You can pick up any product sample, take it to China and they will manufacture the exact replica very cheap and affordable. However, I do not encourage you to do that except you obtained the right from the original product maker.In the previous article I wrote yesterday, I explained How to import goods from China to Nigeria in easy and simple steps. Now let's take a look at some of the hottest products you can import from China and sell in Nigeria.

They sell extremely fast in Nigeria and at high profit margin.

- Wrist Watches: More than 70% of wrist watches worn by the average Nigerians are made in china. My brand new original wrist watch (TAG Heuer) cost N350,000 while the fake made in China sold in Idumota market cost N500 - N1,000 at retail price and they looks quite similar to mine (-..-).

7. Household Utensils
Things like kerosene stoves. There is one particular kind of kerosene stove that is not common in Nigeria and I believe it will sell very well in Nigeria. I got it in Japan, it uses single wick and battery that enables it to light automatically without the need of matches. It burns like gas cooker and does not produce black fume.
Such product is going be a massive hit in Nigeria especially if it's cheap. The one I got in Japan cost about N20,000. I am sure the China version of it will be a lot more cheaper enough for people to afford it easily. The first person to grab this opportunity will have to thank me later.
