Hello, I shall be discussing businesses with you and offering practical solutions for start ups especially in Africa. Today we shall talk about the practical aspect of peanut production also known as groundnut burgur.
No doubt you love groundnut burger which is popularly known as peanuts in Nigeria. Peanuts are gradually becoming a norm for most Nigerian families and even petty business people. I love to make groundnut burgur but each time I make them I make atleast a basin or bucket so I could supply to shop owners around my neighborhood.
They enjoy my burger that always they want me to make them. Sometimes they sell of it in less than three hours. Peanuts could be stressful but also a good way to have start ups. I however think that groundnuts are on the high side, but we also find new stick of groundnuts in the market for less than a dollar.
How I Make My Peanuts
We can say that peanuts or food in general can be distinguished by your ingredients. We have various kinds of bread bit it is labels and taste that differentiate them. Like me peanuts what you put in them and the flavours you use make it stand out.
