Helping Nigerian Art Reach U.S. Buyers – One Shipment at a Time

Despite growing demand, too much beautiful Nigerian art never makes it to the U.S.—not because it isn’t valuable, but because it isn’t export-ready. Missing documents, poor packaging, and customs issues often prevent talented artists from reaching global buyers. Mbariket bridges that gap. With over 5 years of experience importing Nigerian art into the U.S., we offer expert advisory services that guide artists and exporters every step of the way. From export documentation and packaging to connecting with U.S. buyers on platforms like Amazon and Walmart—we help your creativity cross borders smoothly, safely, and successfully. Want to take your art to America? Let’s talk.   https://mbariket.com

Nigeria’s Construction Gap Is a Goldmine—If We Train the Workforce

68.5% of Nigerian construction workers have never received formal training, and only 3.4% are trained regularly (American Journal of Engineering Research Study). That’s not just a stat—it’s a massive opportunity. Better training means better outcomes: safer projects, skilled jobs, and long-term trust—especially for diaspora-funded developments that demand quality. If we’re serious about building a stronger Nigeria, we must invest in people—not just cement and blocks. At Mbariket, we’re amplifying this message to raise the bar across the construction industry and beyond. Have you ever had a construction project go sideways in Nigeria? What would you have done differently? Let’s talk in the comments. #BuildNigeria #ConstructionOpportunity #SkilledWorkforce #DiasporaInvestments #MadeInNigeria #Mbariket #AfricaRising

Case Study: Repositioning Mbariket Nigerian Turning Sticks for the U.S. Market

Background Mbariket identified a unique opportunity to introduce traditional Nigerian turning sticks—historically used for stirring garri—to the U.S. market. While widely used in Nigeria for centuries, these wooden utensils were unknown to global consumers. Challenge • Perceived as a niche, ethnic-specific kitchen tool. • Unfamiliar to non-Nigerian audiences. • Needed a new narrative to appeal to global buyers. Strategy: Repositioning for Global Appeal Traditional Use: Stirring garri and Nigerian soups. Repositioned Use: Marketed as a handcrafted, eco-friendly stirring tool ideal for American gumbo, chili, stews, and soups. • Highlighted craftsmanship, sustainability, and durability. • Branded as a premium alternative to plastic or metal utensils. • Positioned within Southern U.S. and global home-cooking markets. Results & Key Takeaways ✅ Expanded Market Reach: Gained traction beyond the Nigerian community, attracting eco-conscious and culinary enthusiasts. ✅ Increased Sales & Demand: Successfully rebranded as a versatile, globally relevant kitchen tool. ✅ Proof That Positioning Matters: A traditional Nigerian product became a premium global item with the right messaging and branding. Conclusion Repositioning a product is not about changing its function but changing the perception to fit a broader audience. Mbariket’s success with turning sticks proves that local Nigerian products can thrive globally with the right strategy. Click or Tap to Shop Mbariket Turning Sticks on Amazon
