Electrical Accessories Business: Is Lagos, Warri or Enugu More Profitable?

Hello everyone, I am considering starting an electrical accessories business selling items such as wires, switches, breakers, sockets, conduit fittings and lighting materials. I would appreciate practical advice from people already in the trade. I am comparing Lagos along the Eleko–Ajah/Lekki-Epe axis, Warri and Enugu. What should I budget for shop rent and initial stock in each location? How quickly do electrical materials sell, especially with the level of construction along the Lekki-Epe corridor? I also want to understand the likely profit margins, level of competition and the best location for balancing setup costs with steady turnover. Honest recommendations and real experiences from business owners in these areas will be very helpful.

Beyond location, which of these cities gives a new seller the clearest path to steady demand for wires, switches, breakers, and lighting materials?

Are you planning to sell mainly to households, electricians, or construction projects?

The product range is broad, so profitability may depend as much on what moves consistently as on whether the shop is in Lagos, Warri, or Enugu.

I would not assume Lagos is automatically the better option just because it is larger; a smaller market can still suit a focused electrical accessories business.

Compare expected rent, supplier access, and the specific items customers ask for before choosing. Starting with faster-moving basics may help control stock risk.
