1. Custard Manufacturing
In Africa, almost every ethnic group makes a different variety of food out of corn or Maize.
In Nigerian villages, towns and cities, people are used to what is called Ogi, Akamu (pap); this is corn starch, This is the local concept of Golden morn which is made from maize and soya protein by Nestle for adults.
When
the Europeans came, they came with what they called Custard. But it was
later known that the only difference is the coloring and flavor
that was added to the packaged corn.
It is very easy to produce custard. You can package it in small sachets and It is also very easy to market, particularly in bigger towns and cities where people are used to modern lifestyle.
Many Nigerians have come to depend on imported frozen meat, fish, chicken for quite a while now and this is in detriment of local poultry industry and the subsequent health implication because of the long voyage from China, Europe or wherever, most times the imported product are usually preserved with chemicals, some of which are said to be injurious to health.
A lot of people prefer not to go
through the stress of slaughtering and preparing live birds because
frozen chicken can easily be stored and used at will, thereby saving
time; and many people think it is cheap too.
