One of the most staple foods around is rice. And there are some countries that don't produce enough rice but have to depend on importation. From which country do you think it would be viable to import rice to sell in Africa?
From which country can I import rice to sell in my Africa?

I think one can easily import rice from Thailand. They always have fake prices since they are the world's largest producers.
India is also a great producer of rice that one can import from. I also think Malaysia has rice. But you have to understand the local market to choose a importation location.

When it comes to rice, one of the best countries you can import rice from is Thailand, china, india and Vietnam.
India is the biggest producer of rice in the world. Thailand is a major producer too. I would rather import from India if I was into the business of importing rice.
Importation of rice is illegal in Nigeria now. It is contraband. You can buy a lot of rice in Nigeria here. There is enough rice in Benue, Yola, Adamawa, Ebonyi state, kogi state etc. Don't risk your money or you will make custom officers more rich.
Does Nigerian rice production have enough capacity to feed the whole country? I still see foreign rice though in the market.
