I found
this piece interesting and decided to share it with you. The time to always
start is NOW! Even if you live outside the African continent, prospects for collaboration
in these business opportunities abound. We at The Next Level with Chukwuemeka are open to such collaborations.
Enjoy the write-up.
Are you wondering in
which sectors you will find the most profitable business opportunities in
Africa? Oil revenues? Nope, not for today’s fast emerging African entrepreneurs
and millionaires!
Last year, there were several inspiring success stories of African entrepreneurs who built successful businesses out of simple everyday needs, problems and challenges. 2015 (and beyond) will be a lot better. I can feel it already!
It’s true there are
lots of amazing business opportunities in Africa. However, it can get very
confusing if you don’t know where to look. In this article, I’ll show you ten
of the hottest business opportunities in Africa that will create more
successful entrepreneurs and millionaires in 2015 (and beyond).
‘The best place to
find gold is to look where it has been found before.’ The opportunities in this
article have created some of the biggest successes Africa has ever seen. If you
want to increase your chances of building a successful business in 2015 (and
beyond), these opportunities could make your dream come true.
Let’s meet them…
Media
and Entertainment
Africa’s film
industry has become a global and cultural phenomenon that enjoys a huge
following within and outside the continent.
The industry serves
an audience that’s hungry for African stories of love, drama, intrigue, comedy,
redemption, action and more. It’s no surprise that Africa’s film industry is
currently the third largest in the world behind Hollywood and India’s
“Bollywood”.
‘30 Days in Atlanta‘
is a Nigerian romantic comedy film that was released in late 2014. Africa
releases hundreds of films every year but this one has totally changed the
game. Just seven weeks after its release, ’30 Days in Atlanta’ grossed over
$500,000! It’s the largest revenues ever made by a single African movie! This
is great news for the continent and a sign of more high-grossing blockbusters
to come!

Jason Njoku who
lived in Manchester, UK, made use of the demands in the film industry in 2011.
He founded iRoko TV – an idea that now turned into Africa’s most powerful
online movie platform. Jason has since moved to Nigeria and today he is one of
Africa’s youngest millionaires.
But it’s not just
the Africa’s film industry that’s on the rise. African music has become hot
cakes too! From Nigeria to South Africa, there’s a wave of raw and promising
music talents that is sweeping across the continent. 2015 will surely be an
interesting year for Africa’s entertainment industry – and there are
opportunities for you!
Food
& Agribusiness
The opportunities in
Africa’s food and agribusiness space remain huge and will not go out of fashion
anytime soon. With over one billion people to feed, Africa’s food and
agribusiness market is a multi-billion dollar opportunity for entrepreneurs who
know where to look.
Food production is
still a huge and breath-taking opportunity. Grains, milk and all sorts of raw
and semi-processed agro-products are still imported into Africa even though the
continent has an enormous capacity to produce these. Entrepreneurs who can
produce food products locally could reap very huge rewards.
The opportunities in
food and agribusiness cover several different products across the value chain.
In 2015, I expect that several African entrepreneurs will make a fortune in
this industry. The possibilities are endless and largely unexplored.
