Thank you. I watch your video to learn how to do business. In this one, I learned how to generate multiple income streams (training, hotel supplies, retail, daily delivery, events). In the leather bag guy, I learned about different marketing avenues like university trade fairs and trade fairs.

As an African American diaspora I can say that to add value back to our culture can be thru investments and partnerships. Thanks my lovely brother. Just know I love you all so very much ❤️

Please let’s support our own not Chinese.

that is why the unemployment is very high. our corrupt leadership deindustrialized the country.

But can't the Local/State Government Set-Up or Encorage (Private) in the building of a Candle Factory, Crucial for this important Industry which could really help in Generating more Revenue for the State instead of alway waiting for Allocations from the Fed. Government. Really Sad.

we need to do more of buying made in Nigeria

😁 'Promo SM'

Can I get the Alhaji number?

Where is this market located in Abeokuta

The interviewer talks 👄 too much and he didn't allow the sellers to talk at all. No one can try that nonsense in China.

If Nigeria stop buying China made and buy the local made that will help build the business and keep the culture

Make money and put it all back into the business

Ng government should BAN the importation of such! Nigerian should NOT buy the imported fabric!

China will never allow a Nigerian to own these in their country.Why did you teach your trade to a Chinese?

please interviewer , let your people talk, you are talking to much, allow people to talk

Effects of APC government live before our eyes.

Look at how Nigeria continues to regress. With Fulani in power, Nigeria can never progress. The south needs to break away. If Biafra, and Yoruba Nation become independent, they can plan their own economies to benefit their people.

Osogbo is the Ilu-Aro original

I love this, you should expand it.

Of course synthetic material cannot be competitive in prices with natural cotton fabrics. The government needs to protect the locally produced genuine textile products by imposing heavy tarrifs on those fake imports.

❤❤❤❤

A nation that opens its door for all imported products will never grow. Nigeria needs to do something.

I wonder why are our leaders are going around the world looking for foreign investments when they have not developed what they have at home?

stop using the word civilisation it is westernisation .

This interviewer talks way too much and not letting the interviewee talk

This production process and manufacturing process are all intellectual properties that must be protected. Foreigners will come and steal this production know-how and monetize it.

We should also seriously consider mechanising the production process

The local and federal governments MUST realize how important this industry is and invest in the value chain. The government should invest in candle, ink, dye, cotton manufacturing to make sure the value chain is domesticated.

China 🇨🇳 stealing patent?

Everyone in Nigeria left everything for the oil & Gas is the south instead of each region focusing on what they know. Every month, federal govt share allocation. ..

Boss you really surprise me

Watching from Uk 🇬🇧 ,this should be promoted by the Nigerian government.

Subscribed.

can those fabric faded if erson watch it or dry clean it

Great guest, great brand, great conversation.

Don't blame the Chinese, it's Nigerian businessmen that go to China and request to replicate those designs. Most of the importers are Nigerians. You like blaming others for the greed of Africans..

Why do we allow Chinese into everything? Why? Why wont our govt empower us? I make it a point not to buy anything african grom ali express.

Thanks for sharing .. .. very educative

Why expose all screct of your trade. Why will someone else not steal it. Go back to basics for raw materials.

Maybe this business could be modernized introducing robots. Though it would have a negative effect because there could be loss of certian jobs but it would attract another generation to it. Innovation and new business models ( including web technology/apps) would be used to scale up the selling process. But will the locals embrace the change???

Please keep culture it’s d best

So china is making billions,what did your community,country and Africa get then from it.

Chinese are copycats. Is not a criticism simply a fact. Thats how they got rich, copying the west and selling to the poor masses around the world, cheap knock offs of original labels e.g. rolex. It is simply their business model.

This is informative and educative video

China made adire should be ban and the government should help our local marketers in producting adeire with modern Machineries

Great job on the video! This episode is definitely the best one so far. @ 35:21, you reaffirmed my faith in the Buy Nigeria project and showcased the immense potential of doing business in Nigeria. I have a suggestion to preserve and enhance the value of this heritage: integrating technology such as QR codes embedded on each handmade Adire to make them traceable. Collaboration with market unions, including influential figures like your aunt, could improve the dye section and promote ethical production practices. Archiving vintage designs and granting property rights to original designs would also be beneficial. Creating a website and social media pages for awareness and updates on the process would further engage the community. Properly executed, these initiatives could attract investors to tap into the opportunities present. Well done!

Very very interesting thanks for the programme very informative 2 points your camera man needs to improve secondly l will be in touch 😊

It is important that value chains are broken down to the level where participation could be broader than what it is actually. If they can be done abroad, they can be done in Nigeria. Local investment in specific areas of the economy such as this will enable the system to perpetuate. We need to get organised.od bless Nigeria.

Sir, CAN'T Ogun State Government industrialise Adire, tie and dye, and Tanning of Fabrics Business? Won't that increase the IGR of Ogun State. Let Ogun State Government invest ₦100 Trillion. And preserve that industry.

We have wicked Wealthy Men in Nigeria and Africa at Large, whose Legacy has no Perpetuity... People don't want to save indigenous Jobs and no generational Works and industries are kept with Philanthropic Investment. The Fabrics industry, Tailoring Industry, the Leather industry... This one we are still eating "pomo" in Nigeria instead of making Leather and you see our Sciences in Nigeria is a Joke. We can produce ordinary Candle in Nigeria, We can't produce Dyes, We can't produce Machineries. How do we industrial? I am a second Generation of a Tailoring Firm of 6 Decades at my 11years in the Sewing industry I am so exhausted. Sir, I don't know who will help the Garment and Textiles industry in Nigeria.
