Which Business Would You Start With $50,000 in Ghana? 

I m working on bringing a natural hair , skin care and healing business to Ghana in 6 months. From my business I want to teach and Guide other women on how to use there creative minds in starting their own business.

Definitely a restaurant. Agriculture. Trade school. All good ideas.

Depends on the "WHY"...are you starting a business for security or for significance (impacting other peoples lives,ie,creating jobs,providing affordable goods and services etc)..personally i'm at a "struggling" stage in life,so with $50,000 i'll most likely start a business for the purpose of security,the best business in this case would be in investment banking.With $50,000 i'll shop around for the best interest rates and let my money work for me,with that,you wouldn't have to worry about operating costs,maintenance costs etc....atleast that's what i did with $47,000...

okay so my idea may not start off as a business but I want to invest in education. so right now I have my mind set on building a massive library catering to African history and business plus IT, so its a safe environment for people to come and get motivation and knowledge which can lead to them starting own businesses.

The young lady at 5:02 had the most amazing collar bones I've ever seen in my entire life! ........PROCESSING PLANTS! One business idea that is already there, regarding agriculture, is getting the machines to process cocoa. Ghana is the #1 producer and has the best crop of cocoa but sells it cheap to other parts of the world that have the machinery to process it; they make the real money off of Africa's crop. So many examples of this.

I enjoyed the video, you have to do part 2 for this. I would like to hear to hear the brother with agricultural idea a lot more. His idea was a great one. Please do a part two, also I would like to put the link of the website on the video or throughout the video to promote the website. Waiting on part 2, maybe you can go to a school and asked students the same questions.

Great video and ideas! I agree with all of the ideas presented and have a few of my own. Most importantly, I agree with the emphasis placed on working with LIKE MINDED people! That is key and imperative! Thanks for sharing. BTW, your hair and the the young ladies hair looks beautiful. Keep rocking the natural hair my sisters. Shalom!

Which part of Ghana and neighborhood was this survey taken in sister? I will be traveling from the states to Ghana, for the first time this month for the "New Years". I see there's a lot of potential there, with clear minded young African peoples. Now! I believe that we, as Africans that were trained in the west, need to be very careful in our business pratices in our motherland... A lot of our problems are existing because we're trying to copy, to our detriment, the sick European business model (their conceived way of living on Earth). Since you come from the western point of view just like me, our job as Africans that want to help regenerate Africa together with ourselves, is to create innovative and sustainable/humane business models, that doesn't exploit our people nor ourselves....! When you mentioned real estate, i got scared because you know the exploitative business models the west has, when it comes to "Real Estates", which comes from "Royal Control..." We need to become harmoniously innovative, to not continue the job of the exploitating our own people! Much love! Love your work! Thanks!

That was really nice 👍🏾,, got me thinking 💭, Thanks again Goddess!!!! ✌🏾

Agriculture would be my choice. Though it can be a challenge whem living in the UK if you have "tenant farmers" As they tend not to be 100% transparent with crop yields.....

agriculture is definitely the one in my opinion. The young man head is screwed on I wish I could meet him

Food and child care are very good to invest in anywhere in the world

Great video by the way!!! It seems like Ghana has great potential for ideas and is very exciting!!

Caribbean fusion, farming and IT, as well as farming, perfect areas.

Love It ideas. That guy is the future protect him. IT for agriculture love it. Africa needs it.

That young woman was on the ball farming is the best way to go

Just focus on these two important areas. Real Estate and Agriculture. U will be a millionaire with the right Tech and innovations!

LOVING all these videos boo!!! :)

I have a few business ideas with starting a poultry farm and also tomato paste business here because almost all Ghanaians use tomatoes in cooking and chicken and eggs are also on a high demand here . Currently going under training in some farms on starting my own soon.

That second young man was on to something. I think fish farming can be lucrative, but requires a lot of time and patience.

I would start a home health agency since over there they believe in taking care of the geriatrics at home. Train nursing aides to go into the home and help the family take care of their aging family.

Shout out to that business man. He is on point!

I would start a Marijuana Export business. Get license from government to purchase from local growers (lots of them in Ghana ) and export to Canada where Marijuana is legal and there is shortage.

So I actually love your idea regarding property business. My question, are properties selling that well in Ghana to be able to continue building and selling? Love to hear back you and other people here as well.

A farm + hardware + grocery store. With another $50,000, I'd start a secondary school.

I'm in Tanzania, great job lady

If I had 50,000, I will buy land and build a big house and invest with my husband IT business! Also I will have a business making me own Shea butter for the skin and hair with other ingredients to make the skin soft and moisturizer! I will make soap too❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽

Exotic coffee and tea shop

Agriculture, Livestock Farming. With $50,000 raw cash, I am planning to buy 1 acre of land in Africa when USA international airport is open, I am going to fence the 1 acre land, put borehole on the line, building security house in the front, building boys quarter at the back of the land where workers will be staying, building a very big 3 greenhouses next to one another then start commercial indoor free rage Poultry, Eggs Production(layers) Turkey inside one of each greenhouse. Start production, very lucrative.

Might be a good idea to interview more matured, business-savvy folk in future. With the exception of the second chap who suggested an investment in agriculture, all the others didn't really appear to have a clue, as they all appeared to be young students with little experience or know-how. Would have been good to interview people with deep understanding (if not experience) of setting up businesses in Ghana, as they'd have a better idea of what would generate good business income from a $50k investment.

All my tools are there I have all the hand electric tools to build a houses

Agriculture guy is cute plus I agree with his business plan. lol

Maybe someone can address this question. I got information from some source I can't recall that a foreigner couldn't obtain a business license in Ghana unless the following conditions and limitations were met. 1. A one million dollar (US) or more investment was dedicated to launch the business - OR 2. A native Ghanaian controlled at least 50% business ownership - OR 3. The business was either a manufacturing or export business that employed native Ghanaians. Any responses appreciated.

Thank you for showcasing Ghana.

I would look linto a wind and sun solar energy on my house that i can store and share along with probably sn herbal garden and a art gallery

Just joined your channel from Wode Maya family

I really love this video

Living in the US, and don't have the $50,000 or the good credit to start your business?...We can get you to "GOOD CREDIT STATUS" Blessings to All!

Thanks

Do they need welding services in Ghana? Because I'm going back to college to finish my trade.

With 150,000usd from three people will get me at least 10-20plots at a cool place make the drains electricity water you know how it goes here 60%down 20and two

Here in American that is called flipping houses. If you buy a property and own the property for less than 1 year then flip it you will have to pay 15- 28% tax on your profit from selling the house. However if the property is your home and you have lived in it for at least 2 years, then sell it you don't have to pay taxes on the profit. What percent tax do you pay in Ghana?

Natural Ghana can you please ask your husband if electrical contracting business is good in Ghana my skill set is electrician Airconditioning Refrigeration and solar panel installation from the uk

Who is this guy talking about agriculture I’m doing Permaculture training coming to Ghana in September

Do they use home health services there?

If you were to open a restaurant you or your husband would have to be the only ones allowed to ring up the sales!!!!!

With 50,000,usd fine but how fast can you make back the 50,000usd

Pls what about bread baking

Restaurant is good because local salaries are low.

You r very pretty ngl

$50,000 ooow, nop I think it depends on what you wanna invest not that huge amount of money

I would like for us to get together

contact me if your dream to start a property business kicks off!Im also in the uk and alomost finished my project in Amasamen. I think if you have a group of people especially with uk experience our mindset wouldnt be somewhat different!

Can you even get a business permit with 50,000? I thought you had to have 500,000 to get a business permit

Don’t forget to mention the corruption!
