It was Zambian entrepreneur Monica Musonda’s experience as a lawyer at Dangote Group – a Nigerian multinational founded by one of Africa’s richest men, Aliko Dangote – that inspired her to take the plunge, quit her job and start Zambia-based Java Foods. She frequently accompanied Dangote on business trips and recalls that when they visited Zambia, he would ask: ‘Where are the Zambian businessmen? Why aren’t there more, and why are they not taking up the opportunities?’

1. Have a clear understanding of what consumers want, and how much they’re prepared to pay for it. What might seem to be a fantastic innovation is not really such a great idea if no-one is willing to open their wallets for it.

2. Bigger companies are more likely to survive over the long term. To be a well-run and profitable business, it’s all about scale.

3. Keep expenses to a minimum until the company starts to generate sustainable cash flow. Forget about fancy offices or the most expensive Toyotas before the business can stand on its own feet.—Howwemadeitinafrica
