The demand is particularly high in countries such as the USA, Britain, Germany, France, Japan, India
and some other Asian countries.
The
above statements drive home the fact that there is a lot of money to be made in
buying bitter kola and exporting it to countries where it is required
industrially. So, if you are living in a country like Nigeria, where bitter
kola is very abundant, then you should consider starting a business that
exports the commodity.
Bitter
kola export business is very lucrative, as it fetches 100 percent profit or
more per export sale. Anyone can venture into the business, since it does not
require huge capital or technical know-how.
HOW TO MAKE MONEY
FAST IN NIGERIA BY EXPORTING BITTER KOLA
In the
international market, bitter kola is required in either the fresh or the dried
form. But since most buyers prefer the dried form, the seeds must be carefully
dried in such a way that the color and taste are not altered. Now, let’s look
at the steps involved in the bitter kola export business.
FIND BUYERS
Locating
buyers is the most important step involved in the bitter kola export business owing
to the fact that without buyers, you won’t make sales. Since most exporters
keep the links to their buyers as trade secrets, you will need to take either
of two routes to get this information. You can consult with veterans in the
business to learn how to connect with potential buyers or search the web for
the contacts of potential buyers. After getting the contacts, you will need to
send a proposal to the contact. If they are willing to do business with you,
then you can go ahead to get your bitter kola seeds and package them for
export.
SOURCE FOR
THE BITTER KOLA SEEDS
Before
packaging bitter kola seeds in bags, you have to source for them. Since bitter
kola is mostly grown in rural areas, you will need to find high quality
varieties at cheap prices in these areas. So, your first task as a bitter kola
export merchant is to find reliable suppliers of high quality bitter kola. To
ease this task, you can make inquiries from veterans in the business.
Dry
the seeds, if possible
If you
don’t have the facilities or the time to dry the seeds yourself, you will have
to buy already dried seeds each time. However, there are times when all you can
get are fresh seeds, which require drying before they can be exported. There
are three methods of drying bitter kola seeds:
-Sun drying
-Mechanical drying (which involves the use of machines)
-Natural drying
Although
sun drying is the method adopted by most farmers in the producing areas, most
buyers don’t buy sun dried bitter kola, as it affects some of the natural
properties of the seeds. So, the natural drying method is highly recommended. The
natural drying method leaves the color as well as the chemical makeup of the
bitter kola seeds intact. This method simply involves spreading the seeds out
on a clean surface in a room where they cannot be reached by sun light or
moisture. In about 4-5 days, the seeds will be dried and ready for export.
ENSURE
QUALITY CONTROL
Your
bitter kola seeds must be of high quality, which partly implies that they must
be free of impurities such as stones, sand, dust, dirt, nylon, paper, leaves,
and so on. Aside that some of these “extra” particles can add unnecessary
weight, exporting packages containing impurities can discourage buyers from
subsequent deals with you. In addition, your bitter kola seeds must not be
adulterated in any way. They must be exported in their natural form.
PACKAGING
YOUR BITTER KOLA
While
there is no standard packaging method for packaging or bagging bitter kola, you
will need to package your bitter kola seeds carefully to ensure the
preservation of seed quality as well as protection of the seeds. You must bear
in mind that air-tight bags are not used to package bitter kola seeds, as
aeration is needed to keep the seeds fine.
EXPORTING
YOUR BITTER KOLA
After
packaging your bitter kola seeds, it’s time to export. You can use either the
standard postal service in your state or country (NIPOST in the case of
Nigeria) or any of the international private courier companies (DHL, UPS, etc).
Folks,
have you heard this? Many Nigerian exporters have been defrauded of huge amount
of money in the process of exporting commodities to foreign countries. Do you
know why? They were not trained on export operations, management,
documentations and the best methods of payment in export trade. This is
terrible!!! Nigerians cannot continue to lose money to foreigners in the course
of export business. Exporters, why don’t you get a practical manual that
teaches the stages of export trade from processing and packaging of commodities
to receipt of payment by the foreign buyers. It teaches export operations,
export management, export documentations and methods of payment in export
trade? It is a contemporary step-by-step guide to export trade. It tells all
the contemporary dynamics in export trade. To get it, click on the link below:
