Nigeria has been importing Japanese used cars into the country for many years. We call them ‘Tokumbo’ cars. It means, coming in from outside the country in Yoruba language. The Ibos call it “Belgium”.
Apart from Nigeria, Japanese used cars are famous all over the world, you cannot beat them, people love those cars and the business has come to stay.
Japanese cars are generally reliable, people all over the world can attest to the reliability of Japanese cars; but reliability is not the only reason people love those cars, they are affordable and the quality is second to none. You cannot deny the high quality of Japanese cars; therefore the used ones will also exhibit excellent quality too.
It should not surprise you that almost every country in the world imports used Japanese cars. But the African continent is the biggest market for the Japanese used cars. The industry is huge and it is looking for businessmen and women with the right expertise to come into the market as big time players.
We are aware that many countries in Africa import a lot of these cars for obvious reasons; the continent is growing very fast and cars for personal and commercial purposes are needed by the population.
Just like we have agreed that many countries in Africa import Japanese used cars, Nigeria being the largest economy in Africa imports so much of these cars too. Therefore, our reason for bringing the methods for importing Japanese used cars to our esteemed members.
According to the National Automotive Council, Nigeria imports more than four Hundred Thousand (400, 000) cars annually and most of them are from Japan.
But you also know that large quantities of vehicles are smuggled into the country; so as to avoid payment of duties. So nobody can say that this is the actual number of cars imported into the country.
Importing Japanese used cars into the country is easy; we are going to show you the step by step approach to do the business.
Follow the following steps and you are in the business without many problems.
The first thing to do is to find a Reliable Supplier.
For you to successfully carryout the business of importing used Japanese cars into the country, you must first get a reliable supplier. In Japan, there are many used cars suppliers who export Japanese used cars to the rest of the world.
They are all over the internet, you can find one there but, you have to be sure that you are not choosing an inexperienced car exporter. You have to choose one who is not only experienced in the business but also reliable.
When you deal with an experienced and reliable exporter, you will be sure that you are getting value for your money.
You must make sure that the exporter has a website; and ask about them and other information about their services. If they are good, people should be able to talk good about them.
Go ahead and ask questions on forums and other online communities about them. Don’t just keep quiet and pay money to someone without first satisfying yourself about the quality of the exporter you are about to enter into such a relationship with.
The best way to even do this is to ask of their past customers and ask them to share their experiences about the exporter with you. You need not be in a hurry especially if you are importing direct from Japan without a middle man who is a Nigerian or someone known to you.
Take your time to get all relevant information you know that will aid you in making valid decisions. This is international trade, therefore be careful; you cannot be careful enough.
Just like importing from China, most Nigerians including our company have Nigerian representatives in China, so also there are many Nigeria representatives in Japan; take your time and look for the genuine ones before doing business in Japan.
But know that even if you do not know anybody, you can still import used cars from Japan.
We are continuing with the remaining part of the processes to be followed when importing used cars from Japan in our subsequent articles. Don’t jump into the business without arming yourself with all the information you need to succeed.
