This is actually a very good question. When Dangote tried to got into the textile industry, things were a bit different. The biggest being that Nigeria mostly wore woven fabric (Ankara, shirting etc). Operating a woven factory is very complex and even at that time, a lot of the machinery that already being used were a bit outdated, so efficiency had dropped.
In our case now, most people are wearing knitwear (t-shirts, underwear, polos etc.), and producing textile for these isn’t as complex and can be modular. Example our textile mill makes 20-40 tons per month (enough for just 100-200,000 tshirts) which isn’t a lot but gives us enough flexibility to adapt to market forces. Also the available machines now are of similar quality with what’s being used everywhere else in the world, so efficiency is about the same.
Put all these together and having a great team (I’m incredibly lucky), operating efficiently, having a large Nigeria and West African population, we have a higher chance of success now. We’ve also been around since 2019 and we’ve been going stronger and stronger.

@Rxbremen @merokng When a whole dangote failed in the textile business, what made you think this guy will succeed in that industry?
