This is a very lucrative business here in Nigeria, although it needs quite a lot of investment to start up. You need a busy location, staff and then some clever promotion tactics since advertising is not allowed.

It is a good business because people usually need medicines to be cured. They are the ones who can provide this concern.

Pharmaceutical business is not a business you can start without licence. Drug business is highly regulated in Nigeria. Secondly, you must be qualified to practice dispensing drugs. Without licence and qualifications, you can end up putting yourself in trouble.

You need a lot of licensing to set up this business. There must be a license from a recognized pharmacist for you to start the business. It requires a lot for a non pharmacist to be able to start.
