Here in my country, there are some set of people who learn that you are from a particular tribe and they would not want to associate with you or even gave any business with you.

This got me wondering if tribe affects the way people think in business or so. Some people always want to make sure that they check your tribe whenever you want to have anything with them.

Does this really matter?
Is tribe really necessary while wanting to do a business with someone?

The tribe has nothing to do with the business. However, there are some places in country that certain tribe like to dominate and make business over there.

This happens everywhere and I think in any part of the world so one thing I do is make sure that the business I’m willing to have is done in a place where they all are not tribalistic

That's why as a business person, you have to rise and be so excellent that people would forget your tribe when giving you jobs simply because you are very excellent.

It is a normal thing, that is called racism or lowering the esteem of the tribal folks. They might have no education or they have experience differences so that matters most. Fear of the unknown might be the cause.

Tribe doesn't really have anything to do with business, but there are cases where certain type of business are associated with a particular tribe simply because it's more common over there. Let's take shoe making in Nigeria for example, they mostly associate it to the northerners but there are others who do it.

If I were the business owner, I would ensure that every customer is treated fairly, regardless of their tribal background. It is unfortunate that this kind of discrimination exists in other places.

I think business should not be based on tribe or religion. Business is global and this is what brings people together. Once there are needs there are people to help solve them..
