I always encourage Diaspora to start small, you asked me WHY , so that you learn as you grow, there are many that didn' want  your enterprise to succeed. If you start with a giant project people will beleive that you have loads fo money to splash at them

Let me give you one Cottage/Small Scale enterprise you can start in Africa, and you will be making and live comfortably in any part of motherland(Africa)

CASSAVA CAKE PROCESSING

YOU need only two set of machines,with people that will do the job and you are set

The process is simple 

1Get fresh cassava tubers

2 people to peel the cassava

3 the machine to grind the cassava

4 Put the cassava in jute ag and Press

Others are ready to buy these products from you. Even i know of somebody that they deposited money up to 9 months to her just to be producing cassava CAKE. 

I helped her to get her machines and the others was fabricated in Africa. This saved her more money than going to Africa to purchase these machines, and its of good quality than those they sell in Africa, some of which doesn't comply wtih the international standard. 

Don't get me wrong not that these machines will not work but for how long ?

There are diferent type of machine you can used, this will depend on where you envisage to set up your cottage enterprise. 


AS all of us know many african countries electricity is epileptic (not reliable), so you use alternative energy source.

Start with a machine that can produce 2-3 tonnes per shift. 

2 tonnnes of cassava tuber gives up to 1 ton of cassava cake, when selling this finished product you can make up to 250-300% gain*

If another entrepreneur turn this cassava cake into cassava flour (HQCF), he/she will make 400%-500%* gain if well processed.
