Good day nairalanders

I wanna seek advise on behalf of my parent. My dad is a road side mechanic while Mum is a petty trader. Dad is 55yrs while Mum is 52yrs. I wanna ask what type of Business can I set up for my parent based on the Economy growth of the country.
I plan setting up a mini mart for my mum earlier buy after asking my sister about it she said it’s not a good business in of profitability.
Kindly help to suggest what type of Business I can set up for both of them so I can start working on it.

Mennnnnnnn,get your dad a keke and let the man hustle.. That's the surest lucrative business right now..As for your momsy,I don't know.. Perhaps let others come in and help out..

I just completed a 5 section of Mini flat fully furnished for them so they can be collecting funds from it and use it for anything they want and also a 3 bedroom where they will be staying though dad doesn’t know about this yet. I just want a business I can set up for them since they like going to work. I vividly dropping 100k at home some months ago telling them they should not go to work and stay at home for a month and take good rest. only for my jnr sister to call me after I don go back to sch say popsy don start work back oo I just weak that day lols.

You be student? . Bro,abeg where una dey see all these una money self?
Jokes Apart,I understand your point cha..

Mjshexy:
Go ahead with your plan for mum while you can set up a mechanic workshop for dad with a car wash by the side. With these, they can employ people to work for them

But someone told me mini mart is not that lucrative

Mjshexy:
Or you go with a restaurant instead

This one also makes sense sha but Mum never do this before ooo lols and also ion want job that’s gonna require stress for them

Open a cement business for them both to manage

Oya na

Restaurant business for both of them.
Dad doing while mum serves
Foods sellers will always make money
Or
if na Lagos state, then open Borehole water for them.
Or
Open cement store for your dad while your mum do her restaurant thing

Please let us know where they are settled. If they are in the rural areas, get an iron bender or those guys who work with irons and construct a big and sizeable Tank like 400litres and get kerosene from depot and transport it to them in village.

Mama can be selling the kerosene at her own pace and effortlessly make money from the product. No matter how scarce it is, kerosene is needed in the village.

For Baba, as baba to the project manager for this. He has to be overseeing the entire process. They will be known for this business in the whole area and they would not be exposed to any health challenge of any kind as they age.

Why not stylishly ask them what they like in of business.

There is no need to establish any business for them. According to my brother Righteous2, the world will be coming to an end any moment from now. So advice your parent to sit at home and prepare for the rapture.
