Following the increasing calls from the likes of Ben Murray Bruce et al, for Nigerians to start patronizing made in Nigeria goods and services, i’ve decided to write this article to enlighten you guys on the things you stand to gain when you patronize indigenious products.
Here are the Top Reasons Why You Should Start Patronizing Made-In-Nigeria products
​
​
1. Buying made in Nigeria goods will boost employment generation in the country, as the multiplier effect of patronising local products is the demand of labour.
2. Buying indigenous goods not only keeps the wealth in our country by boosting our gross domestic product, but it also sustains & increases the prosperity of the nation.
3. Patronizing made in nigeria bring about socioeconomic advancement of the country, usually by improvements in metrics such as GDP, life expectancy, literacy, levels of employment, etc.
4. Buying locally enables us to invest directly into our economy Instead of another country’s.
